Functional and molecular mechanisms underlying reduced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation under dietary restricted feeding conditions
Dietary restriction (DR) across a wide phylogenetic range increases both mean and maximal lifespan by retarding the ageing process and delaying the onset and incidence of age-related pathologies. DR animals exhibit reduced tissue oxidative damage but anti-oxidant enzyme activities and other defence...
