A NII-led team has unravelled how C. elegans exposed to early-life, moderate stress in the form of dietary restriction are able to better handle chronic stress that comes with ageing and thereby increase longevity. The small stress also helps delaying certain age-onset diseases such as Huntington’s and Alzheimer’s. The role of dietary restriction in delaying … Continue reading NII unravels how diet restriction delays ageing, increases lifespan
