Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing
- Observations
-
Wild type flies and flies containing mutant Gdh (71% activity compared to the wild type) were subjected to dietary restriction. Both wild type and mutant flies showed a significant increase in lifespan under dietary restriction compared to normal conditions. However, flies with mutant Gdh had a significantly longer lifespan (more than 14 days) than the wild type, demonstrating that decreased Gdh activity enhances the effects of dietary restriction.
