Age- and calorie-independent life span extension from dietary restriction by bacterial deprivation in <it>Caenorhabditis elegans</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Dietary restriction (DR) increases life span and delays age-associated disease in many organisms. The mechanism by which DR enhances longevity is not well understood.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Using bacterial food...
