Dietary restriction induced longevity is mediated by nuclear receptor NHR-62 in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Dietary restriction (DR) extends lifespan in a wide variety of species, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Here we show that the Caenorhabditis elegans HNF4α-related nuclear hormone receptor NHR-62 is required for metabolic and physiologic responses associated with DR-induced lon...
