Protein acetylation and aging

Aging (Albany NY). 2011 Oct;3(10):911-2. doi: 10.18632/aging.100398.

Abstract

Our results suggest the possible benefit of manipulating an intrinsic aging pathway that is independent of nutrition availability, a potential therapeutic route that might be able to bypass shortcomings of calorie restriction.
