Attenuated growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) signaling caused by mutations also increases the lifespan of mice, even those allowed to feed freely. In nematodes, the Daf16, mammalian Forkhead box O (FoxO) transcription factor, was shown to be required for lifespan extension in response to reduced IGF-1 signaling. Because DR also decreases the plasma concentration of IGF-1 in mammals, the IGF-1–FoxO axis may play a central role in the lifespan extension effect of DR and, thus, retardation of aging. Studies using knockout mice under DR conditions revealed the importance of FoxO1 and nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-like 2 (Nrf2) in tumor suppression, and FoxO3 in lifespan extension. Human genomic studies also identified a strong association between a FOXO3 single nucleotide polymorphism and longevity. The aging mechanism is the most important risk factor for disease and frailty in aging humans. Therefore, further research on the application of DR to humans, the development of compounds and drugs that mimic the effects of DR, and mechanisms underlying FOXO3 polymorphisms for longevity is highly relevant to extending the human health span., Yakugaku zasshi, 144(4), pp.403-409; 2024}, pages = {403--409}, title = {食餌制限モデルから見た老化制御メカニズム}, volume = {144}, year = {2024} }
