Abstract
Longevity, lipids and C. elegans
Highlights
The recent insight from the comparative approach has been to link membrane fatty acid composition to maximum lifespan [5]
Membrane fatty acid was linked to maximum lifespan (MLSP) variation among mammals [8]
The reason why membrane fatty acid composition is correlated with MLSP is because fatty acids differ greatly is their susceptibility to lipid peroxidation
Summary
The recent insight from the comparative approach has been to link membrane fatty acid composition to maximum lifespan [5]. Membrane fatty acid was linked to maximum lifespan (MLSP) variation among mammals [8]. The reason why membrane fatty acid composition is correlated with MLSP is because fatty acids differ greatly is their susceptibility to lipid peroxidation.
