What they say:
A study from the Institute of Healthy Ageing, Centre for Diabetes and Endocrinology, Department of Medicine, University College London, London WC1E 6JJ, UK shows that “Ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 signaling regulates mammalian life span.” This study was published, in the 2 October 2009 issue of the Journal “Science” (I.F: 31.477 ), by Prof Dominic J. Withers, Dr. Selman C and others.
What we say:
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports, for the first time, that: Switching to ketogenic diet may extend lifespan: The ketone metabolite β-hydroxybutyrate inhibits the expression of ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (p70S6 Kinase) and extends mammalian life span
Research findings to Therapeutic opportunity:
β-hydroxybutyrate, by increasing the expression of its target gene, it may suppress Ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (p70S6 Kinase) expression. Thereby, it may promote: (1) resistance to bone, immune, and motor dysfunction; (2) insulin sensitivity; and (3) longevity (fig. 1).
Figure 1. Mechanistic insight into how beta-hydroxy butyrate may extend lifespan. Beta-hydroxy butyrate may promote longevity by suppressing the expression of p70 S6 kInase
Figure 2. Beta-hydroxy butyrate functions as a longevity-promoting agent through downregulation of p70 S6 Kinase.
Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “β-hydroxybutyrate or its analogs, either alone or in combination with any of the known longevity-promoting compound(s),” may be used to extend the lifespan of an individual (fig. 1).
