Hormonal Signaling, Dietary Factors and Biology of Aging

Our laboratory is exploring the genetic control of aging in mammals and vertebrates.

We are studying the endocrine mechanisms and nutritional factors for their effects on longevity and aging.

1. The physiological role of the somatotropic axis in the control of aging in mammals and vertebrates.

2. The dietary factors on aging: calorie restriction vs. methionine restriction.

3. Interventions of age-related diseases.
