Mild activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response increases lifespan without increasing resistance to stress

Alexa Di Pede, Bokang Ko, Abdelrahman AlOkda, Aura A Tamez González, Shusen Zhu, Jeremy M. Van Raamsdonk

This study shows that mild activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mitoUPR) through ATFS-1 can increase lifespan without enhancing stress resistance in worms.

Endosomal trafficking protein TBC-2 isrequired for the longevity of long-livedmitochondrial mutants

Annika Traa, Hazel J. Shields, Abdelrahman AlOkda, Zenith D. Rudich, Bokang Ko, Jeremy M. Van Raamsdonk

This study shows that disrupting TBC-2 reduces lifespan and stress resistance in long-lived mitochondrial mutants in C. elegans, suggesting a role for endosomal trafficking in mitochondrial dysfunction-related longevity.
