Reducing mitochondrial ribosomal gene expression does not alter metabolic health or lifespan in mice

Abstract Maintaining mitochondrial function is critical to an improved healthspan and lifespan. Introducing mild stress by inhibiting mitochondrial translation invokes the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) and increases lifespan in several animal models. Notably, lower mitochondrial ri...
