Neuronal mTORC1 inhibition promotes longevity without suppressing anabolic growth and reproduction in C. elegans.

Neuronal mTORC1 inhibition promotes longevity without suppressing anabolic growth and reproduction in C. elegans.

mTORC1 (mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1) is a metabolic sensor that promotes growth when nutrients are abundant. Ubiquitous inhibition of mTORC1 extends lifespan in multiple organisms but also disrupts several anabolic processes resulting in stunted growth, slowed development, reduced fert...
