Lack of a carefully designed, well-characterized, precise, translational experimental model is a major limitation to understanding the cellular perturbations […]


Beta-guanidinopropionic acid does not extend Drosophila lifespan

June 3, 2021

Jonathan D Dorigatti, Kevin M Thyne, Brett C Ginsburg, Adam B Salmon Biochem Biophys Rep. 2021 Jun 3:27:101040. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2021.101040. eCollection 2021 Sep. Abstract: Activation of AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling has been demonstrated to extend lifespan and improve healthspan across multiple species. This suggests pharmaceutical approaches to increase AMPK hold the potential to […]
