AzureCeruleanScienceAlert: Cutting Back on Isoleucine an Amino Acid Increased Lifespan in Middle-Aged Mice Up to 33%
neat_newsIn experiments with mice, researchers found that restricting the intake of a particular amino acid, called isoleucine, can increase the lifespan of middle-aged mice by up to a third. Isoleucine is found in eggs, soy, and meat. See http://www.neat-news.com/2024/12/302.php. #diet #lifespan #isoleucine

The Isoleucine Paradox: Eat More, Weigh Less, Live Longer
New research from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health suggests that a calorie may not be just a calorie. There’s a popular saying in some circles that “a calorie is a calorie,” but science shows that it may not be true. In fact, it may be possible to eat more of some ki
Eagle Globe & FlankerAmino Acid....too much or too little?
Your Autistic Life FR/EN/ES"Mice eating less of specific amino acid — overrepresented in diet of obese people — live longer, healthier"
From the article:
"Isoleucine is plentiful in foods including eggs, dairy, soy protein and many kinds of meat."
😱 OMG! We have to stop eating eggs, dairy, soy protein, and many kinds of meat.
We have a special diet just for this!
Also, from the article:
"'We can’t just switch everyone to a low-isoleucine diet,' Lamming says."
🤔 Watch us confuse correlation and causation, put our fingers in our ears, and ignore this inconvenient comment.

Joanna MaselOur preprint describes how #EffectivePopulationSize affects #AminoAcid usage. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.02.01.526552v2. Within highly exchangeable pairs of amino acids, high Ne species are able to prefer #arginine over #lysine, and #valine over #isoleucine. This matches #thermophile preferences, as expected from theories of marginal protein stability at mutation-selection-drift balance. 1/6
