RE: Continued 5. Parts of Autophagy vs. mTOR
great work again!
Ive heard there is even something called caloric-restriction-mimetics, they prolong the telomers by increasing telomerase. I wonder if they induce autophagy as well.
Hey lauch3d,
Thanks for your valuable reply again.
So far I haven't heared about this mechanism you describe. But to me it makes sense. Autophagy in general prevents aging by optimizing the use of nutrients and the cell cycle. Maybe this, in turn, induces the expression of the telomerase. I will keep an eye on this for you and the community.
Regards
Chapper
