Methionine Restriction Reverses Old-age Obesity in Mice
A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 15, Issue 11, entitled, “Old-age-induced obesity reversed by a methionine-deficient diet or oral administration of recombinant methioninase-producing Escherichia coli in C57BL/6 mice.” Obesity increases with aging. Methionine restriction affects lipid metabolism and can prevent obesity in mice. In this new study, researchers Yutaro Kubota, Qinghong Han, Jose Reynoso, Yusuke Aoki, Noriyuki Masaki, Koya Obara, Kazuyuki Hamada, Michael Bouvet, Takuya Tsunoda, and Robert M.
