Article Synopsis
  • Aging is a natural process marked by the decline of biological functions, influenced by genetics and the environment, and studied using model organisms like Drosophila.
  • Research on tissue-specific proteome changes during aging reveals certain common alterations across tissues, such as declines in mitochondrial, autophagic, and anti-ROS defense networks, despite variability in specific protein changes.
  • Targeting the insulin receptor (InR) in specific tissues extends lifespan and improves midgut function, highlighting the importance of gut health in aging and suggesting that different tissues may respond uniquely to aging interventions.

Trace metal elements are of vital importance for fundamental biological processes. They function in various metabolic pathways after the long evolution of living organisms. Glucose is considered to be one of the main sources of biological energy that supports biological activities, and its metabolism is tightly regulated by trace metal elements such as iron, zinc, copper, and manganese.
