Calorie restriction (CR) is the most frequently studied mechanism for increasing longevity, protecting against stress, and delaying age-associated diseases. Most studies have initiated CR in young animals to determine the protective effects against aging. Although aging phenomena are well-documented, the molecular mechanisms of aging and CR remain unclear. In this study, we observe changes in hepatic proteins upon age-related and diet-restricted changes in the rat liver using quantitative proteomics. Quantitative proteomes are measured using tandem mass tag labeling followed by LC-MS/MS. We compare protein levels in livers from young (6 months old) and old (25 months old) rats with 40% calorie-restricted (YCR and OCR, respectively) or ad libitum diets. In total, 44 279 peptides and 3134 proteins are identified and 260 differentially expressed proteins are found. Functional enrichment analysis show that these proteins are mainly involved in glucose and fatty acid metabolism-related processes, consistent with the theory that energy metabolism regulation is dependent on age-related and calorie-restricted changes in liver tissue. In addition, proteins mediating inflammation and gluconeogenesis are increased in OCR livers, but not YCR livers. These results show that CR in old rats might not have antiaging benefits because liver inflammation is increased.

Effect of long-term negative energy on appetite hormone levels in individuals with prediabetes and diabetes.

Objective: Calorie restriction and exercise are commonly used first interventions to prevent the progression of prediabetes and alleviate the symptoms of type 2 diabetes. Our study was designed to determine the effect of the energy deficit caused by long-term (12-week) calorie restriction and exercise programs on appetite responses in obese individuals with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Calorie restriction and exercise programs appropriate for age, gender, and work environment were applied to 22 individuals with prediabetes and 22 with type 2 diabetes participating in the study for a period of 12 weeks.
Time-restricted eating (TRE) is a promising and cost-effective dietary approach for weight management. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of TRE on weight loss in three adult populations using pre- and post-intervention analyses while also investigating its underlying mechanism. A systematic search was conducted across four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and the CENTRAL) up until January 28, 2024, specifically focusing on prospective studies that examined the efficacy of TRE in achieving weight loss.

Purpose: Obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are major risk factors for hepatic steatosis. Diet or bariatric surgery can reduce liver volume, fat content, and inflammation. However, little is known about their effects on liver function, as evaluated here using the LiMAx test.

Cytochrome b reductase 3 (CYB5R3) overexpression upregulates mitochondrial biogenesis, function, and abundance in skeletal muscle and kidneys, and mimics some of the salutary effects of calorie restriction, with the most striking effects being observed in females. We aimed to investigate the mitochondrial adaptations prompted by CYB5R3 overexpression in the heart, an organ surprisingly overlooked in studies focused on this long-lived transgenic model despite the critical role played by CYB5R3 in supporting cardiomyocytes mitochondrial respiration. Given that CYB5R3 effects have been found to be sex-dependent, we focused our research on both males and females.

Background: Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) may result in significant medical sequelae. Compared to youth with eating disorders like anorexia nervosa (AN), youth with ARFID tend to be younger and are more likely to be male. We aim to describe sex differences in clinical characteristics of youth hospitalized for medical complications of ARFID and compare their characteristics with youth hospitalized for anorexia nervosa.
