AI Article Synopsis
- * The review discusses MR's physiological responses, detailing its impact on chronic diseases and aging, as well as potential mechanisms involving substances like hydrogen sulfide and short-chain fatty acids.
- * Future research directions focus on the roles of epigenetics and gut microbiota in MR diets, providing insights into how MR may contribute to health improvements and aging prevention.
Article Abstract
Dietary methionine restriction (MR) has been associated with multifaceted health-promoting effects. MR is conducive to prevention of several chronic diseases and cancer, and extension of lifespan. A growing number of studies on new phenotypes and mechanisms of MR have become available in the past five years, especially in angiogenesis, neurodegenerative diseases, intestinal microbiota, and intestinal barrier function. In this review, we summarize the characteristics and advantages of MR, and current knowledge on the physiological responses and effects of MR on chronic diseases and aging-associated pathologies. Potential mechanisms, in which hydrogen sulfide, fibroblast growth factor 21, gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids, and so on are involved, are discussed. Moreover, directions for epigenetics and gut microbiota in an MR diet are presented in future perspectives. This review comprehensively summarizes the novel roles and interpretations of the mechanisms underlying MR in the prevention of chronic diseases and aging.
