Isi artikel
THE one sure way to prolong an animal’s life is, paradoxically, to starve it. “Caloric restriction”, as it is known in the trade, works for everything from threadworms to mammals (people included, as far as can be ascertained without the luxury of controlled experiments). So it is no surprise that it also works for a group of small creatures known as rotifers. If that were the only result of Shugo Watabe’s experiments on the critters, at the University of Tokyo, it would scarcely be worth reporting. What makes this news is that the offspring of the rotifers in question also lived longer than normal. And that—the inheritance of an acquired characteristic—is quite startling.
