D-beta-hydroxybutyrate extends lifespan in C. elegans
Figure 7. A decreased rate of protein synthesis contributes to βHB-mediated longevity. (A) βHB-mediated lifespan extension was blunted in rsks-1(ok1255) mutant worms. (B) βHB-mediated lifespan extension was also blunted in gcn-2(ok871) mutant worms.
