Trehalose Boosts Lifespan in C. elegans by henrrymills1600 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The study investigates the metabolic shift from glycogen to trehalose in Caenorhabditis elegans and its implications for lifespan and healthspan. It finds that reducing glycogen storage by modulating the gsy-1 gene leads to increased trehalose levels, promoting longevity and health benefits, particularly in the context of high-sugar diets. The research highlights the role of the DAF-16 transcription factor and autophagy in mediating these effects, suggesting potential avenues for addressing high-sugar diet-
