Cysteine reduction rather than methionine restriction promotes immunometabolic fitness to confer survival benefit in aging

Lucie Orliaguet, Hee‐Hoon Kim, Piyush Gupta, Aileen Lee, Yuanjiu Lei, Ruiqi Li, Carisa Zeng, Yun‐Hee Youm, Tamara Dlugos, Chenyang Guan, Andrew Wang, Maxim N. Artyomov, Yuval Kluger, Björn Schumacher, Vishwa Deep Dixit

This study shows that reducing cysteine, not methionine, improves immunometabolic fitness and extends healthy lifespan in aging organisms.

Exoproteome of calorie-restricted humans identifies complement deactivation as an immunometabolic checkpoint reducing inflammaging

Manish Mishra, Hee‐Hoon Kim, Yun‐Hee Youm, Elsie Gonzalez-Hurtado, Konstantin Zaitsev, Tamara Dlugos, Irina Shchukina, Christy M. Gliniak, Éric Ravussin, Subhasis Mohanty, Albert C. Shaw, Philipp E. Scherer, Maxim N. Artyomov, Vishwa Deep Dixit

The paper identifies complement deactivation as an immunometabolic checkpoint reduced by calorie restriction, which lowers inflammaging in humans and mice.

Cysteine depletion triggers adipose tissue thermogenesis and weight-loss.

Aileen H. Lee, Lucie Orliaguet, Yun‐Hee Youm, Rae Maeda, Tamara Dlugos, Yuanjiu Lei, Daniel Coman, Irina Shchukina, Prabhakar Sairam Andhey, Steven R. Smith, Éric Ravussin, Krisztián Stadler, Bandy Chen, Maxim N. Artyomov, Fahmeed Hyder, , Vishwa Deep Dixit

This study shows that cysteine depletion induces adipose browning and weight loss in mice, mediated by noradrenaline signaling via β3-adrenergic receptors, without requiring UCP1.

Hormetic elevation of taurine restrains inflammaging by deactivating the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Chenyang Guan, Seungjin Ryu, Mingze Dong, Yun‐Hee Youm, Subhasis Mohanty, Rae Maeda, Lucie Orliaguet, Hee‐Hoon Kim, Tamara Dlugos, Steven R. Smith, Éric Ravussin, Janset Onyuru, Andrew Wang, Albert C. Shaw, Hal M. Hoffman, , Vishwa Deep Dixit

This study shows that elevated taurine reduces age-related inflammation by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome and pyroptosis in mice.
