We are working on the genetic control of aging in mammals and on endocrine mechanisms responsible for the effects of longevity genes. We reported the first evidence that mutation of a single gene can significantly extend life span in a mammal (Brown-Borg et al. Nature 384:33, 1996).

These mechanisms include reduced plasma levels of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)
