Tissue-Specific Responses of IGF-1/Insulin and mTOR Signaling in Calorie Restricted Rats

Moderate calorie restriction (CR) (∼60% of ad libitum, AL, intake) has been associated with numerous favorable physiological outcomes in many species, and the insulin/IGF-1 and mTOR signaling pathways have each been proposed as potential mediators for many of CR's bioeffects. However, few studi...
