Protein Integrity Enhanced by Factor in Naked Mole Rat's Cells

A secret of longevity has been discovered in the tissues of the longest-lived rodent, the naked mole rat, by scientists at the Barshop Institute for Longevity and Aging Studies, part of the School of Medicine at the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio. They reported that a factor in the cells of naked mole rats protects and alters the activity of the proteasome, a garbage disposer for damaged and obsolete proteins.
