The Endocrine Regulation of Aging by Insulin-like Signals
Despite the similarities among mammals and invertebrates in insulin-like peptides and their signal cascade, more research is needed to determine whether these signals control aging in the same way in all the species by the same mechanism.

There was consensus that there is sufficient evidence that aging interventions will delay and prevent disease onset for many chronic conditions of adult and old age and their potential to be safe and effective in extending human healthspan.

Data indicate that there is a temporal relationship between the development of the actin cytoskeleton within the Sertoli cell and initial formation of the SERToli cell barrier and there is also a temporal relationships between theDevelopment of theActin cytOSkeleton of myoid cells and tubular fluid flow.

Results obtained in GH-related mutant mice provide striking examples of mutations of a single gene delaying aging, reducing age-related disease, and extending lifespan in a mammal and providing novel experimental systems for the study of mechanisms of aging.

It is suggested that IGF in the regulation of growth and adult body size is important in mediating the effect of longevity genes on aging and life span, and suspected mechanisms of IGF-I action in aging include reduced insulin signaling, enhanced sensitivity to insulin, and reducedthermogenesis with diminished oxidative damage of macromolecules being the likely final common pathway of these effects.
