Potential relevance to dietary restriction and ageing

Observations

Males heterozygous for hypomorphic or null mutation of Rpd3 have a lifespan extension of 33% and 41 - 47%, respectively. Females heterozygous for a hypomorphic allele have a 52% increase in lifespan, but females carrying a null mutation have only modest increase in maximum lifespan (but not median lifespan). Longevity increases to the same extent in wild-type under low-calorie diet and rpd3 mutants fed normal diet. DR fails to further increase lifespan of rpd3 mutants. DR leads to a moderate but significant down-regulation of Rpd3, analogous to decrease obtained in heterozygotes carrying rpd3 mutation. rpd3 mutants fed normal food and wild-type fed low-calorie increase Sir2 expression two-fold [202].
