Description: | In line with this, both WT and TgTERT miceshowed BMD loss through life, as measured by DEXA, however,bone loss was significantly higher in mice under the control diet compared to calorie restricted mice.CR mice from both genotypes performed significantly better than mice under the control diet.The rate of telomere shortening was significantly slower in CR mice of both genotypes compared to the corresponding cohorts under the control diet.Similarly, WT and TgTERT mice under CR showed a lower rate of accumulation of short telomeres compared to the corresponding cohorts under the control diet. |
