Work in model organisms can expand the theoretical knowledge of aging: it yields valuable insight into the molecular and cellular processes that underlie aging process, and it can perhaps provide new therapeutic targets for the treatment of age-related disorders in humans. Drosophila models have been developed for a large variety of aging-related processes and diseases, and this book provides readers with an overview of current research on the use of the Drosophila model to understand the genetic, molecular and physiological mechanisms that underlie the aging process. Themes of healthspan, life extension and longevity-associated genes emerge in this collation of international research on Drosophila that is of relevance to geriatrics and gerontology, animal genetics and genomics, and biomedicine. This fascinating, illustrated book will be of interest to a wide audience, ranging from academic researchers to the general reader. . 000727615 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed June 16, 2015). 000727615 650_0 $$aLife expectancy. 000727615 650_0 $$aLongevity. 000727615 650_0 $$aFruit-flies. 000727615 7001_ $$aVaiserman, Alexander,$$eeditor. 000727615 7001_ $$aMoskalev, Alexey A.,$$eeditor. 000727615 7001_ $$aPasyukova, Elena G.,$$eeditor. 000727615 830_0 $$aHealthy ageing and longevity ;$$vv. 3. 000727615 852__ $$bebk 000727615 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-18326-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000727615 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:727615$$pGLOBAL_SET 000727615 980__ $$aEBOOK 000727615 980__ $$aBIB 000727615 982__ $$aEbook 000727615 983__ $$aOnline 000727615 994__ $$a92$$bISE
