Calorie restriction promotes mammalian cell survival by inducing the SIRT1 deacetylase.

TL;DR: It is shown that expression of mammalian Sir2 (SIRT1) is induced in CR rats as well as in human cells that are treated with serum from these animals, suggesting that CR could extend life-span by inducing SIRT1 expression and promoting the long-term survival of irreplaceable cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Suppression of Oxidative Stress by β-Hydroxybutyrate, an Endogenous Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor

TL;DR: It is reported that the ketone body d-β-hydroxybutyrate (βOHB) is an endogenous and specific inhibitor of class I histone deacetylases (HDACs), and treatment of mice with βOHB conferred substantial protection against oxidative stress.
