The causality and mechanism of dietary effects on brain aging are still unclear due to the long time scales of aging. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has contributed to aging research because of its short lifespan and easy genetic manipulation. When fed the standard laboratory diet, Escherichia coli, C. elegans experiences an age-dependent decline in temperature-food associative learning, called thermotaxis. To address if diet affects this decline, we screened 35 lactic acid bacteria as alternative diet and found that animals maintained high thermotaxis ability when fed a clade of Lactobacilli enriched with heterofermentative bacteria. Among them, Lactobacillus reuteri maintained the thermotaxis of aged animals without affecting their lifespan and motility. The effect of Lb. reuteri depends on the DAF-16 transcription factor functioning in neurons. Furthermore, RNA sequencing analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes between aged animals fed different bacteria were enriched with DAF-16 targets. Our results demonstrate that diet can impact brain aging in a daf-16-dependent manner without changing the lifespan.

View all literature mentionsDatabase that organizes information on genomes including sequences, maps, chromosomes, assemblies, and annotations in six major organism groups: Archaea, Bacteria, Eukaryotes, Viruses, Viroids, and Plasmids. Genomes of over 1,200 organisms can be found in this database, representing both completely sequenced organisms and those for which sequencing is in progress. Users can browse by organism, and view genome maps and protein clusters. Links to other prokaryotic and archaeal genome projects, as well as BLAST tools and access to the rest of the NCBI online resources are available.
View all literature mentionsDatabase dedicated to the analysis of the genome of Escherichia coli. Its purpose is to collate and integrate various aspects of the genomic information from E. coli, the paradigm of Gram-negative bacteria. Colibri provides a complete dataset of DNA and protein sequences derived from the paradigm strain E. coli K-12, linked to the relevant annotations and functional assignments. It allows one to easily browse through these data and retrieve information, using various criteria (gene names, location, keywords, etc.). The data contained in Colibri originates from two major sources of information, the reference genomic DNA sequence from the E. coli Genome Project and the feature annotations from the EcoGene data collection.
