Animals subjected to dietary restriction (DR) have reduced body size, low fecundity, slower development, lower fat content and longer life span. We identified lamin as a regulator of multiple dietary restriction phenotypes. Downregulation of lmn-1, the single Caenorhabditis elegans lamin gene, increased animal size and fat content, specifically in DR animals. The LMN-1 protein acts in the mTOR pathway, upstream to RAPTOR and S6K, key component and target of mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1), respectively. DR excludes the mTORC1 activator RAGC-1 from the nucleus. Downregulation of lmn-1 restores RAGC-1 to the nucleus, a necessary step for the activation of the mTOR pathway. These findings further link lamin to metabolic regulation.

Experimental obesity was produced in DBA/2JN, STR/N and C57L/HeN mice as well as in Osborne-Mendel rats by several dietary regimens. One of these, containing 60% vegetable fat, increased the amount of degenerative joint disease in the rats and in two strains of mice. No increase of osteoarthritis occurred as a result of a 37.4% fat content in the diet, or from obesity produced by Ingle's diet, which has a relatively low-fat content. The mechanism by which the high-fat diet increased the joint disease is unknown, because neither obesity nor a high-fat diet alone had a deleterious effect on the articulations of the mice. Obese hybrid mice derived from a spontaneously obese and arthritis-prone strain (STR/1N) were resistant to articular degeneration. Dietary restriction of weight gain in the STR/1N mice failed to decrease the osteoarthritis in them.

Dietary restriction (DR) increases lifespan in a broad variety of organisms and improves health in humans. However, long-term transgenerational consequences of dietary interventions are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effect of DR by temporary fasting (TF) on mortality risk, age-specific reproduction and fitness across three generations of descendants in Caenorhabditis elegans . We show that while TF robustly reduces mortality risk and improves late-life reproduction of the individuals subject to TF (P 0 ), it has a wide range of both positive and negative effects on their descendants (F 1 –F 3 ). Remarkably, great-grandparental exposure to TF in early life reduces fitness and increases mortality risk of F 3 descendants to such an extent that TF no longer promotes a lifespan extension. These findings reveal that transgenerational trade-offs accompany the instant benefits of DR, underscoring the need to consider fitness of future generations in pursuit of healthy ageing.
