title = "Extended longevity mechanisms in short-lived progeroid mice: Identification of a preservative stress response associated with successful aging",
abstract = "Semantic distinctions between {"}normal{"} aging, {"}pathological{"} aging (or age-related disease) and {"}premature{"} aging (otherwise known as segmental progeria) potentially confound important insights into the nature of each of the complex processes. Here we review a recent, unexpected discovery: the presence of longevity-associated characteristics typical of long-lived endocrine-mutant and dietary-restricted animals in short-lived progeroid mice. These data suggest that a subset of symptoms observed in premature aging, and possibly normal aging as well, may be indirect manifestations of a beneficial adaptive stress response to endogenous oxidative damage, rather than a detrimental result of the damage itself.",
