Dietary restriction retards age-related loss of gamma crystallins in the mouse lens

PJ Leveille, R Weindruch, RL Walford, D Bok, and J Horwitz

The soluble crystallins in lenses from diet-restricted and control mice of diverse ages (2, 11, or 30 months) were studied by high-performance liquid chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Results obtained with both methods suggest that dietary restriction decelerates age-related loss of soluble gamma crystallins.
