    Biogerontology 10:579-92. 2009
    ..They also show for the first time that restriction of dietary amino acids different from methionine decreases mitochondrial protein oxidative modification and AIF, and increases SIRT1, in rat liver...

    Pilar Caro
    Department of Animal Physiology II, Complutense University of Madrid, Madrid, Spain
    Rejuvenation Res 12:421-34. 2009
    ..We conclude that methionine is the only dietary factor responsible for the decrease in mitochondrial ROS production and oxidative stress, and likely for part of the longevity extension effect, occurring in DR...

    J Bioenerg Biomembr 41:309-21. 2009
    ..These results show that methionine supplementation in the diet specifically increases mitochondrial ROS production and mitochondrial DNA oxidative damage in rat liver mitochondria offering a plausible mechanism for its hepatotoxicity...

    Biogerontology 9:183-96. 2008
    ..The results show that 40% isocaloric MetR is enough to decrease ROS production and oxidative stress in rat liver. This suggests that the lowered intake of methionine is responsible for the decrease in oxidative stress observed in DR...

    Department of Animal Physiology II, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Complutense University, Madrid, Spain
    Ann N Y Acad Sci 1067:200-9. 2006
    ..These results deny a role for lipids and reinforce the possible role of dietary proteins as being responsible for the decrease in mitochondrial ROS production and DNA damage in caloric restriction...
