Abstract:
:The hypothesis that aging is associated with the accumulation of oxidative damage was tested in the adult male housefly by monitoring the loss of membrane protein -SH groups, and activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenase, the cytosolic enzymes that are particularly susceptible to oxidative damage. Membrane protein -SH content and activities of these enzymes decreased with age and were correlated with the life expectancy or physiological age rather than the chronological age of the flies. Because the experimentally-induced loss of membrane protein -SH groups has a demonstrable deleterious effect on a variety of cellular functions, such damage during aging can be hypothesized to contribute to the physiological attrition associated with senescence.
