Calorie restriction and rapamycin distinctly mitigate aging-associated protein phosphorylation changes in mouse muscles.

ABSTRACT: Calorie restriction (CR) and treatment with rapamycin (RM), an inhibitor of the mTORC1 growth-promoting signaling pathway, are known to slow aging and promote health from worms to humans. At the transcriptome and proteome levels, long-term CR and RM treatments have partially overlapping effects, while their impact on protein phosphorylation within cellular signaling pathways have not been compared. Here we measured the phosphoproteomes of soleus, tibialis anterior, triceps brachii and gastrocnemius muscles from adult (10 months) and 30-month-old (aged) mice receiving either a control, a calorie restricted or an RM containing diet from 15 months of age. We reproducibly detected and extensively analyzed a total of 6960 phosphosites, 1415 of which are not represented in standard repositories.
