How can evolution select for phenotypes that postpone reproduction or sexual maturity?” There is often a trade-off between reproduction and maintenance, and in many species reproduction and senescence are closely linked. Recent studies of mice, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Drosophila suggest that there is a conserved genetic pathway that regulates aging and that it can indeed be selected for. This pathway involves the response to insulin and insulin-like growth factors, Name of these transcription factors are

Many conditions including type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer  disease, Huntington disease and parkinson disease are associated with the misfolding mechanism a soluble protein that is normally secreted from the cell is secreted in the missfold state and converted into an insoluble extracellular fibre the diseases are correctly referred to as
