Sulfate is an essential nutrient for life. Individuals with autism, Alzheimers, Parkinsons and motor neurone disease have low blood sulfate levels. In this project, we plan to study several genes as candidates in controlling blood sulfate levels. We also plan to determine the role blood sulfate levels play in longevity. Our findings will make an important link between dietary nutritional intake, genes, blood sulfate levels and longevity.

硫酸盐是生命所必需的营养物质。患有自闭症、阿尔茨海默症、帕金森氏症和运动神经元疾病的人血液中硫酸盐水平较低。在这个项目中，我们计划研究几个基因作为控制血液硫酸盐水平的候选基因。我们还计划确定血液硫酸盐水平在长寿中所起的作用。我们的发现将在饮食营养摄入量、基因、血液硫酸盐水平和长寿之间建立重要联系。
