The calorie restriction one says:
> increased expression of genes encoding proteins involved in mitochondrial function such as PPARGC1A, TFAM, eNOS, SIRT1, and PARL

So the claim of https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3901353/ that this is just shifting damage from one type of damage to another and can't prolong life doesn't seem to hold water.
