Antiaging

Research led by Sichuan University and Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China, has revealed genetic mechanisms that could prolong healthy aging. In the paper, titled "Partial inhibition ...

In a groundbreaking study, researchers have unlocked a new frontier in the fight against aging and age-related diseases. The study, conducted by a team of scientists at Harvard Medical School, has published ...

Mice had longer lives and monkeys stayed healthier as they aged when given taurine supplements  

A study by researchers from Columbia and Brigham and Women’s Hospital/Harvard links age-related memory loss to a diet low in flavanols—nutrients found in fruits and vegetables. The study found that replenishing these nutrients in adults over 60 improved performance on memory tests, indicating the im

Lab analysis suggests for the first time that reduced oxygen intake might extend mammalian lifespan. Researchers have found that reduced oxygen intake, or "oxygen restriction," is linked to a longer lifespan in lab mice. Mice in oxygen-restricted environments lived about 50% longer than those in

Researchers at the University of Cologne have found that a protein complex impedes the repair of genomic damage in human cells, mice, and the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Furthermore, they were able to successfully obstruct this complex with a pharmaceutical agent for the first time. “When we

A study finds that fruit from the cocklebur plant, an invasive weed, may have anti-aging and anti-inflammatory capabilities and could potentially be used in skin care.

In both preclinical models and human subjects, stress caused by surgery, pregnancy, and severe COVID-19 has been shown to accelerate signs of biological aging. However, these signs were found to revert back to normal levels following recovery. We can't reverse the passage of time as indicated by

Working with tiny, nematode worms called C. elegans, a USask research team has identified a pair of genes responsible for clearing cells of the toxins which accumulate in the body and are responsible ...

Aging is classically conceptualized as an ever-increasing trajectory of damage accumulation and loss of function, leading to increases in morbidity an…

A study by Tulane University reveals that frequent illness may accelerate brain aging and increase the risk of dementia or cognitive decline. The findings highlight the importance of maintaining good health to prevent infections, especially among the elderly and dementia-prone individuals. Gettin

Cocklebur extracts could protect skin, speed wound healing, and ward off wrinkles. The fruit of the cocklebur plant, which grows worldwide and is often considered a noxious weed, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory components that could make it useful as a skin protectant, according to new rese

Aging may not be inevitable — and believe it or not, we have an underpopulation problem to solve.

Some of the lowest rates of heart and brain disease ever reported by science are found among Indigenous communities inhabiting the tropical forests of lowland Bolivia. New USC research on two of these societies, the Tsimané and Mosetén, suggests that there are optimal levels of food consumption and exercise that maximize healthy brain aging and reduce the risk of disease.

Certain bacteria have been linked with a loss of collagen, the protein that gives youthful skin a smooth appearance. Better understanding the role of these bacteria in wrinkles and skin sagging could lead to new anti-ageing treatments

A new mechanism of aging has been uncovered by researchers: the accumulation of sphingolipids. Ceramides, a widely known class of sphingolipids, build up in aging muscle and reduce its function, impacting the functional capacity of older adults. These findings inspire the development of potential dr

As they age, both mice and humans tend to become less active and lose muscle mass and strength. Scientists led by Johan Auwerx at EPFL have recently discovered that aging mice have an accumulation of ceramides in their muscles. Ceramides are commonly used in skincare products and are a type of sphin
