Aging is a multifaceted topic, and it’s becoming more and more clear that the only way to deal with it is piece by piece. Here’s what pieces our industry has
A perspective published in Aging Cell details the replacement-based approaches being investigated by several research organizations. Repair versus replacement This perspective begins by noting the inherent difficulty of rejuvenating the
A recent study found an association between longer and more frequent daytime napping and higher mortality risk. The authors suggest using napping frequency and duration as behavioral markers of increased
A new study calls for caution in using the well-known senolytic treatment of dasatinib and quercetin (D+Q), showing that it causes damage in certain regions of the brain, similar to
A new study has suggested that T cells might retain a pro-inflammatory phenotype long after normal weight is regained following a period of obesity. In mice, the effect lasts for
A team of scientists has examined how younger and older mice heal from wounds and found that more robust senescent cell activation in younger animals helps them heal faster. A
A new study has found that partial reprogramming mitigates the damage of myocardial infarction in mice by helping heart muscle cells to complete division [1]. When heart cells get stuck
For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, spring is here. This is a time of renewal and hope for better times ahead, echoing what our field is trying to
Longevity Day at NFC Summit Lisbon has announced its confirmed speaker lineup ahead of its debut on 4 June 2026 at the Unicorn Factory in Lisbon. The event will bring
An investigation into the aging immune system identified age-related changes, including sex-dependent differences, in immune cell subpopulations and gene expression. In general, females showed greater age-related changes than males, including
According to a new study, rapamycin probably interferes with exercise, blunting its effects in older human subjects. This result, however, might be specific to the particular protocol. Can they work
BioAge Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIOA) (“BioAge” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutic product candidates for metabolic diseases by targeting the biology of human aging, today reported results
A paper in Cell Genomics has described how age-related systemic inflammation (inflammaging) is related to epigenetic aging as measured by four established clocks. Tying together two well-known aspects of aging
Researchers have genetically engineered blood stem cells to produce B cells that can churn out rare broad-action antibodies to fight HIV, malaria, and flu. This platform can also be used
In Aging Cell, researchers have described how suppressing the ghrelin receptor improves muscle function and fights sarcopenia in older mice. An appetite hormone with negative effects Ghrelin has been well-documented
