A recent study compared premenopausal, perimenopausal, and postmenopausal women’s cardiovascular health. Perimenopausal women had about twice the odds of having a poor overall score when
Scientists have uncovered an unexpected function of the tau protein, which is mostly known for its role in Alzheimer’s and related disorders: helping encode long-term
Researchers have discovered the role of cellular senescence in the interaction between omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Previous mixed results
Scientists have found that the levels of phosphatidylcholine, the most abundant lipid in mitochondrial membranes, decline with age, driving mitochondrial aging in worms and possibly
Researchers have outlined a key receptor and protein involved in the formation of cataracts, paving the way for potential treatments targeting them. Oxidative stress and
In Aging Cell, researchers have described the differences between primary and secondary senescent cells, comparing radiation-induced senescence to senescence induced by the senescence-associated secretory phenotype
Beijing, China — In response to the growing healthcare demands of a rapidly ageing population, China has launched its first national competency-based education programme in
Scientists have devised a CRISPR-based tool that can kill cells carrying a specific strand of RNA. The tested targets include cancerous and virus-infected cells [1].
We have spoken with Reason from Repair Biotechnologies about his company’s lead candidate, REP-0004, a drug targeting the liver to reduce excess intracellular free cholesterol.
Most cardiovascular trials focus on lowering LDL cholesterol or reducing inflammation to slow disease progression. UDP-003 targets the root cause: toxic 7-ketocholesterol (7KC) inside macrophages
Cyclarity Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company engineering cyclodextrin molecules into simple, scalable, and affordable therapies that bind and remove toxic targets to address
This month, a group of researchers published an annual report on the clinical trials that are testing drugs for Alzheimer’s disease. Overall, they reported an
We are super excited to share with you that today we released AI4L – “AI for Practical Longevity”, an open-source system that enables anyone to
A new study suggests that GLP-1 receptor agonists do not affect muscle mass any more than weight loss caused by caloric restriction, and this appears
