The Latest Longevity News Stories
Mice With Reduced Astrocytic Oxidative Stress Live Longer
Scientists have discovered that directly reducing the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at their source in astrocytes, mitochondrial complex III, improves neuronal health and significantly increases lifespan in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s [1]. […]
EDA2R May Be an Aging Biomarker and Inflammaging Target
A review in Aging Cell has cataloged the harmful effects of EDA2R, a protein that affects three distinct inflammation-related pathways. A necessary protein gone bad Like nearly every other […]
Rapamycin May Delay Age-Related Fertility Decline
In a recent study, researchers identified that an increase in the expression of ribosome-related genes and a loss of protein homeostasis contribute to the age-related decline in female fertility. Rapamycin […]
Skin Aging Underlined by Loss of Capillary Macrophages
A new study ties the disappearance of capillary-associated macrophages to age-related vascular degeneration in the skin. Boosting their function with […]
Rejuvenation Roundup October 2025
The trick-or-treaters have all gone home as the leaves have fallen to the ground, but rejuvenation biotech attempts to prevent human beings from fading away. Here’s what’s been done […]
Men Might Need More Exercise to Lower Cardiovascular Risks
A new observational study suggests that men need more than twice as much exercise as women do to achieve the same level of reduction in the risk of cardiovascular heart disease [1]. Understanding sex differences In […]
Maintenance Stays Efficient in Healthy Older People’s Cells
Researchers publishing in Aging Cell have found that the efficiency of autophagy, a cellular maintenance process, increases rather than decreases in […]
Organ Fat Is Associated With Carotid Atherosclerosis
A recent study discovered an association between visceral and, to a lesser extent, hepatic fat with cardiovascular risk factors and carotid atherosclerosis. This association persists even after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors [1]. Beyond […]
Review Links Lingering Infections to Senescence
In a comprehensive review, scientists discuss the various mechanisms by which chronic infections drive cellular senescence and aging [1]. Lurking in the body People are mostly aware of acute infections, […]
Stiff Collagen May Lead to Senescent Cells
A preprint study has found that the stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM) itself encourages cells to undergo senescence. An unexplored relationship ECM stiffness and cellular senescence are both well-known aspects of aging. The cross-linked collagens, such as glucosepane, […]
Amyloid-Fibrinogen Complexes Exacerbate Alzheimer’s in Mice
A study from Rockefeller University suggests that an unholy duo of two proteins causes harm in much lower concentrations than either of them alone. This points to a possible route for intervention [1]. When amyloid met fibrinogen Amyloid beta […]
Measuring Dog Aging With Protein Metabolism
Researchers working with data from the Dog Aging Project have found that post-translationally modified amino acids (ptmAAs), which are generated from protein metabolism, are useful in determining the biological ages of dogs. The […]
