In Aging, researchers have reported that deriving extracellular vesicles from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in fat tissue has beneficial effects in models of osteoarthritis. Which source to use? Why We Age: Cellular SenescenceAs your body ages, more of your cells become senescent. Senescent cells do not divide or support the tissues of which they are...

Scientists publishing in Nature have explained a key pathway that leads to immune dysfunction and neurodegeneration in aging. Feeling the STING Throughout this paper, the researchers cite other papers demonstrating a cause-and-effect relationship between initial damage and long-term effects. Perturbed mitochondria release their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) into the internal liquid (cytosol) of microglia, the helper...

Researchers publishing in Aging Cell have documented some potential effects of rutin against senescence and cancer. Rutin is a natural compound found in several plants. Another compound to fight senescence In this study, the researchers place rutin among the many other natural compounds that have demonstrated effectiveness in the lab against cellular senescence, including fisetin...

A team of researchers has recently published a study on the effects of senescence on periodontal tissues in Aging. Connecting bones and teeth We have previously outlined a study showing a relationship between gum disease and biomarkers of inflammation. Noting that aging itself is a risk factor for periodontitis [1], this study approaches this topic...

A cellular study published in the Journal of Dental Sciences has shown that Vitamin D alleviates inflammaging related to the oxidative stress brought on by advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Diabetes and AGEs Previous research has shown that the uncontrolled blood sugars associated with Type 2 diabetes attach themselves to other proteins and fats. This process,...

Researchers publishing in Experimental Eye Research have discovered that the peptide aB-crystallin can reduce the cellular senescence that affects the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). What is αB-crystallin? αB-crystallin is a well-known heat shock protein, a family of proteins that is used in temperature regulation. This protein has been previously demonstrated by this research...
