Scientists have found that the ratio between poly- and monounsaturated fatty acids affects the viability of T cells as well as both humoral and anti-tumor immunity [1]. The iron death Some fats are broadly recognized as healthy while others are considered unhealthy, but the reality might be more complicated than that. Poly- and monounsaturated fats...

Scientists have discovered that ATP deficiency disrupts dopamine processing in synapses, leading to the accumulation of the harmful protein species that characterize Parkinson’s disease. ATP supplementation helps, but the road to the clinic might be long [1]. Parkinson’s and dopamine Parkinson's disease is defined by two hallmarks: the death of dopamine-producing neurons in a midbrain...

Cellular reprogramming is one of the technologies most associated with longevity. The field was created in 2006, when Shinya Yamanaka showed that a cocktail of four transcription factors, commonly known as OSKM, can cause de-differentiation and massive rejuvenation of a cell, creating an iPSC (induced pluripotent stem cell). About a decade later, partial reprogramming was...

João Pedro de Magalhães, professor at the University of Birmingham, is known as a prominent geroscientist who has been in the field forever, enriching it with top-tier research. He is also a skilled longevity advocate who has long taken interest in the ethics of longevity, first offering his perspective as far back as 2003. Prof....

Scientists have discovered that, like brown fat, white fat has a mechanism that burns fuel to produce heat. This effect could potentially be used to create weight loss drugs [1]. Central heating Cells use energy to power various cellular processes, with heat being a byproduct. However, we might need additional heat to survive. Brown adipocytes...

A new system, which consists of a large LLM and a network of agentic tools, outperformed several other models and human physicians [1]. Too rare to easily diagnose Rare diseases can be notoriously hard to diagnose. Patients average over 5 years to receive a correct diagnosis, enduring repeated referrals, misdiagnoses, and unnecessary interventions in what...
