A Knowledge Hub for Aging and Longevity
As part of our commitment to education our goal is to share evidence-based knowledge about aging and rejuvenation among the general public, the business sector, policymakers, and philanthropists. To achieve this goal we have created an educational hub to help our readers learn more about the biology of aging. Here you can find a range of topics covering the biology of aging and other related subjects.
If you are new to the topic, we recommend starting with the basics and reading our pages about why we age and what is life extension.
Yamanaka Factors – Opportunities for Rejuvenation
Partial cellular reprogramming is a powerful technique that may be able to reprogram cells back into a youthful state, at least partially reversing epigenetic alterations, one of the proposed reasons we age. Yamanaka factors and the birth of […]
What Are Clinical Trials? The Stages Of Clinical Trials
In order to bring therapies to people that address the aging processes, a therapy must successfully demonstrate safety and efficacy in clinical trials. What are clinical trials? The definition of a clinical trial is a research study involving […]
How Metabolic Syndrome Makes Aging Worse
Metabolic syndrome drives many of the hallmarks of aging, and multiple hallmarks of aging drive metabolic syndrome in a vicious, accelerating cycle. Central obesity, high triglycerides, […]
What is the Average Life Expectancy in America?
The United States has many demographic aspects that have significant regional variations, and life expectancy is one of them. Life expectancy in the United States varies by decades, and health expectancy […]
Urea Is a Blood Biomarker of Aging
In 2013, Steve Horvath developed a highly accurate artificial intelligence-driven method of determining biological age [1]. This long-awaited development ushered in a new era of aging research. For the first time, […]
Red Blood Cells as Biomarkers of Aging
The advent of artificial intelligence and its application to the study of aging and longevity took a giant leap forward in 2013 with the development of tools for measuring biological age. Public access to these tools opened […]
The Relationship Between ApoE and Alzheimer’s
Alzheimer’s disease is the most typical form of dementia. It is a progressive disease that begins with mild memory loss, leads to profound cognitive deficits, and ends with death. 10% to 14% of adults over 65 have […]
Haemopoiesis: How Blood Is Created
It may seem obvious, but blood is made from many things. Blood plasma, for instance, is mostly made of water, carrying proteins and […]
Blood Glucose Is a Biomarker of Aging
Glucose is the second most influential biomarker on the rate of aging, according to Aging.ai’s age prediction platform. Glucose control […]
What Alkaline Phosphatase Is and Does
The primary function of phosphatases is to remove phosphate groups from proteins, changing how they function and relate to other proteins and providing a crucial function in cellular signaling. Alkaline […]
