Anti-aging refers to the practices, treatments, and products aimed at delaying, preventing, or reversing the effects of aging. This multidisciplinary field combines insights from medicine, genetics, biology, and dermatology to understand the aging process and mitigate its signs and impacts on the body. Anti-aging approaches can include skincare routines that utilize antioxidants, retinoids, and peptides to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture, as well as lifestyle choices like a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and avoiding harmful habits such as smoking and excessive sun exposure.
‘Senescence’ encompasses a variety of processes and cells with both beneficial and detrimental functions—thus, it is not accurate to solely attribute aging to them. The…
Fatty acids and glycerol, key fat byproducts, contribute to aging and chronic diseases. Research suggests that reducing these byproducts, particularly through the enzyme ADH-1, could…
NIH study suggests a small reduction in daily calories is beneficial for wellness. Reducing overall calorie intake may rejuvenate your muscles and activate biological pathways…
Scientists have discovered that CAR T cells, traditionally used in cancer treatment, can be engineered to fight aging by eliminating senescent cells, offering a promising…
Scientists at BTI and Cornell University have uncovered acylspermidines, metabolites that could redefine our understanding of aging and disease treatment. In a significant advancement in…
Genetic switch rescues aging fish from continuous fasting trap. Fasting interventions, which involve alternating periods of fasting and refeeding, are generally thought to improve health….
A study conducted by the University of Cambridge involving nearly 1,500 adults over 60 years old demonstrates a significant correlation between decreased physical activity and…
Researchers at The University of Queensland have found an anti-aging function in a protein deep within human cells. Associate Professor Steven Zuryn and Dr. Michael…
University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered a key driver of chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. That finding could let us slow the clock to live longer,…
New platform holds the promise to drive progress in the development of senolytic anti-aging compounds and research on longevity. A recent paper published in Nature…
In a pioneering study, researchers from Harvard Medical School, University of Maine, and MIT have introduced a chemical method for reversing cellular aging. This revolutionary…
A scientific collaboration has found that the IL-17 protein plays a key role in skin aging, with its temporary inhibition resulting in delayed aging symptoms….
Research indicates taurine deficiency may contribute to aging, and supplementation could improve longevity and health. In animal models, including mice and monkeys, restoration of taurine…
Research from Columbia University suggests that a deficiency in the nutrient taurine may drive aging in animals, with supplementation showing the potential to slow aging…
Lab analysis suggests for the first time that reduced oxygen intake might extend mammalian lifespan. Researchers have found that reduced oxygen intake, or “oxygen restriction,”…
Researchers have demonstrated that biological aging can accelerate under stress but also decelerate when stressors are removed, using a mouse model and human stress cohorts….
Studying yeast cells, researchers build a biosynthetic genetic ‘clock’ to extend lifespan. Researchers have created a synthetic genetic ‘clock’ that significantly extends cellular lifespan. By…
Calorie restriction, a proven intervention to slow aging in animals, showed evidence of slowing the pace of biological aging in a human randomized trial. In…
