Researchers create a massive single-cell atlas of the aging mouse brain, revealing how epigenetic changes and "jumping genes" drive neurodegeneration.

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

A UCLA study in mice reveals that aging muscle stem cells accumulate a protein that slows repair but boosts survival. This protein, NDRG1, acts like a brake, preventing cells from activating quickly ...

Salk researchers create epigenetic atlas of cell type-specific changes in the aging mouse brain, representing eight different brain regions and 36 different cell types to show clear epigenetic ...

The ovaries age faster than other organs, decreasing fertility over time. This article explores drivers of ovarian aging and ...

Some people with gray hair have also spontaneously repigmented in patches after getting certain types of chemotherapy, radiation or immunotherapy. Experts suspect that, in these rare cases, the cancer ...

Emerging research in cellular reprogramming, gene editing, and regenerative medicine is driving interest in preventive longevity medicine. Some researchers argue aging may be treated as a modifiable ...

A research team has announced a breakthrough in reversing the aging process in human cells grown in a lab, potentially paving ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years.

Surviving cancer at a young age may come with an unexpected cost: faster aging at both the cellular and brain levels. Researchers found that survivors often show signs of being biologically older than ...
