Researchers from Brown University and the University of Rochester will lead a multi-institution project to test whether ...

Macquarie University researchers have discovered a naturally occurring protein found in human cells plays a powerful role in repairing damaged DNA—the molecule that carries the genetic instructions ...

A protein found in our cells has emerged as a secret weapon against biological aging, acting like a glue to repair damaged DNA and ward off neurological degeneration including that seen in motor ...

As we age with each passing year, we become more susceptible to chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and dementia.

“Our results suggest that rDNA promoter methylation and the age-related loss of active rDNA TU, which are a hallmark of the aging process, start only after reaching sexual maturity.” “Our results ...

A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 3, on March 12, 2025, titled "DNA methylation entropy is a biomarker for aging." Researchers Jonathan Chan, Liudmilla Rubbi, and ...

Lead authors Marlon Goering, Ph.D., and Sylvie Mrug, Ph.D., from the Department of Psychology in the UAB College of Arts and Sciences, say two risk factors for early puberty parents can monitor are a ...

Unrepaired DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) – highly toxic tangles of protein and DNA – cause a process that leads to premature aging and embryonic lethality in mice. The findings reveal a previously ...

The muscles powering a sprinter’s explosive start work very differently from those enabling marathon runners to go the distance. Korean scientists have discovered distinct DNA aging patterns in chest ...
