Listen now[toc position='left'] Aging refers to the collective physiological, functional, and mental changes that accrue in a biological organism over time. The hallmarks of aging are observable biological patterns of dysfunction that occur with aging. Integral to the aging process is inflammaging, the chronic, low-grade inflammation that occurs with aging.[ref doi='10.1111/j.1749-6632.2000.tb06651.x'] The mechanisms that drive inflammaging and the pathological conditions that arise because of it are bidirectional and involve multiple physiological processes and pathways, many of which directly or indir... mitochondria aging omega-3 stem cells aerobic senescence

Senescence is a vital cellular process involved in embryonic development, wound healing, and cancer immunity; [ref doi='10.1242/dev.151837'] however, the accumulation of senescent cells is associated with diseases of aging such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, sarcopenia, and glaucoma.[ref doi='10.1016/j.cell.2017.05.015'] [ref doi='10.3390/ijms19102937'] ... neurodegeneration senescence aging

Listen now[toc position='left'] Background Collagens are major structural proteins in numerous body tissues, including tendons, ligaments, cartilage, skin, blood vessels, muscles, gut tissue, and dentin.[ref doi='10.1101/cshperspect.a004978'] They are the most abundant proteins in the body, comprising 30 percent of the total protein mass. The human body continuously manufactures collagens to maintain tissue structural integrity. However, aging drives a progressive decrease in protein synthesis and reduced capacity to produce new collagen.[ref doi='10.1016/S0047-6374(01)00337-2'] Collagens are also highl... interesting nutrition aging metabolism autoimmunity menopause

Watch now[toc position='left'] Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a cofactor (a molecule that assists enzymes in chemical reactions) that plays an essential role in multiple physiological processes, such as energy metabolism, DNA repair, and immune activation. It is necessary for the activity of sirtuins, a class of enzymes involved in longevity, and poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs), a family of DNA-repair enzymes. Cellular NAD+ production declines with age, however, and its depletion likely drives the onset and progression of multiple age-related conditions such as metabolic dysregulation ... metabolism mitochondria aging dna damage circadian rhythm nad+
