New research has revealed that a class of proteins possesses a previously unknown cell-protecting function that could be harnessed for healthier aging and as a treatment for age-related diseases.

One protein could be key.

In a groundbreaking study, scientists have mapped the most detailed genetic blueprint yet of frailty – the age-related decline in resilience that affects around 40% of people aged 65 and above, dramatically increasing the risk of hospitalization, disability…

Chunks removed from the marine creatures more than three years ago haven't degraded and show signs of biological activity, raising questions about what it means to be alive

A three-year longitudinal study of ~4,000 adults reveals there’s no ceiling for brain health improvement through proactive engagement and self-agency. Published in the Nature Portfolio, the landmark study uses a first-of-its-kind multidimensional metric…

Naturally derived bioactive compounds that modulate aging-associated mechanisms have attracted growing research interest, yet few reviews examine how such compounds might act together. This narrative review examines four mechanistically distinct compounds…
