The elasticity of skin emerges from the structural properties of the extracellular matrix maintained by skin cells, the fine details of the structure of elastin and collagen that become disrupted with age. Two of the more important contributions to ... [Continue Reading]
Antioxidant Effects of Stem Cell Exosome Therapy
Oxidative stress is the excessive generation of oxidizing molecules in tissues, which can cause a range of harms, reacting with important molecular machinery to harm cells and detrimentally alter cell function. Rising oxidative stress goes hand in ... [Continue Reading]
Red Meat Increases Cardiovascular Risk via Raised TMAO Production by the Gut Microbiome
More research into aging and the gut microbiome is taking place these days. A greater investment into this line of research will, as illustrated here, likely lead to a greater knowledge of the mechanisms underlying the known correlations between diet ... [Continue Reading]
Sirtuins Remain an Active Area of Research in Aging
Sirtuins are connected to the upregulation of cellular stress response mechanisms triggered by, for example, calorie restriction. Given the failure of past attempts to intervene in aging at the point of sirtuin 1, it may be that the influence of ... [Continue Reading]
