Over time, these hidden changes can lead to outward signs of aging, such as weaker bones or slower healing. Epigenetic age ...

Aging is the primary risk factor for numerous life-threatening diseases and has long been a central focus of biological research. Epigenetic reprogramming, a process that can modulate cell fate ...

New science shows age reversal may be within reach by targeting cellular aging mechanisms and restoring youthful biological ...

Neal from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, researchers examined how the epigenetic age of baboons—a measure of biological aging based on DNA methylation—compared to their ...

Epigenetic aging refers to changes in DNA methylation that occur over time, altering gene expression. Epigenetic clocks can measure these changes and estimate a person's biological age ...

Discover how nighttime wakefulness triggers DNA damage, metabolic chaos, and brain deterioration that accelerates aging and ...

One gram of omega-3 per day slowed aging in older adults, and the effect was stronger when combined with vitamin D and ...

Since telomere length is not strongly associated with methylation-based epigenetic markers of aging, oxidative stress induced by excess iron may reflect reduced telomere length, rather than the ...

New research from UTHealth Houston reveals that substance use disorders accelerate biological aging in the brain through substance-specific molecular mechanisms. The study, published in Genomic ...

After more than a century of steady, upward climb, US life expectancy hit 78.9 years in 2015. Since then, it’s been mostly ...
