Yellow arrows illustrate mechanistic targets that propel the vicious cycle triggered by age-related oxidative shifts (NAD+/NADH) and age-related sedentary behavior, which elicit ROS, inflammatory stress and possibly Aβ.

In a trending Aging editorial paper, researchers explain that switches in the aging process may be a window of opportunity for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and potential epigenetic treatments.
Aging (Aging-US) Research
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) provides significant benefits for patients who have suffered brain damage. In this 2020 study, researchers assessed the effects of HBOT among healthy aging participants.
Is there an association between biomarkers of aging and lung function? Researchers conducted a study which aimed to find out.
Researchers from the University of Leeds and the University of Glasgow conducted a 2019 study on the effects of transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) among participants 55 years of age and older.
Researchers surveyed available literature related to exercise and its association with longevity and aging. This extensive review expands on exercise as a lifestyle intervention and its ability to counteract cellular and tissue aging.
Researchers discuss the role that the epigenetic clock may play in the aging process and in rejuvenation as an approach to set back epigenetic age.
Researchers used a bioinformatics approach (ESHRD) that leverages gene expression data from brain tissue to derive cell-type specific alterations in Alzheimer’s disease.
The second week of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting will continue to be a virtual event. Aging, by Impact Journals, is proud to be a participant in week two of the conference, from May 17-21, 2021.
In an effort to mimic metformin and rapamycin, researchers used powerful screening methods to analyze over 800 natural compounds to assess their anti-aging potential and safety profile.
Dr. Mikhail Blagosklonny gleans an important new discovery in aging research—deduced from recent studies on short-lived mice and rapamycin.
