HIV-infected people showed significant age acceleration in four epigenetic “clock” measurements, ranging from 1.9 to 4.8 years, an acceleration that was not seen in non-infected…
Researchers discovered that long-lived organisms often exhibit high expression of genes involved in DNA repair, RNA transport, and cellular skeleton organization and low expression of…
The research team also discovered that protective phenotypes, like the hard shells of most turtle species, might delay the aging process and, in some circumstances,…
