New study by Chinese scientists has shed more light on how humans age, particularly the immune system. More interestingly, ...

A recent study has revealed surprising new details about the human aging process, showing that the breakdown of our bodies happens not gradually, but at two very specific points: ages 44 and 60. This ...

Geroscience shifts the medical focus from treating individual diseases to targeting the fundamental biological drivers of aging. Cellular senescence involves aging cells that cease division but ...

Aging doesn’t occur uniformly throughout our lives, but accelerates during certain periods. A new study from scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences found 48 disease-related proteins increase ...

Restricting calorie intake in species such as mice, rhesus monkeys, and fruit flies has been shown to extend their lifespans.

A new Yale study of roundworms, a species with the unique ability to regenerate, reveals that disruptions in the body's ...

People could soon live to 150 years as breakthroughs in biological clocks and rejuvenation research stretch human lifespans to new highs, one expert predicted. Geneticist Steve Horvath told Time that ...

Multidimensional nature of aging: phenotypic changes across levels of biological complexity. The figure illustrates time-dependent phenotypic change across molecular, cellular, tissue, and organismal ...

Psilocybin, the hallucinogen in some mushroom species, has now been shown to increase the lifespan of both cells and mice. The magic happens because psilocybin slows down the senescence, or ...
