Japanese Scientists Develop Vaccine to Eliminate Cells Connected to Aging
“We can expect that (the vaccine) will be applied to the treatment of arterial stiffening, diabetes and other aging-related diseases…” via The Japan Times Headline Image: IStock/Getty Images A Japanese research team said it developed a vaccine to remove so-called zombie cells that accumulate with age and damage nearby cells, causing aging-related diseases including arterial stiffening. The team, including Juntendo … Continue reading
Anti-aging Breakthrough: Scientists Successfully ‘Reset’ Cells from ‘Supercentenarian’
Humans have long sought the gift of immortality, and while this may not be exactly it, it is a huge step! via RT: For years, scientists have sought to understand the mystery behind supercentenarians, or people who live more than 110 years. Now, researchers have overcome the first obstacle in cracking the secret code of long, healthy life. For some … Continue reading
Perception of Time May Affect Ageing
Time perception is a construction of the brain. How fast we perceive time to be passing — or “mind time” — can be manipulated or distorted. Evaluations of time differ based on our state of being at the time of judgment. How you age and how long you live may depend on that perception. People tend to see their will … Continue reading
Researchers Develop Technology To Extend Cell’s Lifespan (Slow the Aging Process)
Aging. We all face it. Nobody’s immune and we’ve long tried to reverse it, stop it or just even slow it down. While advances have been made, true age-reversal at a cellular level remains difficult to achieve. By taking a different approach, however, researchers at Houston Methodist made a surprising discovery leading to the development of technology with the ability … Continue reading
Lack of Sleep Linked to Aging, ‘Every One of the Major Diseases’
Geezers sleep less than whippersnappers. Everybody knows that, but scientists aren’t sure why. A new study from University of California, Berkeley, argues that older people need just as much sleep as younger people, but the degeneration of certain brain signals prevents older people from getting the rest they need. The team was led by Matthew Walker, professor of neuroscience and … Continue reading
Here’s How Eating Less Slows the Aging Process
There’s a multi-billion-dollar industry devoted to products that fight signs of aging, but moisturizers only go skin deep. Aging occurs deeper — at a cellular level — and scientists have found that eating less can slow this cellular process. Recent research published in Molecular & Cellular Proteomics offers one glimpse into how cutting calories impacts aging inside a cell. The … Continue reading
