Researchers at Texas A&M found that excess RNA, including ordinary messenger RNA, can damage mitochondria and cut a cell's energy production during poxvirus infection.
Stanford researchers blocked an age-linked enzyme called 15-PGDH and watched worn knee cartilage thicken in old mice, protect against post-injury arthritis, and even stir to life in human tissue from knee-replacement patients. Exciting, but still early.
A 12-week Texas A&M trial in adults aged 45 to 65 found that daily creatine added lean tissue and strength, with or without a structured exercise program.
A new WashU Medicine study links accelerated biological aging in younger generations to rising rates of early-onset cancer — with immune aging tied to lung cancer and fat-tissue aging tied to colorectal cancer.
Sleep advice tends to arrive as a single round number: eight hours. A new study out of Columbia University suggests the real target is both narrower and more consequential than that, and it applies to nearly every organ in the... Continue Reading →
Protein-fortified everything is having a moment, it's in cereal, in coffee, even in bottled water. So it might come as a surprise that a new scientific review is making the opposite case: that many of us, especially those who aren't... Continue Reading →

Four weeks on a diet of highly processed food led to a strong inflammatory response in the brains of aging rats that was accompanied by behavioral signs of memory loss, a new study has found. Researchers also found that supplementing... Continue Reading →
A new study from Tel Aviv University (TAU) and the Shamir Medical Center in Israel indicates that hyperbaric oxygen treatments (HBOT) in healthy aging adults can stop the aging of blood cells and reverse the aging process. In the biological... Continue Reading →
