The latter, also known as the epigenetic clock theory, has been widely used by scientists as a consistent, quantitative measure of biological aging. However, the new research suggests that the ...

“It's no longer science fiction but an attainable goal to develop anti-aging methods and extend healthy ... mononucleotide (NMN), exists in the human body, but decreases in number with age.

However, when both the muscle and brain clock genes were turned back on, the mice showed fewer signs of aging and better ...

This research comes at an opportune time—some experts have come to believe that research tackling aging will likely have a larger impact on extending human lifespans and healthspans than on ...

A few years later, Horvath and colleagues discovered a link been mortality and methylation patterns in the human genome. Now, researchers at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s European ...

The androgen clock is rewriting the science of aging, offering a precise way to measure hormone exposure and its profound effects on health, longevity, and biology.

“Across the board—for cytokines, for metabolites, for genes, for cells—they change so dramatically with age, to the extent that you can actually build a very accurate clock predicting chronological ...
