Suppression of the mRNA translation factor of the IFG-1 gene causes the redistribution of the resources of the adult worms from the growth and reproduction regime to the preferential preservation of somatic cells, which prolongs their life by 40%.
07.07.2011A gene has been identified that provides the rejuvenation of cells necessary for their reproduction. There is nothing left – to find the same mechanism in human cells, not yeast.
27.06.2011Testosterone replacement therapy not only restores muscle mass in older men, but also returns the levels of some biomarkers of aging to normal. But, unfortunately, this does not happen in all patients.
22.06.2011Wise men from the Sinai Cedars organization have unveiled ancient ways to maintain mental acuity until old age. For you, these tips will surely be a revelation!
02.06.2011The area of scientific interests of Vladimir Nikolaevich is the physiological and biochemical processes of the body's involution and the development of measures for their stabilization and prevention, immunological and immunogenetic problems of human aging.
19.05.2011In a rapidly aging world, aging people are treated badly, sometimes even extremely badly. And here is one of the reasons that people try not to get old. Or at least not look aging (not to mention "old").
18.05.2011The film "Pirates of the Caribbean: on Strange Shores" is packed with legends: Jack Sparrow and the mysterious Angelica embark on a search for the Source of eternal youth...
16.05.2011DNA studies conducted by British scientists have demonstrated that in poorly educated people, cell aging occurs faster than in those who have received higher education.
12.05.2011Laboratory dye thioflavin T (basic yellow) prolongs the life of C.elegans worms almost twice.
01.04.2011Dwarfism in Laron syndrome is caused by a violation of the synthesis of insulin–like growth factor, an increased concentration of which leads to "diseases of aging" - cancer, diabetes, circulatory disorders. Drugs that suppress the synthesis of IGF exist. Do you want to try it?
18.02.2011Some experts believe that interventions aimed at improving the functioning of the vascular endothelium (such as the use of red wine or other sources of polyphenols) should be started at an early age.
04.02.2011Removal of old B lymphocytes from the bloodstream of elderly mice stimulated the formation of new B cells in the same volume as in young animals. As a result, the immune response to vaccination in old mice improved by 5 times.
28.01.2011If we transfer the data obtained from worms to humans, then slowing down the mitochondria in a 30-year-old would add 15 years to his life.
13.01.2011Mice in whose bodies (at an average age for this line) scientists disrupted the work of the hormone stimulating the synthesis of growth hormone, lived almost a quarter longer than the animals of the control group, and were more than 5 times less likely to get cancer.
10.12.2010The authors of the article on the method of rejuvenation of mice believe that telomerase activation can be used to treat rare diseases associated with premature aging, and maybe also to develop methods of rejuvenation of healthy people.
29.11.2010The drug, selectively suppressing the synthesis of one of the glucocorticoids only in brain cells, rejuvenated the brains of decrepit (two-year-old) mice so that in the spatial memory test they were not inferior to young healthy animals.
20.10.2010The most promising of the geroprotectors – "pills for old age" – are already beginning to be tested on volunteers. Maybe in five years they will appear in pharmacies?
20.10.2010The life expectancy of mice taking the essential amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine was 12% longer than the average. Such an addition to the diet can have a positive effect on people's life expectancy.
06.10.2010A group of independent scientists summed up the results of the study of the effect of telomerase activator TA-65 on the health of elderly people. The drug had the greatest rejuvenating effect on the immune system of the subjects.
17.09.2010His son, Maxim Skulachev, one of the leaders of the largest biological project in Russia, told about whether Russian scientist Vladimir Skulachev really developed the "elixir of youth".
