Senolytic drugs act on the removal of senescent cells, harmful “elderly” cells that cause inflammation and dysfunctions typical of aging. Breast therapy is increasingly concrete.
What would a world be like if reversal of aging damage was widespread and for everyone? Let's try to visualize a scenario.
A fortuitous discovery leads to a new preventive approach against the degeneration of old age. Senolytic drugs do not cease to amaze.
Aging without old age: the path is paved. In his book, Andrew Steele predicts the start of the “Ageless” revolution within the next two years.
Research created to understand the phenomenon of gray hair has led to a new paradigm on stem cells. It could give us the cure for aging.
A research team from Columbia Engineering took inspiration from the traditional cane for the blind. The result is a “robotic stick,” an assistant equipped with a LiDAR laser that offers the ability to “touch” objects with light to help traverse a space. Canine (from “Dog”, stick) is the name of this device that redefines the concept of spatial autonomy and improves walking stability for everyone, blind and blind. According to a preliminary investigation carried out by… Read more
Day after day this ambitious goal is starting to become reality thanks to the progress of biomedical research. For several years, researchers have believed that the cells most damaged by aging, called "senescent", damage the surrounding tissue causing many of the pathologies characteristic of old age. These cells, which have stopped dividing due to the ravages of time, continue to secrete large quantities of molecules, many of which are toxic, in the surrounding environment. In a study recently published in the prestigious journal Nature, scientists from "Mayo ... Read more
A new study sheds light on the disturbing infiltration of microplastics into human tissues, including the kidneys, liver and brain.
For Andrew Scott it's time for a second longevity revolution: not just longer lives, but healthier ones. We need to rethink healthcare, work, pensions and cultural norms.
A University of Pittsburgh study identified 25 markers in blood that can reveal a person's biological age. New weapon to treat aging failures.
Cutting-edge longevity research explores the synergistic effect of four advanced anti-aging therapies, promising never-before-seen life extensions in mouse models.
Joe Betts-LaCroix and Retro Biosciences open the doors of their secret laboratory: an ambitious longevity project financed with 180 million dollars.
The cure for gray hair could be just a step away thanks to a new stem cell study
A wearable device provides the body with the physical experiences of an older life: surprising, instructive, useful.
Will aging no longer be an insurmountable challenge? The medicine of the future fights it at the cellular level, and is approaching the turning point.
The world in 2060 will be quite different from the current one: let's try to list the possible technological cornerstones that will guide it.
Scientific efforts aim to make aging a disease, and they have never been closer to an outcome. However, many would not like a world with (many) fewer deaths.
Easy to inject, minimally invasive and truly effective in human tests: the first results of a hydrogel that can cause a lot of harm... to back pain from degenerative disc disease
The Bezos startup starts making proclamations after the first “purchasing campaign” and the engagement of 4 Nobel laureates: preventing aging? It is not "if", but "when": soon.
Are proteins involved in the aging process? According to a recent discovery, the answer is absolutely yes!
If this sanolytic antibody that targets senescent cells works in humans as well as in mice, researchers will use it to treat arthritis, heart disease and even the effects of aging.
News about the world of tomorrow.
We give news about the future of technology, science and society: if there is one thing that is about to arrive, it has already arrived here.
