Treating Age-Related Diseases and Increasing Lifespan Through Hypothalamus
Research carried out on mice by scientists at New York’s Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University found that the hypothalamus controls many aspects of aging, opening up the potential to slow down the aging process by altering signal pathways within that part of the brain.
Telomerase enzyme mapping may help fight cancer
Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have for the first time mapped out the enzyme Telomerase and say the mapping of telomerase may help in the fight against cancer.
Shorter telomere length linked to catching a cold
Test subjects with shorter immune cell telomeres faced an increased risk of catching a cold. It is the first time the DNA structures had been implicated in acute illnesses in healthy, relatively young people
Telome Health to launch saliva-based TeloTest
Telome Health, Inc., developer of the TeloTest diagnostic test that measures average telomere length, has planned to launch saliva-based TeloTest in the first quarter of 2013.
Telomere Length Can Predict Longevity In The Wild
New research from the University of East Anglia in the UK has found a correlation among biological age, longevity and an individual’s DNA by studying a wild population of Seychelles Warblers on a small island.
