A new study, recently published in the journal Nature Communications, is leading to a new understanding of how immune cells ...

Targeting OTULIN has proven to eliminate toxic tau proteins in human neurons for the first time, opening a new avenue for treating dementia.

Aging is associated with progressive white matter degeneration, which impairs brain structure and function. Defects in myelinating glial cells, combined with chronic neuroinflammation, contribute to ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed spatial aging clocks using single-cell transcriptomics to explore cell-type-specific interactions and their impact on brain ...

As life expectancy continues to rise, aging well has become just as important as living longer. Experts agree that while no ...

Experts explain how protein supports healthy aging—and why no single nutrient works alone.

The brain plays a big part in the aging process, and scientists think they’ve pinpointed the specific cells that control it. In a study of mice, researchers at the Allen Institute identified certain ...

For decades, aging has looked like an unavoidable slide into frailty, driven in part by an immune system that slowly loses ...

Shutting down the enzyme PTP1B helps brain immune cells clear plaques again, pointing to a potential new Alzheimer’s ...

A Swiss biotech company is putting a new longevity supplement to the test, and the latest clinical results are promising. The oral antioxidant is "an attractive option to alter immune aging," ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...
