By examining chemical tags on DNA that modulate our genes, scientists have discovered which genes are most affected by aging across more than a dozen human tissues.

The study was led by Dr. Nir Eynon from the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (image: vu.edu.au). 

Epigenetics

Model: Male Wistar rats 
Dosage: 1.5 g/kg/day of orally administered glycine for 5 months

Glycine, an amino acid shown to extend the lifespan of mice, moderately extends the lifespan of flies and counters brain and muscle degeneration in aged rats.

What Is Mosaic Aging? How Organs Age at Different Rates

A new framework proposes that the patchwork nature of aging, where different organs deteriorate at different speeds, may hold the key to understanding the ultimate cause of death.

A new framework proposes that aging occurs unevenly in cells, tissues, and organs, and that targeting the fastest-aging tissues may extend lifespan.

Mitochondria-Made Molecule Reverses Memory Loss with Advanced Age

A naturally occurring compound, α-lipoic acid, helped elderly mice think like younger mice by restoring energy balance and calming brain inflammation, according to Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University researchers.
