Senescence, a phenomenon in which cells cease to divide and grow, can be caused by everything from natural DNA damage to treatment with chemotherapy. However, several mechanisms allow for cells to ...

Postpartum breast cancer is diagnosed five to ten years after giving birth. It is associated with a higher risk of metastasis and a lower survival rate compared with women who have not been pregnant ...

Cellular senescence is marked by irreversible cell cycle arrest, lysosomal changes, regulatory protein expression, and SASP activation, impacting tissue health and repair. Cellular senescence is a ...

Cellular senescence is a process in which the cell cycle becomes permanently arrested, thereby inhibiting cell division, proliferation and growth. Various cellular stresses, such as DNA damage, ...

A wearable light therapy device tuned to near-infrared wavelengths has reduced a key cellular aging marker by 92% in laboratory tests on human hair follicle cells, according to new research. The ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3. This is a joint Collection across npj Aging, Nature Aging, Nature Metabolism, Nature Cell Biology and Scientific Reports. Please see ...

EPFL scientists have now discovered that a DNA-sensing mechanism of the innate immune system - which is pivotal for the immediate defense against pathogens -- controls cellular senescence. The work is ...

Our work highlights the need to study polyploidy and senescence in concert to understand their roles in aging, cancer, and ...

Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases, but the molecular mechanisms behind this relationship are not clear. In a recent study, researchers explored the role of PQBP3, a protein ...

BURNABY, British Columbia, Feb. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Qu Biologics Inc., a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing Site Specific Immunomodulators (SSIs), a novel immunomodulation ...

A research team discovered that the rapid senescence of harvested strawberry 'Benihoppe' results from increased perishability, softening, water loss, increased soluble sugars within 2 d, and changes ...
