Longevity science has spent decades chasing single molecules that might slow aging, but most candidates have delivered modest ...

As life expectancy continues to climb globally, the focus of many people has moved from longevity alone to living in good health. This has drawn attention to the need to extend "healthspan," the ...

Your next favorite true crime podcast might have some new forensics jargon to make sense of. Researchers in Australia have developed a new way to identify humans – similar to how we do with DNA and ...

Even hardened tooth tartar can rewrite textbooks,” said evolutionary geneticist Qiaomei Fu, whose research team has just ...

A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how our bodies sense and respond to stress. The findings of the UC ...

Calcium transport into and out of mitochondria -- the powerhouses of cells -- is central to cellular energy production and cell death. To maintain the balance of calcium within these powerhouses, ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

Researchers from Cologne, Bochum, Padova and Angers have discovered a novel connection between mitochondrial function, protein quality control and cellular health, whose failure could be the leading ...

(A) MRPS29 interacts with ADAR2 and represses A-to-I RNA editing by disrupting the association of ADAR2 with dsRNA, which induces the accumulation of PDZD7WT in cells to promote cancer. (B) MRPL9 ...

Aging-related diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disorders and type 2 diabetes, are associated with defects in protein synthesis and folding. Previous studies have shown that protein ...
