90% of chronic disease linked to our environment. Comment in Nature Medicine posits understanding “how” is now possible w/ clinics & communities acting as real-world testbeds. Welcome to Human Exposome Project. Congrats @FurmanBios rdcu.be/edgxZ pressreleases.responsesource.com/news/106243/of…

New Buck blog! #geroscience hypothesis posits #aging is root cause of many chronic diseases. Targeting aging process could delay or prevent these conditions. This hypothesis being tested in tiny nematode worms and preliminary results are intriguing! buckinstitute.org/blog/unravelin…

Big breakthrough in #Parkinsons research could lead to new treatments. Study in Science Magazine visualizes #PINK1 for the 1st time and shows how it binds to mitochondria. Mutated PINK1 disrupts mitophagy which leads to cell death. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Linoleic acid is the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid in the Western-style diet and has been implicated in promoting inflammation and cancer. In Science, researchers report a mechanism by which linoleic acid can activate the mTORC1 protein kinase, which coordinates

In Science Signaling, researchers interrogate the mechanisms of neuroinflammation in mice and tie the process to a pathway involving microglia and the enzyme GCN5, hinting that this factor could potentially be a new therapeutic target. 📄: scim.ag/4iqtZww

Say no to sodas! Study in The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry details how excessive #sugar impacts specific organs. Example: excessive consumption causes a “molecular addiction” in the intestines, favoring the absorption of sugar over other essential nutrients. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Mining UK Biobank allows Buck researchers to link findings in simple animals to human health. It also helps direct research in model organisms as they attempt to identify mechanisms that drive aging and disease in humans. Pretty cool! Read latest blog: buckinstitute.org/blog/buck-rese…
