The Dog Aging Project, led by Matt Kaeberlein and Daniel Promislow, is an ongoing study tracking tens of thousands of companion dogs in the US to find factors contributing to aging. As part of the project, #rapamycin is also being tested in dogs: en.longevitywiki.org/wiki/Dog_Aging… #longevitywiki
Our Aging Fly Cell Atlas is out. Do different cell types age at the same rate? No. Which cell types age faster? Fat, liver and muscle. Which cell types age slower? Neurons. Great collaboration with Stephen Quake Henri Jasper Maria Brbic Tzu-Chiao Lu
Serum albumin is an important biomarker of #aging , according to deep-learner predictors of biological age. A study performed by an insurance company has shown that levels of serum #albumin might be predictive of overall mortality. Learn more at:

Activating transcription factor 4 ( #ATF -4) is required for the lifespan extension of mTORC1 inhibition (target of #rapamycin ) and of translation inhibition, and cooperates with over key longevity transcription factors. Learn more about this protein at:

Heat-shock response is a result of exposure to elevated temperature, in which cells activate various protective mechanisms. This response is mediated by heat-shock proteins. What role do heat-shock proteins play in the aging process? Find out at:en.longevitywiki.org/wiki/Heat-shoc…

Resveratrol is produced by some plants after injury or infection. Numerous experiments have investigated the lifespan & healthspan effects of #resveratrol across species, carrying conflicting results. Where is the science now? Find out at: en.longevitywiki.org/wiki/Resveratr… #longevitywiki

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), also known as glycotoxins, are harmful oxidant compounds that result from a sugar being added to proteins or fats. Animal-derived food & dry heat for cooking leads t higher production of AGEs. Learn more at:
