Most adult organs contain regenerative stem cells, often organized in specific niches. Stem
cell function is critical for tissue homeostasis and repair upon injury, and it is dependent on …

Aging is accompanied by the decline of organismal functions and a series of prominent
hallmarks, including genetic and epigenetic alterations. These aging-associated epigenetic …

Aging is characterized by a progressive deterioration of physiological integrity, leading to
impaired functional ability and ultimately increased susceptibility to death. It is a major risk …

Autophagy is a fundamental cellular process that eliminates molecules and subcellular
elements, including nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and organelles, via lysosome-mediated …

Cellular senescence entails a permanent proliferative arrest, coupled to multiple phenotypic
changes. Among these changes is the release of numerous biologically active molecules …

Skeletal muscle contains a designated population of adult stem cells, called satellite cells,
which are generally quiescent. In homeostasis, satellite cells proliferate only sporadically …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder. Impaired
neuronal bioenergetics and neuroinflammation are thought to play key roles in the …

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme for redox reactions, making it
central to energy metabolism. NAD+ is also an essential cofactor for non-redox NAD+ …

Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) are among the top contributors to
disability and mortality in later life. As with many chronic conditions, aging is the single most …

Nearly half a century has passed since the discovery of cytoplasmic inheritance of human
chloramphenicol resistance. The inheritance was then revealed to take place maternally by …
