Epstein-Barr virus infection precedes symptoms and biomarkers of multiple sclerosis and markedly increases disease risk.

Ovarian research aims to extend fertility and lengthen lives by delaying menopause—but the ultimate moonshot would be ending it altogether.

SUMMARY The induction of cellular reprogramming by forced expression of the transcription factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and C-MYC (OSKM) has been shown to allow the dedifferentiation of somatic cells and...

Leaks by U.S. officials suggest we are no longer in an indirect war with Russia but rather are edging toward a direct one.

Collective intelligence (CI) is critical to solving many scientific, business, and other problems, but groups often fail to achieve it. Here, we an...

Lysine Nε-acylations, such as acetylation or succinylation, are post-translational modifications that regulate protein function. In mitochondria, lysine acylation is predominantly non-enzymatic, and...

The Green Bay Packers quarterback, one of the most visible athletes in the country, last week used anti-vaccination rhetoric as his reasoning for not getting vaccinated against Covid-19.

And some people were naïve enough to believe they might be telling the truth.

Some people believe the hourslong outage may be linked to a supposed data breach that is, most likely, actually a scam.

Nature Aging - Plasma membrane damage (PMD) can induce cell death or be repaired, whereas other cell fates are not well explored. In this study, the authors found that PMD induces senescence in...

To help make sense of the scandal surrounding Britain’s prime minister, we enlisted the help of satirical newscaster, Jonathan Pie.

Netflix and Formula 1 can today confirm that the highly popular series, Formula 1: Drive To Survive has been renewed for a fifth and sixth season on Netflix.

Gilead’s Covid-19 drug remdesivir appeared to reduce hospitalizations by 87% in high-risk patients diagnosed early in the disease in a new study, the company said.

What if we could delay menopause and give women many more years of heathy, empowered, and fertile life?

Social media, in many ways, poisons our capacity to be present in the here and now.

It seems bizarre that in 2022, some biotech companies interested in doing something about aging are still saying that they are not. Cellular rejuvenation seems to be the latest buzzword and an...

Epstein-Barr virus infection precedes symptoms and biomarkers of multiple sclerosis and markedly increases disease risk.

Nature Metabolism - Kovatcheva et al. show that vitamin B12 improves the efficiency of in vivo reprogramming and tissue repair through its functions in one-carbon metabolism and epigenetic modulation.

Mammalian female reproductive lifespan is typically significantly shorter than life expectancy and is associated with a decrease in ovarian NAD+ levels. However, the mechanisms underlying this loss...

“I am a don’t-rock-the-boat kind of judge,” the justice told the senator in a discussion on Roe, according to notes from a meeting before his confirmation.

Cellular senescence is a major driver of aging and age-related diseases. Quantification of senescent cells remains challenging due to the lack of senescence-specific markers and generalist, unbiased...
