Cancer and aging are two sides of age-related tumorigenesis. The mission of the journal is to understand the mechanisms surrounding aging and age-related diseases, including cancer as the main cause of death in the modern aged population. The journal aims to promote 1) treatment of age-related diseases by slowing down aging, 2) validation of anti-aging drugs by treating age-related diseases, and 3) prevention of cancer by inhibiting aging. (Cancer and COVID-19 are age-related diseases.) Read about the Aging (Aging-US) Scientific Integrity Process: https://aging-us.com/scientific-integrityAll rights reserved 科学

  • A New Vision for Healthcare: Addressing Aging Before Disease Begins
    2025/06/25
    Recent discoveries in #aging research reveal a powerful insight: the biological changes that lead to chronic #diseases begin far earlier than most people realize—often in midlife, well before symptoms appear. This early phase offers a valuable opportunity for prevention. As highlighted in a recent editorial by Marco Demaria, Editor-in-Chief of Aging and a researcher at the European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing (ERIBA), University Medical Center Groningen, and the University of Groningen (RUG), the aging process itself – not just the diseases it produces – can and should be a primary focus of healthcare. The Problem with Traditional Medicine While modern healthcare has extended lifespan and improved treatment for many diseases, it tends to be insufficient in addressing the complex needs of aging populations. Older individuals frequently experience multiple chronic conditions simultaneously, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. This state of multimorbidity complicates care, increases the use of multiple medications, and reduces quality of life. The dominant traditional healthcare system, which typically begins only after symptoms appear, is costly and insufficient for addressing the interconnected nature of these conditions. A New Model for Healthcare: Insights from the Editorial In his recent editorial, “Rethinking healthcare through aging biology,” published in Aging Volume 17, Issue 5, Dr. Demaria outlines a shift from disease-specific treatment to targeting the biological mechanisms of aging itself, a more integrated and forward-looking approach. He presents three evolving healthcare models.

  • New Research Finds Telomere Shortening Not Consistent Across Premature Aging Disorders
    2025/06/25
    BUFFALO, NY — June 25, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 5, on May 28, 2025, titled “Investigating telomere length in progeroid syndromes: implications for aging disorders.” In this study, led by first author Luma Srour and corresponding authors Yosra Bejaoui and Nady El Hajj, from Hamad Bin Khalifa University, Qatar Foundation, researchers investigated whether shortened telomeres, a marker of cellular aging, are present across various rare genetic disorders that mimic early aging, known as progeroid syndromes. The study found that telomere shortening, also called telomere attrition, is not a shared characteristic of all these disorders. This finding is important because it challenges the belief that telomere loss is a common thread in premature aging and could help refine how these syndromes are studied and treated. Progeroid syndromes are rare conditions that cause individuals to display symptoms of aging far earlier than expected. While some of these syndromes share signs of typical aging, others arise from very different genetic alterations. Researchers focused on comparing telomere length in individuals with several of these syndromes to better understand how aging develops at the cellular level. Telomeres are protective ends of chromosomes that shorten as cells divide, acting as a biological clock linked to aging and disease. Using DNA methylation data from blood samples, the team analyzed telomere length in patients with six progeroid syndromes: Werner Syndrome, Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, Berardinelli-Seip Congenital Lipodystrophy type 2, Dyskeratosis Congenita, Cerebroretinal Microangiopathy with Calcifications and Cysts, and Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch Syndrome. They found significant telomere shortening only in classical Werner Syndrome, Berardinelli-Seip Congenital Lipodystrophy type 2, and Dyskeratosis Congenita. Other syndromes, including the widely studied Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, did not show this pattern. “To investigate whether progeroid syndromes have telomere attrition, we calculated telomere length using the DNAmAge web-based calculator.” The findings suggest that telomere shortening cannot be used as a universal marker for all forms of premature aging. In fact, some syndromes linked to DNA repair problems showed telomere damage, while others with different genetic mutations did not. These results indicate that the underlying biology of each syndrome is crucial in determining whether telomere shortening plays a role. Researchers also compared telomere lengths in people with genetic variants known to protect against age-related diseases. Those with protective genes had longer telomeres than people with progeroid syndromes. This study challenges assumptions about aging in rare disorders and highlights the need for more personalized approaches in aging research. By identifying which syndromes involve telomere attrition, it opens new avenues for treating or delaying aging-related symptoms. Future research may explore other biological factors behind premature aging and how genetic differences influence the aging process.

  • Moderate Caloric Restriction May Slow Ovarian Aging in Primates
    2025/06/24
    BUFFALO, NY — June 24, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 5, on May 20, 2025, titled “Short-term moderate caloric restriction in the rhesus macaque attenuates markers of ovarian aging in select populations.” In this study, led by first author Emma S. Gargus and corresponding author Francesca E. Duncan from Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University, researchers explored how dietary changes impact ovarian aging in female rhesus macaques. They found that a three-year moderate reduction in caloric intake preserved a youthful distribution of ovarian follicles and reduced age-related tissue stiffness. These findings are relevant to women’s health as they suggest that caloric restriction (CR) may help delay the decline in reproductive function associated with aging. Ovarian aging, which leads to reduced fertility and hormone production, is one of the earliest signs of aging in women. This study investigated whether a 30% reduction in caloric intake could protect the ovaries from age-related damage in nonhuman primates (NHP), whose reproductive biology closely mirrors that of humans. Ovaries were collected from young (10–13 years) and old (19–26 years) rhesus macaques who were either on a diet of moderate caloric restriction or a control diet for three years. “To test the effect of CR on follicle number, follicles were analyzed in histological sections from animals across experimental cohorts: Young Control, Young CR, Old Control, Old CR (n = 4–8/group).” Although total follicle numbers still declined with age, caloric restriction helped maintain the types of follicles most associated with reproductive potential. In older monkeys who were still cycling, even if irregularly, caloric restriction preserved more primordial follicles, the key indicators of ovarian reserve, than in those on a normal diet. The benefits of caloric restriction were also seen in the structure of ovarian tissue. Normally, aging leads to fibrosis, a stiffening of the ovarian environment caused by increased collagen and decreased hyaluronic acid. This study showed that caloric restriction reduced this fibrotic process, suggesting a more supportive environment for maintaining reproductive health. While the diet did not stop the overall loss of follicles with age, it improved the proportion of younger, more viable follicles in aging ovaries. The timing of the dietary intervention also appeared to matter. Positive effects were more noticeable in older animals with irregular cycles than in those who had completely stopped cycling. This indicates that starting caloric restriction at a certain point in the reproductive lifespan may yield the best results. This research is an important step to identifying lifestyle-based strategies that can extend reproductive longevity. Although further studies are needed to test these findings in humans, the work supports the potential of moderate dietary changes to delay ovarian aging and help preserve fertility later in life.
