Senescent cells walk a tightrope, risking cell death with high levels of iron and other damaging agents, but compensating for this by overproducing a protective protein, GPX4, which staves off death.
Ordinary human cells, not just neurons, respond more strongly to memory signals when they arrive in spaced bursts rather than ...
Blood tests measuring the aging of certain white blood cells can predict cognitive and mood-related symptoms of depression, ...
