Globally, scientists are working to unlock the secrets of extending human lifespan at the cellular level, where aging occurs ...

Washington State University scientists have created genetically-engineered mice that could help accelerate anti-aging ...

After years of hard work, scientists have succeeded in creating genetically-engineered mice that could help accelerate ...

Researchers have developed HuT mice, a genetically engineered model with human-like telomeres, enabling scientists to study ...

Led by WSU College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Professor Jiyue Zhu, the research team has developed mice that have human-like short telomeres, enabling the study of cellular aging as it ...

Learn how scientists have identified key regions of the brain where aging begins. Dive into the fascinating cellular atlas of ...

The Senescence Accelerated Mouse-Prone 8 (SAMP8) is a naturally occuring mouse line that displays a phenotype of accelerated aging. While maintaining an inbred AKR/J line in the early 1970's, ...

The mouse model in the study is reportedly quite different as it allows scientists to observe the aging process in a whole organism.

Danish scientists found that a molecule called norepinephrine plays a key role in the brain's cleaning in mice. During deep sleep, the brainstem releases tiny waves of norepinephrine about once ...

One recent study in mice uncovered that menopause led to a drop in 17beta-estradiol and progesterone, which increased cartilage aging, degeneration, and disassembly of the extracellular matrix.

Their study in mice showed how deep sleep may wash away waste buildup in the brain during waking hours, an essential process for maintaining brain health. The results for the first time describe ...
