Scientists reverse eye cell aging with ER-100 gene therapy that reprograms retinal neurons to younger states, offering hope ...

Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their ...

Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

For the first time ever, an anti-aging drug is providing hope for millions who suffer from this common condition.

The MarketWatch News Department was not involved in the creation of this content. Peer-reviewed discovery platform and data in PNAS show that single transcription factor modulation reverses ...

Life runs on information. In living systems, that information takes two main forms: the genome and the epigenome. The genome stays mostly stable. The epigenome, however, constantly shifts, shaped by ...

Boston-based Life Biosciences is testing whether reprogramming human cells can slow or even reverse the effects of aging. Unsplash Life Biosciences, a Boston-based biotechnology company founded in ...

The first clinical attempt to make human beings biologically younger is no longer a thought experiment. A small gene therapy trial, cleared quietly by regulators in the United States, is now moving ...

Emerging research suggests that lifestyle factors including exercise, nutrition and heat exposure may influence the cellular pathways that drive aging. Most of us learned that aging results from the ...
