The population of older adults with obesity is rapidly increasing. Through shared pathophysiologic mechanisms, obesity exacerbates the age-related decline in physical function, which leads to frailty and disability. Obesity and aging are characterized by

Progeria and accelerated cardiovascular aging
Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria syndrome (HGPS) is characterized by accelerated aging leading to death in the teen years, usually due to severe coronary and/or carotid disease. The clinical presentation includes stunted growth, alopecia, loss of subcutaneous

Deletion of enzymes for de novo NAD + biosynthesis accelerated ovarian aging
Recent advances highlight the pivotal role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in ovarian aging. However, the roles of de novo NAD+ biosynthesis on ovarian aging are still unknown.

Sickle cell disease as an accelerated aging syndrome
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by vaso-occlusion, hemolysis, and systemic manifestations that form the hallmark of the disease. Apart from morbidity, SCD is also associated with increased mortality and decreased quality of life.

Cancer Treatment-Induced Accelerated Aging in Cancer Survivors: Biology and Assessment
Simple Summary Many modalities used to treat or control cancer lead to accelerated aging in cancer survivors. However, the effects of cancer treatments on aging in individuals with cancer remain poorly studied.

Accelerated aging: A marker for social factors resulting in cardiovascular events?
Background: Medicine and public health are shifting away from a purely “personal responsibility” model of cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention towards a societal view targeting social and environmental conditions and how these result in disease. Given

Failure of immunosurveillance accelerates aging [PDF]
Immunosurveillance is generally conceived as a mechanism through which the immune system detects and eliminates (pre-)malignant cells, thus reducing the risk of developing cancer. A recent paper by Ovadya et al. demonstrates that knockout of the gene coding for perforin-1 causes accelerated accumulation of senescent cells in multiple mouse organs ...

Obesity and accelerated epigenetic aging in a high-risk cohort of children
New insights into mechanisms linking obesity to poor health outcomes suggest a role for cellular aging pathways, casting obesity as a disease of accelerated biological aging. Although obesity has been linked to accelerated epigenetic aging in middle-aged
