Physicochemical and biological ageing processes of (micro)plastics in the environment: a multi-tiered study on polyethylene [PDF]
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int, 2022 Pollution by plastic and microplastic impacts the environment globally. Knowledge on the ageing mechanisms of plastics in natural settings is needed to understand their environmental fate and their reactivity in the ecosystems.

A catalogue of omics biological ageing clocks reveals substantial commonality and associations with disease risk [PDF]
Aging (Albany NY), 2021 Biological age (BA), a measure of functional capacity and prognostic of health outcomes that discriminates between individuals of the same chronological age (chronAge), has been estimated using a variety of biomarkers.

Кардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2015 Aim. To study the relation of pulse wave velocity (PWV) as arterial stiffness index, and the level of biochemical factors elevation, that are involved in atherothrombogenesis and play role in determination of cardiovascular risk in various age patients ...

Biological mechanisms of ageing [PDF]
Eye, 1987 In a short review of the theories or proposed biological mechanisms of ageing it is necessary to be very selective in the ideas which are included or rejected. Although many theories of ageing are advanced in the literature a high proportion can be considered to be special cases of a previous hypothesis. No one individual theory satisfactorily explains

The short-lived African turquoise killifish: an emerging experimental model for ageing
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2016 Human ageing is a fundamental biological process that leads to functional decay, increased risk for various diseases and, ultimately, death. Some of the basic biological mechanisms underlying human ageing are shared with other organisms; thus, animal ...

Serum Response Factor in muscle tissues: from development to ageing
European Journal of Translational Myology, 2016 Skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle cells share various common characteristic features. During development the embryonic mesodermal layer contribute at different proportions to the formation of these tissues.

Surgery in the age of biologics
Gastroenterology Report, 2019 Since the introduction of the first anti-tumor necrosis factor antibodies in the late 1990s, biologic therapy has revolutionized the medical treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Nevertheless, surgery continues to play a significant role in treating IBD patients.
