Healthy ageing and spermatogenesis [PDF]
Reproduction, 2021 Abstract Delayed family planning and increased parental age increase the risk for infertility and impaired offspring health. While the impact of ageing on oogenesis is well studied, this is less understood on spermatogenesis. Assessing ageing effects on the male germline presents a challenge in differentiating between the effects of ...

The association between a fracture risk tool and frailty: Geelong Osteoporosis Study
BMC Geriatrics, 2020 Background Frailty is characterised by age-related declines in physical, psychological and social functioning. Features of frailty overlap with risk factors for fragility fractures.

C. elegans ageing is accelerated by a self-destructive reproductive programme
Nature Communications, 2023 In post-reproductive C. elegans, destructive somatic biomass repurposing supports production of yolk which, it was recently shown, is vented and can serve as a foodstuff for larval progeny.

Healthy Aging as Disease? [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2011 In the scientific and popular literature recently there has been a widespread call for classifying normal aging as a disease, a condition that can be “manipulated, treated, and delayed” (Gems, 2010; Kelland, 2010). The main argument given by supporters of this suggestion is that grant-awarding bodies would be more likely to fund research into how, when,

Plasma lipidome is dysregulated in Alzheimer’s disease and is associated with disease risk genes
Translational Psychiatry, 2021 Lipidomics research could provide insights of pathobiological mechanisms in Alzheimer’s disease. This study explores a battery of plasma lipids that can differentiate Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients from healthy controls and determines whether lipid ...

Protein and healthy aging [PDF]
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2015 Our understanding of the potential benefits and challenges of optimizing dietary protein intake in older adults continues to evolve. An overarching hypothesis generated during Protein Summit 2.0 was that consuming an adequate amount of high-quality protein at each meal, in combination with physical activity, may delay the onset of sarcopenia, slow its ...
