On the emergence of the correlation between life expectancy and the variance in the age at death
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 Recent empirical studies have found various patterns in the correlations between lifespan inequality and life expectancy in modern human populations. However, it is unclear how general these regularities are. Here we establish three theorems that provide

Aging as a consequence of misrepair -- A novel theory of aging [PDF]
, 2009 It is now increasingly realized that the underlying mechanisms which govern aging is a complex interplay of genetic regulation and damage accumulation. Aging as a result of accumulation of ‘faults’ on cellular and molecular levels, has been

Two aspects of longevity are associated with rates of loss of telomeres in birds
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Telomeres, the terminal repetitive DNA sequences at the ends of linear chromosomes, have strong associations with longevity in some major taxa. Longevity has been linked to rate of decline in telomere length in birds and mammals, and absolute telomere ...

Prediction of the lifespan of cement at a specific depth based on the coupling of geomechanical and geochemical processes for CO2 storage [PDF]
, 2019 The injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from combustion-based processes into underground formations is one of a number of plausible methods to reduce its release into the atmosphere and consequential greenhouse gas warming.

Gene expression defines natural changes in mammalian lifespan [PDF]
Aging Cell, 2015 SummaryMammals differ more than 100‐fold in maximum lifespan, which can be altered in either direction during evolution, but the molecular basis for natural changes in longevity is not understood. Divergent evolution of mammals also led to extensive changes in gene expression within and between lineages.

Structural Brain Network Changes across the Adult Lifespan [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017 A number of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have shown age-related alterations in brain structural networks in different age groups. However, the specific age-associated changes in brain structural networks across the adult lifespan is underexplored.

Proline metabolism regulates replicative lifespan in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Microbial Cell, 2019 In many plants and microorganisms, intracellular proline has a protective role against various stresses, including heat-shock, oxidation and osmolarity. Environmental stresses induce cellular senescence in a variety of eukaryotes.
