Accelerating aging with dynamic biomaterials: Recapitulating aged tissue phenotypes in engineered platforms

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Aging is characterized by progressive decline in tissue function and represents the greatest risk factor for many diseases. Nevertheless, many fundamental mechanisms driving human aging remain poorly understood. Aging studies using model organisms are often limited in their applicability to humans.

The X-chromosome instability phenotype in Alzheimer’s disease: A clinical sign of accelerating aging? [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Hypotheses, 2009
Premature centromere division, or premature centromere separation (PCS), occurs when chromatid separation is dysfunctional, occurring earlier than usual during the interphase stage of mitosis. This phenomenon, seen in Robert's syndrome and various cancers, has also been documented in peripheral as well as neuronal cells of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Contribution of life course circumstances to the acceleration of phenotypic and functional aging: A retrospective study

open access: yeseClinicalMedicine, 2022
Accelerated aging leads to increasing burdens of chronic diseases in late life, posing a huge challenge to the society. With two well-developed aging measures (i.e., physiological dysregulation [PD] and frailty index [FI]), this study aimed to evaluate the relative contributions of life course circumstances (e.g., childhood and adulthood socioeconomic ...

Phenotypic flexibility and the evolution of organismal design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Evolutionary biologists often use phenotypic differences between species and between individuals to gain an understanding of organismal design. The focus of much recent attention has been on developmental plasticity – the environmentally induced ...

Photon acceleration in vacuum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A new process associated with the nonlinear optical properties of the electromagnetic vacuum, as predicted by quantum electrodynamics, is described. This can be called photon acceleration in vacuum, and corresponds to the frequency shift that takes place

ΔNp63&alpha Overexpression Induces Downregulation of Sirt1 and an Accelerated Aging Phenotype in the Mouse [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2006
p63 is highly expressed in the skin and appears to be an early marker of keratinocyte differentiation. To examine the role of p63 in vivo, we generated transgenic mice that overexpress deltaNp63alpha in the skin. These mice exhibited an accelerated aging phenotype in the skin characterized by striking wound healing defects, decreased skin thickness ...

Vertical evolution of auroral acceleration at substorm onset [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This study describes the onset process of auroral substorms in connection with the vertical evolution of auroral particle acceleration, on the basis of auroral kilometric radiation (AKR) dynamics.

Evaluation of epigenetic age acceleration scores and their associations with CVD related phenotypes in a population cohort

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Abstract We evaluated associations between nine epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) scores and 18 cardio-metabolic phenotypes using an Eastern European ageing population cohort richly annotated for a diverse set of phenotypes (subsample, n = 306; aged 45-69 years).
