Respiratory muscle senescence in ageing and chronic lung diseases

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2020
Ageing is a progressive condition that usually leads to the loss of physiological properties. This process is also present in respiratory muscles, which are affected by both senescent changes occurring in the whole organism and those that are more ...

Applying an Ethical Lens to the Treatment of People With Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The practice of neurology requires an understanding of clinical ethics for decision‐making. In multiple sclerosis (MS) care, there are a wide range of ethical considerations that may arise. These involve shared decision‐making around selection of a disease‐modifying therapy (DMT), risks and benefits of well‐studied medications in comparison to

AC ripple on DC voltage: Experimental and theoretical investigation of the impact on accelerated ageing in electrical insulation

open access: yesHigh Voltage
With the increasing penetration of DC systems into the high voltage and medium voltage power industry, DC voltage is becoming common for distribution/transmission and to supply different typologies of loads. The allowable extent of AC ripple superimposed

The relationship between premature ageing and immune responses in the oral cavity of Down syndrome

open access: yesJapanese Dental Science Review, 2010
Down syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal disorder resulting in various abnormalities such as mental retardation, immunodeficiency and physical abnormities. Especially, abnormality of the immune function is important pathological features in this

DNA methylation dynamics in aging: How far are we from understanding the mechanisms? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
DNA methylation is currently the most promising molecular marker for monitoring aging and predicting life expectancy. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related DNA methylation changes remain mostly undiscovered.Here we discuss the current knowledge ...

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

Mice lacking the mitochondrial exonuclease MGME1 accumulate mtDNA deletions without developing progeria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
It has been debated whether premature ageing in mitochondrial DNA mutator mice is driven by point mutations or deletions of mtDNA. Matic et al generate Mgme1 knockout mice and show here that these mice have tissue-specific replication stalling and ...

Senescent Cells in Early Vascular Ageing and Bone Disease of Chronic Kidney Disease—A Novel Target for Treatment

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Together with bone-mineral disorders, premature vascular ageing is a common feature of the uremic phenotype. A detailed understanding of mechanisms involved remains unclear and warrants further research.
