Mouse models of ageing and their relevance to disease [PDF]
Ageing is a process that gradually increases the organism’s vulnerability to death. It affects different biological pathways, and the underlying cellular mechanisms are complex.

Dietary Overlap of Sympatric Polyphagous Alpine Grasshoppers Includes Invasive Plant Species
The diets of three sympatric grasshopper species were compared using mandible morphological analysis, microhistological examination, and DNA metabarcoding of gut contents. Although mandible morphology differed across species and sexes, dietary divergence was not evident.

Werner syndrome (WS) is a premature aging disease caused by a mutation in the WRN gene. The gene was identified in 1996 and its product acts as a DNA helicase and exonuclease. Some specific WRN polymorphic variants were associated with increased risk for

Characterization of Stress Responses in a Drosophila Model of Werner Syndrome
As organisms age, their resistance to stress decreases while their risk of disease increases. This can be shown in patients with Werner syndrome (WS), which is a genetic disease characterized by accelerated aging along with increased risk of cancer and ...

Long-term culture captures injury-repair cycles of colonic stem cells [PDF]
The colonic epithelium can undergo multiple rounds of damage and repair, often in response to excessive inflammation. The responsive stem cell that mediates this process is unclear, in part because of a lack of in vitro models that recapitulate key ...

Functional regulation of FEN1 nuclease and its link to cancer [PDF]
Flap endonuclease-1 (FEN1) is a member of the Rad2 structure-specific nuclease family. FEN1 possesses FEN, 5′-exonuclease and gap-endonuclease activities. The multiple nuclease activities of FEN1 allow it to participate in numerous DNA metabolic pathways,

Molecular pathology of phyllodes tumours of the breast—much more than MED12
Phyllodes tumours can develop from fibroadenomas bearing MED12 variants by the development of pTERT alterations (“MED12 pathway”) or de novo (“MED12 independent pathway”). Grade progression is associated with increasing genetic complexity including cancer driver gene aberrations. Molecular alterations can be useful in assigning grade and distinguishing

Improvement of heart rate recovery after exercise training in older people. [PDF]
Twenty-four subjects aged 70 and older were retrospectively selected from our archives and screened for symptoms of cardiovascular disease. Baseline exercise test was negative for myocardial ischemia in all subjects.

In 4976 U.S. adults from NHANES 2011–2020, dietary factors influenced urinary volatile organic compound metabolites (VOCMs) and modified their associations with multi‐dimensional biological aging. Multiple VOCMs were positively associated with biological age indicators, with KDMAgeAccel being the most sensitive marker.
