В настоящем обзоре установлена связь между эволюционноконсервативной группой генов, формирующих молекулярный осциллятор, ответственный за генерацию циркадных ритмов, и генетическими детерминантами процесса старения, а также... more
The review establishes a link between a group of genes which are conserved in evolution and form a molecular oscillator responsible for generation of circadian rhythms and genetic determinants of aging including associated pathways of... more
Aging is currently stimulating intense interest of both researchers and the general public. In developed countries, the average life expectancy has increased by roughly 30 years within the last century, and human senescence has been... more
Many diets and nutritional advice are circulating, often based on short-or medium-term clinical trials and primary outcomes, like changes in LDL cholesterol or weight. It remains difficult to assess which dietary interventions can be... more
Metallothionein (MT) is a low molecular weight protein with anti-apoptotic properties that has been demonstrated to scavenge free radicals in vitro. MT has not been extensively investigated within the context of aging biology. The purpose... more
A fairly deep, almost Buddhist theory of hermetic immortality.
Survivorship experiments play a central role in aging research and are performed to evaluate whether interventions alter the rate of aging and increase lifespan. The accelerated failure time (AFT) model is seldom used to analyze... more
Longevity and rejuvenation therapies are becoming a reality, yet we continue to obviate them as viable options. In this article, I explore some common misconceptions about the aims and limits of life-extension research, and the necessity... more

Introduction: Something that has been proven for skin tissue can probably be applied to the whole body by a rejuvenation device.
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) maintain proteostasis and may protect against age-associated pathology caused by protein malfolding. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the lifespan extension and thermotolerance in mutants with impaired insulin/IGF... more
Would this method for uncovering hidden objects, feature discovery, feature selection and supervised learning work? According to my understanding perfect prediction by computation optimization must be impossible as long as essential input... more
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have proven to be effective tools for extending invertebrate lifespan, and in C. elegans daf‐2 mutants, longevity resulting from loss of insulin / insulin‐like signals is at least partly dependent upon elevated... more
The E(z) histone methyltransferase heterozygous mutation in Drosophila is known to increase lifespan and stress resistance. However, the longevity mechanisms of E(z) mutants have not been revealed. Using genome-wide transcriptome... more
A theoretical model of a nonlinear network that outlines the general aspects of mole-rat resistance to age-related diseases, such as cancer and the action of ROS was elaborated. According to our conjecture, it was shown that the... more
