Researchers from Ottawa University discovered new insights into the dysfunction of a protein, TDP-43, which is associated with ALS and FTD, and its regulation via a process called SUMOylation.

"When this process is blocked in vivo, we note age-dependent TDP-43 pathology and 1/2

Researchers from the CHU de Québec-Université Laval Research Center investigated the molecule SPARC, which is produced by muscles during exercise. When injected into mice it improved their muscles metabolic function, mimicking the beneficial effects of exercise. 1/2

March's Longevity Review is now out, where we will take a look at how low frequency ultrasound can reverse cellular senescence and increase mouse lifespan, as well as two studies on reducing lower back pain, the first of which uses epigenetic reprogramming, ... 1/2

Our first few posts have been labled as spam! But they're not! We were simply introducing ourselves.

What can we do about that??

Thanks!

Introducing the Canadian Longevity Association to Bluesky!

We are a federally incorporated non-profit whose mission is to help accelerate the introduction of effective longevity treatments and to ensure their free availability to all Canadians. #longevity #canada

In an observational study of over 100K adults followed for 30 years, it was found that eating healthily in mid-life was (surprise, surprise!) linked to healthier aging at 70 and 75. Healthier aging meant being free of chronic diseases, and in good mental and physical condition. More closely... 1/3
