Redox Regulation in Animals for Slowing Ageing
Utilization of oxygen in varieties of biochemical reactions especially, in mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) to reduce O2 to H2O in aerobic organisms, lead to produce several active oxygen molecules. So, mainly ETC acts as the main hub in producing partially reduced O2, as several active oxygen species. These intermediate molecules are commonly known as reactive oxygen species (ROS; ...
متن کاملAgeing: Repair and Transcription Keep Us from Premature Ageing
Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is a complex disorder caused by mutations in the XPD gene which affect both DNA repair and transcription. A mouse with a TTD mutation has now been found to display remarkable signs of premature ageing.
متن کاملThe premature ageing syndromes: insights into the ageing process.
Ageing in man results from a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Many overlapping and sometimes conflicting theories of ageing exist and the emergence of a unified theory still seems unlikely. Experimental studies of senescence are difficult to design because of the variable effect of diseases and other extrinsic factors. The syndromes of accelerated ageing have been propo...
متن کاملProgeria: A rare genetic premature ageing disorder
Progeria is characterized by clinical features that mimic premature ageing. Although the mutation responsible for this syndrome has been deciphered, the mechanism of its action remains elusive. Progeria research has gained momentum particularly in the last two decades because of the possibility of revealing evidences about the ageing process in normal and other pathophysiological conditions. Va...
متن کاملAn international effort to cure premature ageing.
uman civilizations are remarkably diverse. However, their citizens share a common cliché that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. Now, in the developed world there is a third virtual certainty; which is that death will come as a consequence of old age. This population ageing is the central demographic fact of the 21st century. By 2030 anywhere from 25% to 40% of first world citize...
