Negligible Senescence
In the development of a “new evolutionary genetics of aging” there is one issue that, in my opinion, requires additional attention: negligible senescence. Trees with longevities of hundreds of years or small invertebrates, like the hydra, that appear immortal seem to defy traditional theories of aging. Can we imagine a scenario in which Hamiltonian forces of natural selection never decline? Can...
متن کاملUpdate on slow aging and negligible senescence--a mini-review.
This review updates developments of the concept of negligible senescence, proposed in Longevity, Senescence, and the Genome in 1990, with new information for turtles, rockfish, and the naked mole-rat. However, centenarians certainly do not show negligible senescence.
متن کاملSenescence and longevity in amniotic fluid derived cells
Amniotic fluid stem cells (AFSC) are noncontroversial and abundant potentially transplantable cells. They are derived from fetal and amniotic sources and show osteogenic, neuronal, and adipogenic differentiation in culture. Clinical material must be expanded in culture and sorted if clinical use is desired. Cellular senescence and replicative potential for AFSC cultures has had limited study, w...
متن کاملIs There any Mean to Postpone The Menopausal Ovarian Senescence?
The ovarian reserve (OR) gradually decreases throughout the female fertile life. This continuous depletion in OR is irreversible. This occurs through a programmed cell death known apoptosis. Some factors hasten such depletion such as chemo- and radiotherapy. Others have been investigated in trials to preserve the OR including gonadotropins, cytokines, growth hormones, nitric oxide and reorganiz...
