Chronic inflammation of the middle ear can cause several problems and complications that can affect a person's hearing and balance. One such problem is the formation of a cholesteatoma, which is an abnormal collection of cells in the ear that…
The human face is one of the most complex structures formed during embryonic development. Its formation requires different cell populations to produce bones, muscles, nerves, blood vessels, teeth, and glands, all arranged in the correct positions and connected to perform…
By ANNA JANE BEGLEY, DIGITAL WRITER We’ve all heard of the Mediterranean diet: plenty of fish, extra virgin olive oil, wholegrains and plants, with a sparing amount of meat and dairy. Decades of research has shown it can prevent a…
A new discovery has shed new light on the crucial role of the CD47 protein in bone fracture healing. Scientists have identified CD47 as an essential regulator of mesenchymal progenitor cell (MSC) proliferation—cells critical for bone repair. Without CD47, bone healing was…
The chef-crafted line brings Blueprint's longevity protocol to Tovala, making longevity-focused nutrition easier to put into practice at home "Nutrition is something I've cared about personally for a long time, and I've always believed Tovala could play a bigger role…
Researchers have examined closely how sarcomeres, the basic building blocks within all skeletal and cardiac muscles, work together using a new technique. Their findings could advance research into a wide range of muscle malfunctions as simple as a slight strain…
As time marches on, our bodies can gradually enter a state of chronic low-grade inflammation known as inflammaging. This process accelerates aging and increases the risk of age-related diseases, from heart conditions to diabetes to cognitive decline. “This persistent inflammatory…
Praia, Cabo Verde – The Technical Support Group (TSG) for the National Programme for Older Persons met on 24 August at the offices of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Cabo Verde to review and discuss the adaptation of the new Integrated…
Scientists looking at why aging muscles weaken have found an unexpected twist. A decline in a little-known mitochondrial fat called cardiolipin appears to help drive the shift that changes muscle fibers with age, and that shift may function as a…
Researchers have found that declining cardiolipin levels may trigger a protective shift in ageing muscles, with potential implications for treating muscle loss. (A representative image) Scientists have discovered a hidden protective mechanism in ageing muscles that limits strength to shield…
Ageing well: the science of longevity, staying healthy in later life, and preventing falls and frailty.
