Immune System Signatures Correlate with the Near Term Risk of Developing Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is universal; everyone develops fatty atherosclerotic plaques in their arteries at some point, and to some degree. Plaques narrow blood vessels to impede blood flow, and rupture of unstable plaque causes heart attack, stroke, and embolism.

Frailty assessment in naturally aged mouse models: classification, limitations, and future directions
Naturally aged mice provide an important platform for studying frailty because functional decline emerges during biological aging rather than through acute injury or artificial manipulation.

NRF2 Downregulation in Oligodendrocytes as a Contributing Cause of Cognitive Decline in Mice
Oligodendrocytes resident in the brain are responsible for maintaining the insulating myelin sheaths around axons that are required for the effective transmission of electrical impulses between neurons.

Amyloid-β Seeding as a Basis for a Blood Test for Alzheimer's Disease
Blood tests to assess Alzheimer's disease risk and progression exist, for example based on the presence of circulating varieties of tau protein, but there is a great deal of room for improvement.

Integrative Analysis Uncover the Effects and Multi‐Omics Features of Thigh Muscle Fat Infiltration
Thigh muscle fat infiltration (TMFI), estimated from MRI, is associated with increased mortality and diseases affecting multiple organ systems and mediates the effects of lifestyle factors on health. Multi-omics analyses delineate the genetic, cellular, transcriptional, proteomic, and metabolic architecture of TMFI.

Reaching 90 without dementia doesn’t mean you’re in the clear
A study of people over 90 found that dementia risk remains strongly shaped by sex, race and genetics, with women and black participants facing notably higher risks.
