Mechanisms by Which Air Pollution Contributes to Parkinson's Disease

The detrimental impacts of cumulative obesity exposures and their interactions with genetics on biological aging remain poorly understood.

The state of the cardiovascular system has a strong impact on the aging of the brain. The brain requires an sizable supply of energy, delivered via the bloodflow, and suffers when that supply is reduced.

From one perspective, the XPRIZE Healthspan research prize is a way to encourage what should be happening to a far greater extent in the development of means to treat aging as a medical condition, which is to assess which approaches are better…

At the Buck, our breakthroughs are powered by people. Faces of Discovery, a monthly installment to the Buck Blog, introduces the scientists unraveling the mysteries of aging and pioneering ways to help us all live better longer.

Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of aging, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here the authors show that, in the skin, BMAL1 and YAP cooperate at enhancers to maintain epidermal homeostasis.

People living near dry cleaners may have a higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease according to a new nationwide study led by researchers at Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix.
