Cellular & Anti-aging Biology

Biotechnology Kiosk · February 18, 2020

This article provides commentary on a recent paper whose authors include MDI Biological Laboratory scientists Jarod Rollins, Ph.D., and Aric Rogers, Ph.D., that identifies synergistic cellular pathways for longevity that amplify lifespan fivefold in C. elegans, a nematode worm used as a model in aging research.

Synergistic Cellular Pathways Identified That Extend Lifespan by 500%

SciTechDaily · February 5, 2020

Scientists at the MDI Biological Laboratory, in collaboration with scientists from the Buck Institute forResearch on Aging in Novato, Calif., and Nanjing University in China, have identified synergistic cellular pathways for longevity that amplify lifespan fivefold in C. elegans, a nematode worm used as a model in aging research.

Scientists Find Mechanism That Extends Worm Lifespans by 500 Percent

Microsoft News · January 26, 2020

A few simple genetic changes is all it takes to prolong a worm’s life span by 500 percent, a new study has found.

Advances in Quest for Immortality

The Guardian · January 23, 2020
Scientists have made giant strides in the quest for immortality. They have identified synergistic cellular pathways for longevity that amplify lifespan fivefold in Caenorhabditis elegans, a nematode worm used as a model in ageing research.

Pathways That Extend Lifespan by 500 Percent Identified

Free Republic · January 21, 2020

Scientists have identified synergistic cellular pathways for longevity that amplify lifespan fivefold in C. elegans, a nematode worm used as a model in aging research. The increase in lifespan would be the equivalent of a human living for 400 or 500 years, according to one of the scientists.

Biological Pathways Which Boost Lifespan Identified

Digital Journal · January 17, 2020
Biologists have identified pathways which could extend lifespan by 500 percent. The finding, connected to cellular mechanisms. may pave the way for new and more effective anti-aging therapies.

Pathways That Extend Lifespan by 500 Percent Identified

Health Medicine Network · January 15, 2020

Scientists have identified pathways that extend lifespan by 500 percent. The increase in lifespan would be the equivalent of a human living for 400 or 500 years, according to one of the scientists.

Researchers Identify Cellular Pathways that Extend Lifespan by 500%

Technology.org · January 14, 2020

Working on C. elegans – a nematode worm commonly used in aging research due to its weeks-long lifespan and genetic similarities with humans – an international team of researchers from the U.S. and China have identified synergistic cellular pathways for longevity which can extend the host’s lifespan by as many as 500%.

Want to Live 400 Years? These Simple Nematode Worms Might Show Humans How

SyFyWire · January 14, 2020

In a new study published in the online journal Cell Reports, a team of international researchers has discovered methods to increase the lifespan of the lowly C. elegans worm by five times, long after its normal three or four week lifecycle. If these findings were successfully applied to human beings, that person would experience the equivalent of blowing out 400 birthday ca…
