Forever Young
Propagation of a species requires periodic cell renewal to avoid clonal senescence. Liu et al. (2010) now describe a new mechanism of cell renewal in budding yeast, in which damaged protein aggregates are transported out of the daughter buds along actin cables to preserve youthfulness.
متن کاملForever Young: Death-Defying Neuroblasts
During development, many neural stem cells "age" as they sequentially generate distinct neuronal or glial cell types. In this issue, Maurange et al. (2008) now identify the temporal control factors in Drosophila neural stem cells (neuroblasts) that regulate the fate of stem cell progeny and signal the end of stem cell proliferation.
متن کاملAre Visual Peripheries Forever Young?
The paper presents a concept of lifelong plasticity of peripheral vision. Central vision processing is accepted as critical and irreplaceable for normal perception in humans. While peripheral processing chiefly carries information about motion stimuli features and redirects foveal attention to new objects, it can also take over functions typical for central vision. Here I review the data showin...
متن کاملForever young: rejuvenating muscle satellite cells
A hallmark of aging is alteration of organismal homeostasis and progressive decline of tissue functions. Alterations of both cell intrinsic functions and regenerative environmental cues contribute to the compromised stem cell activity and reduced regenerative capability occurring in aged muscles. In this perspective, we discuss the new evidence supporting the hypothesis that skeletal muscle ste...
متن کاملTo Be Forever Young? Towards Reframing Corporeal Subjectivity in Maturity
In this paper I examine the relationship between the body in midlife and subjectivity in contemporary western cultures, drawing on both social constructionist and psychoanalytic perspectives. Referring to recent theoretical accounts, I take the position that how we are aged by culture begins in midlife, and that this period is therefore critical in understanding how the body-subject in western ...
