Peroxisomes and aging.
Peroxisomes are indispensable for proper functioning of human cells. They efficiently compartmentalize enzymes responsible for a number of metabolic processes, including the absolutely essential beta-oxidation of specific fatty acid chains. These and other oxidative reactions produce hydrogen peroxide, which is, in most instances, immediately processed in situ to water and oxygen. The responsib...
متن کاملCell senescence in the aging kidney.
Pedigree genetics and environment modulate the biological process of aging. The permanent and irreversible growth arrest of cell senescence is a central paradigm of aging. Various pathophysiologic pressures such as oxidative stress and mitochondrial injury can also induce senescence. Senescent cells secrete altered levels of growth factors, show increased susceptibility to apoptosis, and associ...
متن کاملAging and Pension reform with Change contribution rates
Increased life expectancy and reduced fertility rates have led to aging which is one of the main causes of the pension funds imbalances in Iran’s pension funds. In order to resolve these imbalances, some reforms are required. The first option is to use parametric reforms, such as changing contribution rates of the pension system. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of aging and c...
متن کاملMitochondrial dysfunction and cell senescence — skin deep into mammalian aging
Thus, we are again left with a chicken-and egg situation: Is disrupted Ca2+ signalling, reduced mTOR activity and increased autophagy found in SOD2-/- cells because there are more senescent cells in the examined population? Or is any of these factors the culprit that triggers senescence in the first place? While the answer to these questions still eludes us, the study from Campisi and colleague...
متن کاملCell senescence: role in aging and age-related diseases.
Cell senescence is one of the major paradigms of aging research. It started with the demonstration by L. Hayflick of the limited number of divisions by normal, nontransformed cells, not shown by transformed malignant cells, this processes being largely regulated by the telomere-telomerase system. A complete renewal of this discipline came from the demonstration that cells can enter senescence a...
