Aging, Obesity, and Inflammatory Age-Related Diseases
The increase in the prevalence of obesity represents a worldwide phenomenon in all age groups and is pathologically and genetically correlated with several metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, representing the most frequent age-related diseases. Obesity superimposed on aging drastically increases chronic low-grade inflammation (inflammaging), which is an important link between obesity, insuli...

متن کاملNeuronal and microglial cathepsins in aging and age-related diseases.
It has been long believed that cathepsins compensate for each other because of their overlapping substrate specificities. However, there is increasing evidence that disturbance of the normal balance of their enzymatic activities is the first insult in brain aging and age-related diseases. The imbalance of cathepsins may further cause age-related neuropathological changes such as accumulation of...
متن کاملImpact of epigenetics in aging and age related neurodegenerative diseases.
Epigenetics involves multiple processes such as DNA methylation, histone code modifications, and noncoding RNAs to regulate gene expression. In recent years the implications of epigenetic mechanisms have emerged in the field of neuroscience especially in brain development, memory, learning, and various cognition processes. Epigenetics also plays a pivotal role during the aging process of the br...
متن کاملmicroRNA in Cardiovascular Aging and Age-Related Cardiovascular Diseases
Over the last decades, life expectancy has significantly increased although several chronic diseases persist in the population, with aging as the leading risk factor. Despite improvements in diagnosis and treatment, many elderlies suffer from cardiovascular problems that are much more frequent in an older, more fragile organism. In the long term, age-related cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) contr...
