Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has significantly increased life expectancy of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive population. Nevertheless, the average lifespan of HIV-patients remains shorter compared to uninfected individuals. Immunosenescence, a current explanation for this difference invokes heavily on viral stimulus despite HAART efficiency in viral suppression. W...
Schizophrenia is associated with a number of anatomical and physiological abnormalities outside of the brain, as well as with a decrease in average life span estimated at 20% in the United States. Some studies suggest that this increased mortality is not entirely due to associated causes such as suicide and the use of psychotropic medications. In this article, in order to focus greater attentio...
The aging process is the major risk factor for disease and disability yet the cellular mechanisms for aging are uncertain. By studying transgenic mice with altered expression of the DNA repair enzyme, ERCC1, it was concluded that DNA damage is an important, if not the primary mechanism for aging. Moreover it was established that altered activity of the transcription factor, NF-κB (nuclear facto...
systems have revealed evidence for an age-related increase in the abundance of CypD, a peptidyl prolyl-cis, trans-isomerase located in the mitochondrial matrix. Such an increase was reported in the short-lived aging model organism Podospora anserina [1,2] but also in rat gastrocnemius muscle and in brain tissue of mice and humans [2-3]. The enzyme is known to be involved in the regulation of th...
Individuals suffering from Werner syndrome (WS) exhibit many clinical signs of accelerated aging. While the underlying constitutional mutation leads to accelerated rates of DNA damage, it is not yet known whether WS is also associated with an increased epigenetic age according to a DNA methylation based biomarker of aging (the "Epigenetic Clock"). Using whole blood methylation data from 18 WS c...
Down Syndrome (DS) entails an increased risk of many chronic diseases that are typically associated with older age. The clinical manifestations of accelerated aging suggest that trisomy 21 increases the biological age of tissues, but molecular evidence for this hypothesis has been sparse. Here, we utilize a quantitative molecular marker of aging (known as the epigenetic clock) to demonstrate th...
The accumulation of cellular damage, including DNA damage, is thought to contribute to aging-related degenerative changes, but how damage drives aging is unknown. XFE progeroid syndrome is a disease of accelerated aging caused by a defect in DNA repair. NF-κB, a transcription factor activated by cellular damage and stress, has increased activity with aging and aging-related chronic diseases. To...
