Researchers are increasingly developing biological age meters, also known as ‘aging clocks’. These tools attempt to determine how fast the body is ageing by analysing various biological data. Yet it

Researchers have developed a new approach that can slow down ageing in mice by removing old and damaged cells, also known as senescent cells, from the body. These cells keep

Researchers have developed an innovative method to combat the ageing process in bones. In a recent study, they used a gene therapy targeting immune cells, macrophages, to

The klotho gene is one of the few genes that is strongly linked to a longer lifespan. This gen produces a protein that is particularly notable for slowing down the ageing process.

Exercise is one of the best ways to slow down the ageing process. Scientists say that regular exercise is just as important as a healthy diet with fewer calories. Exercise helps

Scientists have developed a new method to determine the biological age of immune cells. To do this, they look at the structure of chromatin, the material in which the DNA in cells is housed

Researchers have developed a new treatment that greatly improves the health of older mice. This therapy focuses on increasing the protein FGF21, which plays an important role

Recent research shows that age-related macular degeneration, a condition affecting the retina, is more frequently associated with an increased risk of cancer. At first glance, this seems surprising, because these

Researchers have produced a comprehensive map of senescent cells in the human body. Senescent cells, also known as ageing cells, are cells that stop dividing but do not die. These

In September 2026, the 7th TimePie Longevity Forum will convene in Shanghai, bringing together nearly 2,000 experts from science, healthcare, technology, and investors. The aim is to accelerate research

New research shows that antioxidants can play an important role in removing old, poorly functioning muscle cells. These cells are called senescent and lose their normal functions,

Scientists have found a new method to reduce harmful effects of ageing cells by better regulating calcium in the body. As people age, they accumulate

Researchers have discovered a new type of protein aggregation in the brain that may contribute to Alzheimer's disease. It involves an accumulation of a protein called GRK2, which is

New research shows that medicines that stimulate GLP-1 receptors can slow down the ageing process. These medicines are mainly used to lose weight. They help people to eat fewer calories,

Researchers have discovered a new way to predict biological age using liver data. This method uses computer programs that learn to recognise patterns in

Recent research shows that a protein produced by ageing cells negatively affects the functioning of bone tissue. This protein, called thrombospondin-1, causes immune cells to be less effective at

Research into various animal species shows that a lower resting metabolic rate often goes hand in hand with a longer lifespan. Resting metabolic rate means the amount of energy an organism uses at rest for its basic processes.

Researchers are continuously searching for reliable methods to measure biological age. Biological age says something about how fast someone is ageing, which can differ from chronological age. This is important

Researchers have developed a new gene treatment that extends the lifespan of mice by twenty percent. This is done by injecting the protein FGF21 into the muscles via gene therapy. FGF21

Cells in our bodies can age when they become damaged or have divided a certain number of times. These senescent cells stop dividing and release substances that cause inflammation

As the human body ages, more cells become senescent. This means these cells no longer divide or function properly, but release harmful substances that promote inflammation.

Recent research shows that men with an increased amount of tyrosine in their bodies may have a shorter life expectancy. Tyrosine is an amino acid commonly used in supplements that

Scientists are making more and more discoveries about the causes of ageing and how that relates to inflammation in the body. For instance, it turns out that DNA and RNA that normally inside the cell nucleus

As we get older, fatty deposits, also known as atherosclerotic plaques, can build up in the walls of our blood vessels. These plaques make the vessel walls weaker and narrow them, which
