Abstract A comprehensive understanding of molecular changes during brain aging is essential to mitigate cognitive decline and delay neurodegenerative diseases. The interpretation mRNA alterations influenced by the health age animal cohorts studied. Here, we carefully consider these factors provide an in-depth investigation splicing dynamics in mouse brain, combining short- long-read sequencing technologies with extensive bioinformatic analyses. Our findings encompass a spectrum age-related changes, including differences isoform usage, decreased module showing increased expression neuronal genes. Notably, our results indicate reduced abundance isoforms leading nonsense-mediated RNA decay suggest regulatory role for RNA-binding proteins, indicating that their regulation may be altered reshaping aged transcriptome. Collectively, study highlights importance studying events aging.

Recently, the hallmarks of aging were updated to include dysbiosis, disabled macroautophagy, and chronic inflammation. In particular, low-grade inflammation during aging, without overt infection, is defined as "inflammaging," which associated with increased morbidity mortality in population. Emerging evidence suggests a bidirectional cyclical relationship between development age-related conditions, such cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration, cancer, frailty. How crosstalk other underlies biological mechanisms disease thus particular interest current geroscience research.

Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases are two of the most frequent neurological diseases. The clinical features AD memory decline cognitive dysfunction, while PD mainly manifests as motor dysfunction such limb tremors, muscle rigidity abnormalities, slow gait. Abnormalities in cholesterol, sphingolipid, glycerophospholipid metabolism have been demonstrated to directly exacerbate progression by stimulating Aβ deposition tau protein tangles. Indirectly, abnormal lipids can increase burden on brain vasculature, induce insulin resistance, affect structure neuronal cell membranes. Abnormal lipid leads through inducing accumulation α-syn, mitochondria endoplasmic reticulum, ferroptosis. Great progress has made targeting abnormalities for treatment recent years, like metformin, insulin, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) agonists, monoclonal antibodies apolipoprotein E (ApoE). This review comprehensively summarizes involvement dysregulated pathogenesis PD, application Lipid Monitoring, emerging regulatory drug targets. A better understanding lipidological bases may pave way developing effective prevention methods neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract In women who are getting older, the quantity and quality of their follicles or oocytes decline. This is characterized by decreased ovarian reserve function (DOR), fewer remaining oocytes, lower oocytes. As more choose to delay childbirth, decline in fertility associated with age has become a significant concern for modern women. The oocyte key indicator aging. Many studies suggest that age-related changes energy metabolism may impact quality.

The activation of macrophages or microglia in patients' whole body local eyes play significant roles diabetic retinopathy (DR). Mitochondrial function regulates the inflammatory polarization macrophages. Therefore, common mechanism mitochondrial related genes (MRGs) and macrophage polarisation (MPRGs) DR is explored our study to illustrate pathophysiology DR. In this study, using transcriptome data, differentially expressed (DEGs) were firstly analysed for GSE221521, while module MPRGs obtained by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), intersections DEGs with MRGs taken, taken.

Ischemic heart disease invariably leads to devastating damage human health. Nicotinamide ribose (NR), as one of the precursors NAD+ synthesis, has been discovered exert a protective role in various neurological and cardiovascular disorders. Our findings demonstrated that pretreatment with 200 mg/kg NR for 3 h significantly reduced myocardial infarct area, decreased levels CK-MB LDH serum, improved cardiac function rats during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Meanwhile, 0.5 mM also effectively increased viability release H9c2 cells OGD/R. We had provided evidence could decrease mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production MDA content, enhance SOD activity, thereby mitigating inhibiting apoptosis I/R Further investigations revealed content upregulated SIRT3 protein expression myocardium. Through using small interfering RNA deacetylase activity inhibitor 3-TYP, we confirmed cardioprotective effect on cardiomyocytes was largely dependent inhibition oxidative stress via SIRT3-SOD2 axis. Overall, our study suggested exogenous supplementation mitigated inhibited injury by reducing SIRT3-SOD2-mtROS pathway.

Glaucoma is characterized by the progressive degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons, its risk increases with aging. Yet comprehensive insights into complex mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we found that anti-aging molecule Sirt6 was highly expressed in RGCs. Deleting globally or specifically RGCs led to RGC loss optic nerve during aging, despite normal intraocular pressure (IOP), resembling a phenotype normal-tension glaucoma. These detrimental effects were potentially mediated accelerated senescence through Caveolin-1 upregulation induction mitochondrial dysfunction. In mouse models high-tension glaucoma, level decreased after IOP elevation. Genetic overexpression significantly attenuated high tension-induced whereas partial RGC-specific deletion loss. Importantly, therapeutically targeting pharmacological activator AAV2-mediated gene delivery ameliorated IOP-induced degeneration. Together, our studies reveal critical role preventing aging setting stage for further exploration activation as potential therapy
