ABSTRACT A deeper understanding of the molecular processes involved in psychological wellbeing older adults is essential for advancing knowledge underlying biological mechanisms. Leveraging proteomics data from 3,262 (mean age=63.5 years, 55% female) English Longitudinal Study Ageing (ELSA), we investigated cross-sectional and longitudinal associations (before after protein measurement) between 276 proteins eudaimonic wellbeing, hedonic life satisfaction, depressive symptoms, over 20-year span. For positive two (DEFB4A ECE1) were longitudinally associated with subsequent trajectory. We further identified higher concentrations 7, 8, 2 linked to lower respectively. Sex differences XCL1 SLAMF7 observed, males. These findings link human regulation several pathways, particularly involving cytokine regulation, neurotrophic signaling, inflammatory immune systems.

Опубликована: Фев. 27, 2025

The biological complexity of wellbeing is studied from various perspectives, including genetics and epigenetics. However, there a knowledge gap concerning other layers, such as metabolomics, which dynamic changes throughout life. This study explores the association between metabolites in sample (N = 4748) drawn Netherlands Twin Register. A latent factor score for was constructed based on: Quality Life, Life Satisfaction, Subjective Happiness. total 231 blood were analyzed using 1HNMR technique. Linear regression models performed each metabolite, while correcting family clustering, relevant covariates, multiple testing. None significantly associated with after testing correction. Despite lack significant findings, 34 lowest p-value (0.25) pointed to same metabolic pathway: endogenous lipid metabolism. pathway has previously been linked GWAS related phenotypes metabolomic studies. In conclusion, this confirms speculates on potential role lipids. Further research needed confirm these hypotheses.

Montessori is the most common alternative education in world by far, and it exists both public private schools extends from birth to university. A prior study found that attendance as a child, controlling for demographic factors including SES, was associated with higher adult wellbeing, longer one had attended school, one's wellbeing. Because few people remain programs all their precollege years, here we ask if there are more optimal ages, terms of an association long-term attend (sensitive periods), ages transition conventional points). Using factor scores derived responses N = 1,907 adults ( M age 37, range 18–81 years) on standard measures analyzed whether wellbeing during specific spans (3 6, 6 9, etc.). Although attending every period through 12 predicted (compared schools), strongest effects were rather than preschool (ages 3 6), just 2 years. We next examined points schools, focusing especially transitioned at end Montessori's 3-year classroom cycles 12) or middle those 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11).

Chronic low-grade inflammation is increasingly proving to be one of the main culprits for onset numerous pathologies. Until recently, try combat this insidious enemy, we mainly resorted anti-inflammatory diets, but current scientific evidence seems support hypothesis that maximum impact on health could obtained above all by following an lifestyle. Nutrition alone, however important, has proven insufficient guarantee physiological homeostasis, result evolution lasted hundreds thousands years and occurred in symbiosis with ecosystems. Our conditions, psychosocial relationships emotions connected them, together environment, are elements capable interacting each other, decisively influencing inflammatory process. The Healthy Habits approach interprets makes thought concrete, and, integrated interdisciplinary approach, traces a viable route.
