In conclusion, the longevity-associated genotype of FLT1 may confer increased lifespan by protecting against mortality risk posed by hypertension. We suggest that FLT1 expression in individuals with longevity genotype boosts vascular endothelial resilience mechanisms to counteract hypertension-related stress in vital organs and tissues.
Resistance Exercise Slows the Onset of Pathology in a Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease

With the caveat that mouse models of Alzheimer's disease are quite artificial, as aged wild-type mice do not suffer from any condition resembling Alzheimer's, and the models are thus built upon assumptions about which processes are important to the progression of the condition, researchers here show that resistance exercise slows the pathology and loss of cognitive function in one such model. Resistance exercise is well demonstrated to improve metabolism, immune function, and reduce mortality in both older animals and humans. It would not be too surprising to find that sedentary individuals are performing more poorly in the onset of dementia in addition to other aspects of degenerative aging.
Physical exercise has beneficial effects by providing neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory responses to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Most studies, however, have been conducted with aerobic exercise, and few h...
