Blackcurrant Supplementation and Habitual Physical Activity Enhance Functional Capacity and Quality of Life in Previously Sedentary Older Women
CONCLUSION: Blackcurrant supplementation, combined with habitual activity, may enhance functional capacity and quality of life in older women, offering a potential strategy to maintain independence. However, future studies should address longer durations to validate these findings.PMID:38317475 | DOI:10.2174/0118746098261936231223164430 (Source: Current Aging Science)

A Novel Mutation (Lys31Arg) in the DMD Gene Impacts on Neuromuscular Dysfunctions found by Whole Exome Sequencing and In Silico Analyses in an Iranian Family
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, our findings revealed no pathogenic effect of the new mutation (K31R) of the DMD gene in an Iranian 25-year-old woman. Because of the DMD importance in preclinical diagnosis, these data may shed a light on the diagnosis of this mutation in future pregnancies.PMID:38265407 | DOI:10.2174/0118746098280408240112112414 (Source: Current Aging Science)

Nicotinamide Mononucleotide in the Context of Myocardiocyte Longevity
Curr Aging Sci. 2023 Dec 22. doi: 10.2174/0118746098266041231212105020. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCellular and subcellular metabolic activities are crucial processes involved in the regulation of intracellular homeostasis, including cellular and subcellular signaling pathways. Dysregulation of intracellular regulation mechanisms is catastrophic and cumulates into cell death. To overcome the issue of dysregulation of intracellular regulation mechanisms, the preservation of subcellular and extracellular components is essential to maintain healthy cells with increased longevity. Several physiopathological changes occur du...
