In one study, researchers isolated an anti-aging molecule from the blood of young mice, which extended the lifespan of older mice by 22.7% and reduced age-related decline.
 In a second study, they found four mutations in naked mole-rats' DNA repair enzyme (cGAS) that enhance genome stability. When inserted into fruit flies, it created "superflies" with extended vitality and resistance to aging.

As per a new study, the food you are consuming may have been badly affecting the ability of the body to fight cancer cells present in the colon. The overconsumption of a certain kind of omega-6 fatty acids, which is most probably becoming a part of the diet because of ultra-processed foods, is most likely hindering tumour-fighting and anti-inflammatory properties of essential fatty acid omega-3.

Omega-6 fatty acid decreasing ability to fight against cancer cells, warns study

In new research, experts have suggested that the cells present inside the cheek of a person may be able to predict accurately how much they face the risk of death in the year ahead.

This 'biological ageing' test can tell if you are going to die in one year. Here's how it works

Scientists have discovered new multicellular life forms which emerge from the cells of a dead organism and stay in a "third state" which is beyond the states of life and death.

This organism is not living or dead but is in a 'third state'. Here's what it means

People who have a good height remain at greater risk of developing cancer, as per a new study. The World Cancer Research Fund stated that there is evidence that hints at taller people having more chance of getting cancer like the pancreas, ovary, prostate, kidney, skin (melanoma), breast (pre- and post-menopausal), large bowel and uterus (endometrium).

Tall people have a higher chance of getting cancer. Study explains why

The scientists for the first time created 3D brain models with the use of cells from multiple people. The researchers have made these new hybrid creations, which are called "chimeroids".

Scientists for the first time use cells of multiple people to create 'minibrains'

Ants, despite their tiny size, possess an impressive olfactory system equipped with around 400 smell receptors. This extensive array of receptors is key to their ability to communicate through pheromones in large societies.

Scientists have identified a novel method to eliminate cancer cells by using aminocyanine molecules. These molecules, commonly used as synthetic dyes in bioimaging, show a remarkable capability to break apart cancer cell membranes when stimulated by near-infrared light, according to ScienceAlert.

Scientists find new method which can destroy 99% of cancer cells, eliminate need for invasive surgeries

In new research, scientists have found a way to reverse the premature ageing of the brain accelerated by COVID-19 infection, by killing 'zombie' cells. A team of researchers from the University of Queensland in Australia used lab-grown mini-brains, made with the help of human stem cells, to investigate how variants of SARS-CoV-2 affect brain tissues.

Scientists say killing 'zombie' cells can reverse brain ageing caused by Covid

In a first, scientists discovered new information about a key process which is involved in the early phases of programmed cell death also known as apoptosis which also stops cancer from spreading.

Scientists find key process in cell death that stops progression of cancer

One of the most frustrating things about being human is perhaps not growing old, but the apparent physical changes age brings with it. The bones get weaker, skin gets saggier, eye sight deteriorates, and memory may be impaired over time.

Scientists successfully delay ageing in cells; to be tried on humans soon
