Social Connections, Leukocyte Telomere Length, and All-Cause Mortality in Older Adults From Costa Rica: The Costa Rican Longevity and Healthy Aging Study (CRELES)
OBJECTIVES: To examine the association of social connections with blood leukocyte telomere length (LTL) and all-cause mortality in older Costa Ricans.
Salidroside Improves Oocyte Competence of Reproductively Old Mice by Enhancing Mitophagy
The decline of oocyte quality with advanced maternal age has a detrimental effect on female fertility. However, there is limited knowledge of therapeutic options and their mechanisms to improve oocyte quality in reproductively older women. In this study, we demonstrated that supplementation of salidroside improves the oocyte quality of reproductively old mice. Salidroside improved the maturation, fertilization, and developmental competence of oocytes from reproductively old mice by maintaining...
Cellular Senescence Contributes to the Dysfunction of Tight Junctions in Submandibular Glands of Aging Mice
The current mechanism by which aging reduces salivary secretion is unknown. This study investigates the mechanism of aging-related submandibular (SMG) dysfunction and evaluates the therapeutic potential of dental pulp stem cell-derived exosomes (DPSC-exos). We found that the stimulated salivary flow rate was significantly reduced in naturally aging and D-galactose-induced aging mice (D-gal mice) compared to control mice. Acinar atrophy and periductal fibrosis in SMGs and parotid glands (PGs)...
