Aging is an inevitable physiological process characterized by progressive functional decline and degenerative alterations across organ systems. Metabolic disturbance, particularly the disruption of substance and energy metabolism, is increasingly recognized as a central hallmark of aging. Emerging evidence suggests that dysregulation of the urea cycle (UC) contributes to aging-related pathological processes, including cognitive impairment; however, its role in astrocyte-mediated brain aging...

CONCLUSIONS: In this nationally representative cohort, high psychological resilience measured before death was associated with lower symptom burden across multiple domains in the last year of life. Resilience assessment may help identify individuals at risk for distressing end-of-life experiences and inform interventions to bolster late-life resilience.

DNA damage is considered one of the major contributors to aging. DHCR24, a multifunctional enzyme located within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), is closely related to DNA damage. Our previous study showed that DHCR24 could delay vascular endothelial cells (ECs) senescence. The relationship between DHCR24 and DNA damage during ECs senescence requires further investigation. Here, we demonstrate that aging activates ATM-mediated DNA damage response (DDR) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells...
