We have a long way to go before we can do more than identify and trust in the black box of stem cells
The best marker for biological age is…
The fact that progeria-affected kids have undeniable biological aging despite young epigenetic and chronological ages implies that telomerpathies that drive them are still the most robust explanation for aging globally
Telomere length variation suggest bad players in the mix
Over time, the dutiful and dysfunctional stem cells die off but others, like the Mafia capos or career politicians, become unable to kill themselves so they persist and cause problems while still lengthening their telomres.
I just turned 50…How does it feel?
How does it feel to turn 50? It is bittersweet because I don’t feel my age yet still harbor demons that cherish the hidden death agenda.
Genomic entropy drives aneuploidy
A body is a machine in turn made up of trillions of cellular machines, all exhibiting decreasing genomic integrity and stability as we age. Here are some insights which help to explain aging as the result of increasing entropy
