The human Werner Syndrome as a model system for aging
The aging process is one of the most challenging biological pathways to understand. Applications of model systems for aging have contributed...

Aging and mitochondrial dysfunction in the filamentous fungus Podospora anserina
In the filamentous fungus Podospora anserina, mitochondria play a paramount role in life span control and aging. During aging, these organelles...
-
Aging and the programmed death phenomena
Biochemical mechanisms of the programmed death phenomena are considered at levels of unicellular organisms, mitochondria, cells, groups of cells, and...
-
Conditional senescence in prokaryotes
Bacteria are immortal in the sense that their capacity for reproduction appears limitless as long as the environment supports growth. However, this...
-
Do green plants age, and if so, how?
Time-dependent ageing-like processes in green plants are discussed and compared to gerontological changes in animals and other organisms. The...

Energy metabolism, anti-oxidant defense and aging in Caenorhabditis elegans
Food restriction and impaired gene function by mutation or RNAi treatment can extend the lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans considerably. In contrast...

Role of subcytotoxic stress in tissue ageing
Most commonly stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS) is defined as the long-term effects of subcytotoxic stress on proliferative cell types,...
-
Mammalian and bird aging, oxygen radicals, and restricted feeding
In this chapter, the relationship of aging with oxidative stress is reviewed. Endogenous tissue antioxidants do not determine aging because they...
-
Mitochondria, metabolism, and aging in yeast
Quantitative and qualitative changes in metabolism take place when the lifespan is extended in yeast either by genetic or nutritional manipulation....

Yeast as a model for ageing and apoptosis research
Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death with a crucial role in health and disease in metazoans. Recent findings demonstrate the existence of an...

Study of hydrodynamic cavitation applied for the selective removal of Escherichia coli and Daphnia sp. present in the cultivation of microalgae in agro-industrial wastewater
The presence of undesirable microorganisms in wastewater, considered a low-cost medium, can affect the production of biomass as they take nutrients...

The autophagy adaptor TRIAD3A promotes tau fibrillation by nested phase separation
Multiple neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by aberrant proteinaceous accumulations of tau. Here, we report a RING-in-between-RING-type E3...

Zeb1 mediates EMT/plasticity-associated ferroptosis sensitivity in cancer cells by regulating lipogenic enzyme expression and phospholipid composition
Therapy resistance and metastasis, the most fatal steps in cancer, are often triggered by a (partial) activation of the epithelial–mesenchymal...

Exploring the cooperation between nitrogen-fixing and non-fixing alfalfa rhizobia
Alfalfa plays a crucial role in agriculture due to its nitrogen-fixing partnership with rhizobia, resulting in nutritious forage. While the potential...

Naturalized alien flora of Uzbekistan: species richness, origin and habitats
This is the first study providing an up-to-date account of the alien flora in Uzbekistan and analyzing the relationship between the invasion status...

Screening microalgae strains for fish feed of juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and their zootechnical performance
Fishmeal, the main protein source in fish feed, may become unsustainable due to economic and environmental issues in the fishing industry. In this...

Informing the design of fish-friendly shoreline retaining walls for freshwater systems
The structural complexity of aquatic habitats is often reduced by the installation of retaining walls designed to stabilize shorelines and decrease...

Telemetry without collars: performance of fur- and ear-mounted satellite tags for evaluating the movement and behaviour of polar bears
The study of animal movement provides insights into underlying ecological processes and informs analyses of behaviour and resource use, which have...
