Research using Caenorhabditis elegans has become instrumental in uncovering the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying ageing and stress resistance. This diminutive nematode offers a genetically ...

The hypertension drug rilmenidine has been found to slow aging in worms – an effect that, if it translates to humans, could ...

Cornell researchers recently discovered a novel metabolite — a byproduct of life-sustaining chemical processes called metabolism — that is connected to the lifespan of a species of roundworm. When ...

The lifespan of a small roundworm that has been used as a key model organism in ageing research is limited by how it self-sacrifices to feed its young, finds a new study led by UCL researchers. C.

A new research paper was published in Aging (listed as "Aging (Albany NY)" by MEDLINE/PubMed and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 1, entitled, "The innate immune signaling component FBXC ...

"The RO + MI + SC-produced tapuy lees extract significantly improved the lifespan, motility, and reproductive health of Caenorhabditis elegans, while boosting superoxide dismutase activity in vivo. " ...

A Chinese fruit, jujube, has been shown to prolong the lifespans of a type of nematode known as Caenorhabditis elegans, or C. elegans, according to new research. Jujube is known for its health ...

The hypertension drug rilmenidine has been shown to slow down aging in worms, an effect that in humans could hypothetically help us live longer and keep us healthier in our latter years. Previous ...
