Background: Aging is associated with progressive metabolic and physiological changes that influence health span in humans and may similarly impact dogs. This study aimed to characterize in the gut microbiota and their associations with host metabolism. Client-owned young adult (2-5 years, > 20 kg, n...
Zebrafish exposed to 2 waterborne copper concentrations (8 & 15 ug/L) in softwater for 21 days. Fish were terminally sampled and livers extracted for RNA extraction and hybridization to micorarrays
Given the absence of written records, the main source of information available to analyze gender inequalities in early complex societies is the human body itself. And yet, for decades, archaeologists have struggled with the identification of the sex of poorly preserved human remains. Here we present...
Oxidative stress plays a key role in aging and related diseases, including neurodegeneration, cancer, and organ failure. Copper (Cu), a redox-active metal ion, generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), and its dysregulation contributes to aging. Here, we develop activity-based imaging probes for the ...
Aging of biological systems is controlled by various processes which have a potential impact on gene expression. Here we report a genome-wide transcriptome analysis of the fungal aging model Podospora anserina. Total RNA of three individuals of defined age were pooled and analyzed by SuperSAGE (seri...
