DNA Damage Theory DNA damage by UV rays Image credit: Wikipedia The DNA Damage Theory helps to understand how long we live and our health. As we age genetically our cells become more and more damaged, this can be called as cellular aging The theory shows that Our DNA can hurt inany ways, from inside our bodies and from outside. Things like environmental factors and Oxidative stress can harm our DNA . Key takeaways • DNA can be damage by environmental exposures and oxidative stress. • The DNA damage theory explain how accumulated genetic damage contribute to cellular aging and impact overall health • Understanding the mechanism of DNA damage is necessary for developing intervention to extend lifespan. • Ongoing researches are focusing on DNA damage, cellular senescence, and age related diseases. • DNA repair and reduce the effect of DNA damage, may promote healthy aging.

T_cell Image credit: Wikipedia T Cell Programming for Age Reversal: An Overview Introduction As the global population ages, researchers are increasingly focused on understanding the biological mechanisms of aging and exploring innovative strategies for age reversal. One of the promising avenues currently being investigated is T cell programming. This approach seeks to leverage the immune system’s natural capabilities to rejuvenate cellular function, enhance regeneration, and potentially reverse age-related declines in health. Understanding T Cells T cells are a type of lymphocyte that play a critical role in the adaptive immune response. They are essential for identifying and eliminating pathogens, coordinating immune responses, and maintaining immunological memory. T cell populations, particularly CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, undergo significant cha...
