Evidence date ·How treatment-altered support cells and collagen may reshape one another
Review or Meta-AnalysisTracked over timeA review explains how fibroblasts may reshape collagen after head and neck cancer therapy, why senescence markers can mislead, and where treatments might act.

Evidence date ·How treatment-altered support cells influenced prostate and ovarian cancer cells
Peer-Reviewed PaperTracked over timeIn cell cultures, signals from chemotherapy-treated support cells increased cancer-cell movement. Clearing those support cells reduced the effect.

Evidence date ·Why people the same age can have different COVID-19 outcomes
Peer-Reviewed PaperA UK Biobank study linked a biomarker-based ageing score to severe COVID-19 after accounting for age, but did not establish a clinical prediction tool.

Evidence date ·How tiny drug carriers could connect cell aging research with Alzheimer’s care
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review explains how nanoparticle carriers move anti-aging drugs toward the brain and separates brain exposure, pathology, and memory evidence.
-
Evidence date ·How aging-related cell changes may connect depression to wider health risks
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review links depression with aging-related biology, explains a possible resilience pathway, and asks what future treatments would need to prove.
-
Evidence date ·How astrocytes, the brain’s support cells, might help protect neurons in Alzheimer’s
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review links astrocyte control of glutamate and amyloid handling to possible Alzheimer’s treatments, while cell and mouse results remain unproven in patients.
-
Evidence date ·How oxidative stress could turn retinal support cells into treatment targets
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review traces how oxidative stress may push retinal support cells into senescence, while human and animal evidence leaves treatment benefits unproven.
-
Evidence date ·How cells that stop dividing may stiffen the heart’s aortic valve
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review links impaired valve repair to calcification and explores senescent-cell removal as a possible treatment, with benefits in patients still unproven.

Evidence date ·Why one frontal brain region matters for mood during perimenopause
Peer-Reviewed PaperA 2022 scan study compared GABA+ and glutamate in 38 healthy women, finding no clear difference in one frontal region and no explanation for depression risk.

Evidence date ·Aging immune cells change as they help clear senescent cells elsewhere
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review separates immune remodeling from cellular senescence, then compares what green tea, probiotic and omega-3 studies actually measured.
