WAVES, an algorithm designed to extract menstrual-cycle metrics from physiological signals such as basal body temperature, which oscillates with sex hormones, shows how different parameters change with age and helps determine whether each person maintains a stable individual pattern or personal footprint. A study based on data from 5,674 cycles from 753 women demonstrates through this tool that age is associated with higher temperatures, shorter cycles, and greater irregularity. In addition, several metrics show within-person stability, suggesting they could serve as personalized health markers.

Armed with a fully subscribed $80 million series D round, Life Biosciences Inc. is making progress with its lead candidate, ER-100, which is in phase I trials testing its theory on reversing the biological effects of aging via partial epigenetic reprogramming.

Werner syndrome results from biallelic mutations in the WRN gene on chromosome 8, leading to accelerated aging symptoms. Researchers at Sumitomo Pharma Co. Ltd. have reported the development and characterization of WRN-108, a splice-switching antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) designed to induce exon 27 skipping in WRN transcripts carrying the c.3139-1G>C mutation.
