GBC 2024: Role of regulation for a changing biotech industry

Sep. 4, 2024
By Marian (YoonJee) Chu
Technological breakthroughs are changing the biopharmaceutical landscape and forcing regulators to think on their feet and facilitate (not impede) innovation, experts said at the Global Bio Conference (GBC) 2024. “Regulatory speed and agility are necessary amid emergencies to cater to unmet medical needs,” Choong May Ling, CEO of Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority, told audience members in Seoul, South Korea.

ARDD 2024: Age without disease, exercise muscles and win $111M

Sep. 3, 2024
By Mar de Miguel
Aging is part of the life cycle and, although the effects are not manifest until after adulthood, it actually occurs from birth. The concept of senescence has traditionally been associated with aging. However, an embryo has senescent cells. In that case, what is aging, how can it be measured, and from what point in the life cycle?

ARDD 2024: Back to the future in the times of aging research

Aug. 29, 2024
By Mar de Miguel
Since the publication of The Hallmarks of Aging in 2013, aging research has exploded. The field now has more than 300,000 articles on the biological signals of the effect of time on the body. What would Marty McFly, the legendary character from the Back to the Future saga who traveled with his DeLorean time machine from the ‘80s to the ‘50s, think if he visited 2024 and saw laboratories experimenting with techniques to turn back the biological clocks of cells or increase the lifespan of rejuvenated mice?

Discovery of new age-related epithelial cells sheds light on aging in the thymus

Aug. 23, 2024
By Tamra Sami
Researchers at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI) in Melbourne have discovered new cells that drive the aging process in the thymus that could unlock a way to restore function and prevent immunity from waning as we age. The thymus is the first organ in the body to shrink as people age. As this happens, the T-cell growth areas in the thymus are replaced with fatty tissue, diminishing T-cell production and contributing to a weakened immune system.

Presenilin mutations kill neurons, no amyloid-β required

Aug. 23, 2024
By Mar de Miguel
Scientists at Harvard Medical School have shown that in mice lacking amyloid beta (Aβ), the fundamental hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), neurons died from the effect of the most harmful mutation of this neurodegenerative disease. They showed that presenilin (PS) could be behind the origin of the disease without the need for Aβ. They maintain that it is time to update theories and redirect efforts.

Jellyfish genes rejuvenate intestinal stem cells in fruit flies

Aug. 13, 2024
By Tamra Sami
Researchers in Japan were able to transfer genes from jellyfish into common fruit flies and discovered that the transferred gene suppressed an age-related intestinal issue in the flies. The findings suggest that studying genes specific to animals with high regenerative capability like jellyfish may uncover new mechanisms for rejuvenating stem cell function and extending the healthy lifespan of unrelated organisms.

Alterations in transfer RNA methylation induce senescence and aging

Aug. 6, 2024
An abnormal epigenetic modification of RNA could be related to senescence and aging disorders, pointing towards the enzyme methyltransferase-like 1 (METTL1) as a potential therapeutic target.
