A research perspective published July 8, 2025 in Aging (Aging-US) examined how regular exercise and physical activity might slow or even reverse epigenetic aging. Led by Takuji Kawamura at Tohoku ...

A new research perspective was published in Aging (Aging-US) on July 8, 2025, titled "Exercise as a geroprotector: focusing on epigenetic aging." In this perspective, led by Takuji Kawamura from ...

Twins can provide researchers with a unique opportunity to investigate how a trait might be influenced by genetics or by the environment, because identical twins carry the same genome at birth. For ...

Consistent exercise can change not just waistlines but the very molecules in the human body that influence how genes behave, a new study of twins indicates. The Washington State University study, ...

Breshna sits on a hospital bed with her four-month-old twins Subhania and Subhan in the malnutrition ward at a hospital run by Doctors Without Borders (MSF), in ...

Aging is inevitable, but how fast your cells age isn't set in stone. On a molecular level, biological age is measured using something called the epigenetic clock, which isn't tied to chronological age ...

The Nature Index 2024 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Epigenetics refers to how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Unlike genetic changes or ...

Biological age tests reveal what slows or hastens aging – but they’re useful only for researchers, not consumers.

Imagine receiving a test result that tells you your body is biologically five years older than your chronological age. You ...

“Collectively, these findings suggest that increased leisure-time physical activity and reduced sedentary behavior may have beneficial effects on epigenetic aging” “Collectively, these findings ...
