Researchers in Japan have found that human aging may be able to be delayed or even reversed, at least at the most basic level of human cell lines. In the process, the scientists from the University of Tsukuba also found that regulation of two genes is related to how we age.

She lived to 115, but a study of Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper's blood hints at factors limiting lifespan

Scientists have discovered a gene which increases risk of having prostate cancer, in an advancement for understanding and diagnosing the disease. Research by the Institute of Cancer Research has shown that a third of all men with advanced prostate cancer possess faulted DNA repair- which they are born with in their genes.

Transhumanism: A primer

Human reproduction is about to undergo a radical shift. Embryo selection, in connection with in-vitro fertilization (IVF), will help our species eliminate many genetic diseases, extend healthy lifespans, and enhance people’s overall well-being. Within 20 years, I predict that it will supplant sex as the way large numbers of us conceive of our children. Bu

On le savait: la grenade est un véritable allié pour notre santé, connu pour ses vertus antivieillissantes. Jusqu'à présent, on pensait que son pouvoir résidait dans son taux élevé d'antioxydants, mais cela ne pouvait expliquer qu'en partie son action.

Are pomegranates really the superfood we've been led to believe will counteract the aging process? Up to now, scientific proof has been fairly weak. And some controversial marketing tactics have led to skepticism as well

Cancer is a group of more than 100 different diseases. All are driven by cells and genes that escape the normal process of division and begin their own plan to replicate in the body. Advances in genetics and molecular biolog

The way we age might be determined long before the aging process starts and the first signs appear. Scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC), in partnership with groups at th

While immune therapy has proven effective in treating certain types of cancer, especially lung cancer and melanoma, tumors of the pancreas remain among the most difficult to treat and, so far, are impervious to immune-base
