Produktbeschreibung
"Forever Young: Targeting Cellular Senescence for Healthspan and Lifespan Extension" is a book written by M. Morrisons, an expert in the field of aging and cellular biology. The book offers a comprehensive overview of the latest research on cellular senescence and its impact on healthspan and lifespan. The book begins by introducing the concept of cellular senescence, which refers to the phenomenon of cells entering a state of irreversible growth arrest due to various stressors, such as DNA damage and inflammation. The author discusses how cellular senescence plays a role in aging and age-related diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegeneration. The next section of the book explores the mechanisms underlying cellular senescence, including the role of telomeres, DNA damage response pathways, and cellular metabolism. The author also discusses the various signaling pathways that regulate senescence, such as the mTOR and AMPK pathways, and how they can be targeted for therapeutic purposes. The book then delves into the different approaches being developed to target cellular senescence for healthspan and lifespan extension. These include senolytics, which are drugs that selectively eliminate senescent cells, as well as interventions that modulate metabolism, such as caloric restriction and intermittent fasting. The final section of the book discusses the potential implications of targeting cellular senescence for society as a whole, including the economic and ethical considerations. The author also emphasizes the importance of adopting a holistic approach to aging, which considers not only the biological aspects but also the social and psychological factors that contribute to healthy aging. Overall, "Forever Young: Targeting Cellular Senescence for Healthspan and Lifespan Extension" offers a comprehensive and insightful overview of the latest research on aging and cellular senescence. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the underlying mechanisms of aging and the potential avenues for intervention to promote healthy aging.
