Nir Barzilai starting a great final day @CellSymposia #CSAging on his work with centenarians & metformin met by none other than Prof.Kenyon on DAF-2 turndown to @wysscoray & VCAM1 inhibition, along with much more. Poster didn't do too bad either! @Einstein_Group@StanfordMed@NIH
#CSaging 2018 has been a great experience. So many interesting approaches to elucidating and preventing ageing. Thanks to everyone there for making it fun and educational.
.@AndersonRozalyn at #CSAging showing beautiful complex multi-omic data from primate CR. Transcription, RNA processing, translation, PTMs all affect same pathways but through different factors. Need to integrate ALL for true insight (as our cells do!). cell.com/cell-metabolism/abs…
Quality day @CellSymposia #CSAging discussing stem cells,periodic fasting,cell senescence & CD22!From @MPIAGE Bruning's work on POMC & AgRP with IR to @BuckInstitute@EricVerdin research into the NAD pathway topped off with an excellent meet the speakers dinner.Excited for day 3
Thank you Judy Campisi for an incredible 30 minute seminar on the state of the art of senescence and SASP at #CSAging! 4 keys to SASP: 2 arms, heterogeneous, dynamic, specific to inducer. Lots to learn about dynamic changes over days-weeks-months.
Another great #CSAging talk in Sitges by Valter Longo on FMD. Thought provoking aud Q about role of BHB in FMD vs other KD. Valter suggests low energy of FMD helps BHB effects. Testable hypothesis, can ID mechanisms, and important for translation of BHB-derived therapeutics.
Genes for human longevity prove elusive - says Slagboom - no real progress in ten years since ApoE found and possibly Fox03- yet genes important in some families so need to use predictive blood metabolites in large cohorts #CSaging
Jens Bruning shows that mice that see edible food trigger brain changes that start producing key proteins in the liver as if they were really eating #CSAging
@jensbruning reminds us of the importance of the brain in glucose response and AgRP neutrons in the actuate nucleus of the brain in response to food and insulin resistance #CSAging
Looking forward to presenting poster86 1:30pm today on aging macrophages & inflammation #CSAging. Only possible thru funding by @DiabetesUK@TheBHF in collaboration with @UoL_LICAMM@unileedscardio. Also speaking @bsicongress Ageing & Immune System on Friday!
Great 1st session @CellSymposia #CSAging! Linda Partridge @MPIAGE & @ucl discussing work with rapamycin & circular RNAs to the excellent talk by @darissambaya on the impact of gut microbiota in killifish,along with many more speakers,lining up what should be a terrific symposium
Poo transplants in African killfish show microbes and their metabolites can make fish live longer. Could be good news for humans who store poo samples when young @darissambaya #CSAging
At #CSaging meeting in sitges discovering the secrets of eternal life and a secret Catalan Onion focaccia with anchovies that is a threat to the Genoese
Quick shout out for my favorite human transposase, PGBD3. This old friend makes a fusion protein with ERCC6, a DNA repair chromatin remodeling gene that causes a premature aging disease. And its footprints are scattered throughout our genome. What does it do in aging? #CSAging
I love that SINEs and LINEs are back in the scientific spotlight - long live #transposons! John Sevidy now showing that the interferon response to uncontrolled LINE replication in senescent cells may be a trigger for SASP. #CSAging
