Effects of chronic dietary nitrate supplementation on longevity, vascular function and cancer incidence in rats
(2021-12-01)
Rationale: Dietary nitrate and nitrite have a notoriously bad reputation because of their proposed association with disease, in particular cancer. However, more recent lines of research have challenged this dogma suggesting ...
Aging and calorie restriction modulate yeast redox state, oxidized protein removal, and the ubiquitin-proteasome system
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2011)
The ubiquitin-proteasome system governs the half-life of most cellular proteins. Calorie restriction (CR) extends the maximum life span of a variety of species and prevents oxidized protein accumulation. We studied the ...
Brain mitochondrial dysfunction in aging
(John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2008-04)
Aging of mammalian brain is associated with a continuous decrease of the capacity to produce ATP by oxidative phosphorylation. The impairment of mitochondrial function is mainly due to diminished electron transfer by ...
Transformations of the rememberer: Development trajectories and the recall of historical events
(FUNDACION INFANCIA APRENDIZAJE, 2012)
The goal of this paper is to present empirical evidence supporting the transformation of recall abilities along the life cycle, specifically those tied to socio-culturally relevant historical events. Two groups, 42 old ...

Male and female gonadal ageing: its impact on health span and life span
(Elsevier Ireland, 2021-07)
Ageing is linked to changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis and a progressive decline in gonadal function. While women become infertile when they enter menopause, fertility decline in ageing men does not necessarily ...
Patterns of sandy-beach macrofauna production
(Cambridge, 2013-11)
Using data available from the literature, patterns of biomass, production and productivity of sandy-beach macrofauna populations were examined, considering environmental (temperature, exposure, grain size and beach slope) ...
