Basic creep of cement paste at early age - the role of cement hydration

In this work, the uniaxial creep in compression during the first days of hydration is studied experimentally on cement pastes with w/c of 0.50. to order to assess the effect of the evolving microstructure on creep, the so-called equivalent systems are empl ...

Cross-species functional modules link proteostasis to human normal aging

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Andrea Komljenovic

The evolutionarily conserved nature of the few well-known anti-aging interventions that affect lifespan, such as caloric restriction, suggests that aging-related research in model organisms is directly relevant to human aging. Since human lifespan is a com ...

Protocol for the PreventIT feasibility randomised controlled trial of a lifestyle-integrated exercise intervention in young older adults

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu

Introduction The European population is rapidly ageing. In order to handle substantial future challenges in the healthcare system, we need to shift focus from treatment towards health promotion. The PreventIT project has adapted the Lifestyle-integrated Ex ...

Targeting mitochondrial bioenergetics and NAD+ metabolism during sarcopenia and regeneration of skeletal muscle

Tanja Sonntag

The progressive decline of muscle mass and function called sarcopenia is a multi-factorial process associated to frailty, disability, and low quality of life in the elderly. The co-factor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) becomes a limiting factor i ...

Aging Disrupts Muscle Stem Cell Function by Impairing Matricellular WISP1 Secretion from Fibro-Adipogenic Progenitors

Patrick Descombes, Sylviane Métairon, Sonia Karaz, Omid Mashinchian, Guillaume Jacot, Laura Lukjanenko, Federico Sizzano, Sara Ancel

Research on age-related regenerative failure of skeletal muscle has extensively focused on the phenotypes of muscle stem cells (MuSCs). In contrast, the impact of aging on regulatory cells in the MuSC niche remains largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate ...

Evolution of longevity improves immunity in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre

Much has been learned about the genetics of aging from studies in model organisms, but still little is known about naturally occurring alleles that contribute to variation in longevity. For example, analysis of mutants and transgenes has identified insulin ...

Systems Phytohormone Responses to Mitochondrial Proteotoxic Stress

Johan Auwerx, Xu Wang

Mitochondrial function is controlled by two separate genomes. This feature makes mitochondria prone to proteotoxic stress when a stoichiometric imbalance occurs in the protein complexes that perform oxidative phosphorylation, which consist of both nucleara ...

Predicting the Success of Online Petitions Leveraging Multidimensional Time-Series

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Julia Proskurnia, Carlos Castillo

Applying classical time-series analysis techniques to online content is challenging, as web data tends to have data quality issues and is often incomplete, noisy, or poorly aligned. In this paper, we tackle the problem of predicting the evolution of a time ...

Aging and sarcopenia associate with specific interactions between gut microbes, serum biomarkers and host physiology in rats

Sonia Karaz, Anirikh Chakrabarti, Mojgan Masoodi, Alice Pannerec, Jay Siddharth

The microbiome has been demonstrated to play an integral role in the maintenance of many aspects of health that are also associated with aging. In order to identify areas of potential exploration and intervention, we simultaneously characterized age-relate ...
