Geroscience: Linking Aging to Chronic Disease
Brian K. Kennedy,Shelley L. Berger,Anne Brunet,Judith Campisi,Judith Campisi,Ana Maria Cuervo,Elissa S. Epel,Claudio Franceschi,Gordon J. Lithgow,Richard I. Morimoto,Jeffrey E. Pessin,Thomas A. Rando,Thomas A. Rando,Arlan Richardson,Eric E. Schadt,Tony Wyss-Coray,Tony Wyss-Coray,Felipe Sierra +17 more
TL;DR: Mammalian aging can be delayed with genetic, dietary, and pharmacologic approaches, and it is critical to expand geroscience research directed at extending human healthspan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring biological aging in humans: A quest.
Luigi Ferrucci,Marta Gonzalez-Freire,Elisa Fabbri,Elisa Fabbri,Eleanor M. Simonsick,Toshiko Tanaka,Zenobia A. Moore,Shabnam Salimi,Felipe Sierra,Rafael de Cabo +9 more
TL;DR: Current research focuses on measuring the pace of aging to identify individuals who are “aging faster” to test and develop interventions that could prevent or delay the progression of multimorbidity and disability with aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of inflammation in age-related disease
T. Kevin Howcroft,Judith Campisi,Germaine M. Buck Louis,Martyn T. Smith,Bradley C. Wise,Tony Wyss-Coray,Alison Deckhut Augustine,Janet E. McElhaney,Ron Kohanski,Felipe Sierra +9 more
TL;DR: Recommendations to accelerate progress toward understanding the mechanistic bases of chronic disease were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in Geroscience: Impact on Healthspan and Chronic Disease
John B. Burch,Alison Deckhut Augustine,Leslie A. Frieden,Evan C. Hadley,T. Kevin Howcroft,Ron Johnson,Partap S. Khalsa,Ronald A. Kohanski,Xiao Ling Li,Francesca Macchiarini,George Niederehe,Young S. Oh,Aaron C. Pawlyk,Henry Rodriguez,Julia H. Rowland,Grace L. Shen,Felipe Sierra,Bradley C. Wise +17 more
TL;DR: With the proportion of older people among the global population being now higher than at any time in history and still expanding, maintaining health into old age (or healthspan) has become a new and urgent frontier for modern medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geroscience and the trans-NIH Geroscience Interest Group, GSIG.
Felipe Sierra,Ron Kohanski +1 more
TL;DR: The genesis of the trans-NIH group and the most salient activities that have occurred in the last 5 years are discussed, which will lead to health improvements in the older population with perhaps greater efficiency than can be achieved through the successful cure and management of diseases of aging.
