Movement And Sleep Patterns In Midlife Can Help Predict Lifespan, Finds Study

A recent study from Stanford University reveals that daily behaviours like movement and sleep in midlife can forecast lifespan in vertebrates. Researchers tracked African turquoise killifish throughout their lives, finding early divergences in activity and rest patterns strongly predict longevity. The study was led by Wu Tsai Neuro postdoctoral scholars Claire Bedbrook and Ravi Nath…

Study Discovers Stress-Reducing Role Of Natural Molecule In Body, May Help With Metabolic Disorders

New Delhi: Researchers have found that a naturally occurring molecule in the body plays a stress-reducing role, a discovery which they said could lead to new drugs and treatment for metabolic disorders and ageing. Researchers from The University of Queensland looked at microRNAs, which bind to genes and prevent them from being over-activated. The study published in…
