thus validating human telomerase reverse transcriptase as an important target for the development of anti-neoplastic therapies. To determine whether disruption of hTERT catalytic function would ...

WSU researchers have created HuT mice with human-like short telomeres, allowing for groundbreaking studies on aging, cancer, and longevity. This innovation could lead to new treatments that protect ...

Globally, scientists are working to unlock the secrets of extending human lifespan at the cellular level, where aging occurs ...

Aging is an inevitable progressive decline in physiological organ function that increases the chance of disease and death. The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in the regulation of ...

Genomic instability, as defined, includes genetic changes that include mutations, chromosomal rearrangements, and telomerase function (1). The genomic instability in transforming epithelial cells into ...

Led by WSU College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Professor Jiyue Zhu, the research team has developed mice that have human-like short telomeres, enabling the study of cellular aging as it ...

Researchers have developed HuT mice, a genetically engineered model with human-like telomeres, enabling scientists to study ...

Executive function describes a set of cognitive processes and mental skills that help an individual plan, monitor, and successfully execute their goals. The “executive functions,” as they’re ...

After years of hard work, scientists have succeeded in creating genetically-engineered mice that could help accelerate ...

Globally, scientists are working to unlock the secrets of extending human lifespan at the cellular level, where aging occurs gradually due to the shortening of telomeres–the protective caps at the ...
