signatures<br />
‘indicators<br />
of ageing’<br />
In the new study, the researchers have identified their 12<br />
indicators of ageing: molecular signatures which mark<br />
the progress of a particular process – and on which it<br />
was possible to act to prolong life.<br />
In addition, they highlight four primary causes of<br />
ageing: genomic instability, shortening of telomeres,<br />
epigenetic alterations, and imbalance between protein<br />
synthesis and degradation.<br />
These are strongly inter-connected processes and<br />
ageing results from their joint action – potentially<br />
providing multiple ways to act on the physiologic<br />
process of ageing.<br />
And currently, diet is the most accessible form of<br />
intervention.<br />
Dietary interventions are related to a key indicator<br />
of ageing: the dysregulation of the ‘nutrient sensing<br />
mechanism’ – the network of molecular signals that alert<br />
all mammals that food is available.<br />
The researchers noted: ‘Nutrient sensors are<br />
therapeutic targets for potential anti-longevity drugs,<br />
but health benefits and lifespan extension could also be<br />
achieved through dietary interventions.<br />
‘However the results obtained in this line in our<br />
species are still unclear; clinical trials based on dietary<br />
restrictions in humans become complicated due to poor<br />
compliance, although they suggest positive effects on<br />
immunity and inflammation.’<br />
