Japanese scientists may have unraveled the secret of aging resistance in naked mole-rats
An infographic depicting a unique “natural senolytic” or natural senescent cell removal mechanism identified by Japanese researchers, in naked mole-rats, the longest-lived rodent species. They proposed a species-specific mechanism involving activation of INK4a-RB-signaling and serotonin metabolism, which increases intracellular oxidative damage, and causes subsequent death of…
