Except for early response genes, Myc universally upregulates gene expression. Furthermore, the upregulation is nonlinear. Genes whose expression is already significantly upregulated in the absence of Myc are strongly boosted in the presence of Myc, whereas genes whose expression is low in the absence Myc get only a small boost when Myc is present.[14] InactivationContinue reading “4 longevity genes: Myc, Oct 3/4 , Sox 2 and Klf4”

Researches reverse signs of aging
Summary: Researchers have developed a new technique that is able to rejuvenate organs in animals and extend their life span. Source: Salk Institute. New technique rejuvenated organs and helped animals live longer. Graying hair, crow’s feet, an injury that’s taking longer to heal than when we were 20—faced with the unmistakable signs of aging, mostContinue reading “Researches reverse signs of aging”
Mapping the Brain’s Aging Connections
Summary: Researchers report the brain connections that are key to cognition and complex thinking skills are most effected as we age. Source: University of Edinburgh. Impact of ageing on brain connections mapped in major scan study. Brain connections that play a key role in complex thinking skills show the poorest health with advancing age, newContinue reading “Mapping the Brain’s Aging Connections”
Anti-aging supplements: Vitamins B, C and D, folic acid, green tea extract, cod liver oil
Summary: According to researchers, a complex dietary supplement has shows anti-aging properties that appear to prevent, and even reverse brain cell loss. Source: McMaster University. A dietary supplement containing a blend of thirty vitamins and minerals, all natural ingredients widely available in health food stores, has shown remarkable anti-aging properties that can prevent and evenContinue reading “Anti-aging supplements: Vitamins B, C and D, folic acid, green tea extract, cod liver oil”
20 grams of nuts each day linked to reduced risk for cancer and other diseases
A large analysis of current research shows that people who eat at least 20g of nuts a day have a lower risk of heart disease, cancer and other diseases. The analysis of all current studies on nut consumption and disease risk has revealed that 20g a day – equivalent to a handful – canContinue reading “20 grams of nuts each day linked to reduced risk for cancer and other diseases”
Nutrigenomics, anti-aging and obesity
Nutrigenomics is a branch of nutritional genomics and is the study of the effects of foods and food constituents on gene expression.[1] This means that nutrigenomics is research focusing on identifying and understanding molecular-level interaction between nutrients and other dietary bioactiveswith the genome. Nutrigenomics has also been described by the influence of genetic variation onContinue reading “Nutrigenomics, anti-aging and obesity”
My aunt had goat’s milk instead of breast milk during the war
My aunt Monang had goat’s milk instead of breast milk during the Japanese war in the Philippines. Now she is 70 yrs old and still looking healthy. She is skinny looking but has no health issues. She gets plenty of nature walks in the sun and loves veggies and fish. Children can benefit from goat’sContinue reading “My aunt had goat’s milk instead of breast milk during the war”

Energy and Anatomy = Cancer and aging
Two types of people Tightly coupled: Only needs to eat less to arrive at required energy level Loosely coupled: Needs to eat more to arrive at required energy level Sun energy and glucose for energy production Nucleus is energy limited Mitochondrial DNA crosstalk: 10% changes in mtDNA has a greater effect in epigenetic expression Continue reading “Energy and Anatomy = Cancer and aging”

TP53 gene affects tumor suppression
Peto’s Paradox is the observation, due to Richard Peto, that at the species level, the incidence of cancer does not appear to correlate with the number of cells in an organism.[215] For example, the incidence of cancer in humans is much higher than the incidence of cancer in whales.[216] This is despite the fact thatContinue reading “TP53 gene affects tumor suppression”
Have you lowered your cholesterol through lifestyle changes?
I chew my food more, added probiotics and some supplements (CQ10, folic+Vit B complex, Calcium+Magnesium+Zinc) and always avoided sugar (but still eats 3 bites of chocolates every other day. I breath more, watch my body for any signs of distress (skin issues, pains, lack of sleep, mouth health, sleep quality, urine color, others). I haveContinue reading “Have you lowered your cholesterol through lifestyle changes?”
Tumor genes
Gene expression profiling is a technique used in molecular biology to query the expression of thousands of genes simultaneously. While almost all cells in an organism contain the entire genome of the organism, only a small subset of those genes is expressed as messenger RNA (mRNA) at any given time, and their relative expression canContinue reading “Tumor genes”
