The Role of Iron Accumulation in Fibrosis and Senescence

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Nature.com

Iron accumulation has been found to play a causative role in fibrogenesis, senescence, and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Fibrogenic injuries can lead to progressive iron accumulation in tissues, which promotes the secretion of pro-fibrotic cytokines, recruitment of immune cells, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and activation of profibrogenic pathways. Iron accumulation also induces cellular senescence, characterized by the upregulation of senescence markers and DNA damage. These findings suggest that targeting iron accumulation may be a potential therapeutic strategy for fibrotic diseases.

Expert recommends anti-inflammatory foods for longevity boost.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Express

Nutritionist Daniel Herman recommends eating leafy greens, berries, nuts, whole grains, and fatty fish to reduce chronic inflammation, protect against cellular damage, and boost longevity. These foods are rich in antioxidants, fiber, vitamins, and minerals that help to lower inflammation, improve digestion, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer's. Eating a handful of nuts a day, consuming whole grain foods, and adding fatty fish to your diet can provide the body with important nutrients and antioxidants that promote healthy aging.
