Unlocking the Secrets of Aging: Researchers Discover Previously Unknown Mechanism That Drives Aging

The discovery could open the door to interventions aimed at slowing down or even reversing the aging process.

A previously unknown mechanism that drives aging has been found to be universal across a range of different animals, including humans.

A new study finds that most molecular-level changes that occur during aging are associated with gene length
Organisms balance the activity of short and long genes
Aging is accompanied by a shift in gene activity toward short genes, which are associated with accelerated aging
Researcher: “Aging is a subtle imbalance, away from equilibrium” that requires your cells to expend more effort …
