The age is common risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). One of the main risk factors for ageing is biological age of vessels. For early prevention of CVD there must be screening methods of vessel age assessment in patients with the anamnesis prone to CVD. Main mechanisms of vessel ageing ar...

Cellular quiescence is operationally defined as a temporary and reversible cessation of proliferation. This state encompasses a wide range of physiological situations since most cells, from microbes to cells composing complex tissues, spend most of their lives non-dividing, waiting for signals to re...

Exercise-induced release of irisin may contribute to the beneficial effects of exercise on brain health. Previous studies in healthy adults have shown ~15 % increase in short-term post-exercise irisin concentrations. However, previous research investigating the exercise-induced release of irisin in...

The human life span could be influenced by the combined effect of environment, lifestyle, and genetic factors. Twin and family studies suggest that our genes control up to 25% of the lifespan. The aging immune system undergoes age-associated changes at multiple levels, resulting in a gradual loss of...
