摘要:
The invention provides methods of developing tissue-specific biomarkers of aging, sets of robust biomarkers identified by those methods, and uses of the biomarkers to identify nutrients and other functional ingredients or agents having anti-aging properties.
摘要:
Markers of caloric restriction (CR) can be identified in a selected tissue by exposing an animal to CR conditions and selecting one or more genes differentially expressed in response to CR conditions in multiple subject groups. A candidate compound can be screened for likely ability to mimic the effects of CR when administered to an animal by comparing the tissue levels of expression products of the genes in animals treated with the candidate compound to those of animals subjected to CR.
摘要:
An oral formulation as described herein can comprise pomegranate extract, panax ginseng extract, and c. sinensis, where each is present in an amount effective to counteract and/or prevent effects of aging in a subject when administered to the subject. The effects of aging can include age-related changes in gene expression.

摘要:
An oral formulation includes a plurality of agents that promote cellular detoxification. Agents can be included that modulate expression of Nrf2-associated genes upon ingestion of the oral formulation by a subject, wherein the Nrf2-associated genes include at least one gene encoding intrinsic antioxidants, and at least one gene encoding cellular detoxifiers. In addition, at least one of the plurality of agents attenuates inflammation.
