Thymoquinone Inhibits Renal Cell Cancer Metastasis Through AMPK/mTOR-Mediated Autophagy

Key Findings Primary Discovery: Thymoquinone (TQ), extracted from Nigella sativa seeds, effectively inhibits renal cell carcinoma (RCC) metastasis by inducing autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway. Mechanism of Action: TQ activates AMPK phosphorylation while decreasing mTOR phosphorylation, leading to autophagy induction that subsequently inhibits cancer cell migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Experimental Results Cell […]

Spermidine Intake Reduces Mortality Risk by 24% in 20-Year Human Study: Dietary Polyamine Shows Anti-Aging Effects Equivalent to Being 5.7 Years Younger

Main Findings This prospective study provides the first evidence that higher dietary spermidine intake significantly reduces all-cause mortality in humans. The research demonstrates a strong dose-response relationship, with participants in the highest tertile of spermidine consumption showing mortality risks equivalent to being 5.7 years younger.

SGLTi as a Geroprotective Agent: Comprehensive Review of Clinical Benefits and Mechanisms

TL;DR: SGLTi, originally developed for type 2 diabetes, shows promise as a geroprotective agent that may slow aging, prevent age-related diseases, and improve life expectancy. Its mechanisms of action include promoting autophagy, restoring mitochondrial health, reducing oxidative stress, and decreasing inflammation. Large clinical studies demonstrate reduced risks for many common age-related conditions and improved overall
