“The budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is an excellent model for studying mechanisms governing aging, with many genetic and biochemical pathways highly conserved.” Their findings show that ...

A new research paper was published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on April 3, 2026, titled "Modeling premature aging in yeast via the expression of Progerin." The study was led by first author Zachery R.

The pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), a leading cause of dementia, remains unclear. One notable limitation of current cellular models is that they lack an aging in vitro environment. Progerin ...
