Conditional Senescence and Longevity Mechanisms in Early-Branching Metazoans: Insights from Hydra
Organismal aging is not inevitable in multicellular animals, as early-branching metazoan lineages, such as cnidarians, display negligible senescence under defined conditions, despite conserved cellular pathways. Contrasting longevity phenotypes in Hydra species reveal distinct regulatory mechanisms underlying aging. A...
