Aging in Spaceflight, Oxidative Stress, and Microbiome Dysbiosis: A Comprehensive Review

Examination of evidence surrounding mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and gut microbiome dysbiosis across humans, mice, and fruit flies under spaceflight and corresponding terrestrial control conditions finds that biomarker genes most associated with mutation accumulation and antagonistic pleiotropy appear t...

Understanding Aging Genes and Pathways: Insight from Yeast

Even though there is a general agreement on the heritability of longevity in humans, the complex network of genetic and non-genetic factors affecting our lifespan is far from being fully elucidated. In this context, simple model organisms can still contribute to understanding the fundamental mechanisms involved in long...

The OMM12 mice: a decade of dissecting host-microbiome interactions

Abstract Humans and their associated microbes form a multifaceted ecosystem. Gaining mechanistic insight into this system necessitates reductionist models integrating ecological and immunological dimensions. Over the past decade, the gnotobiotic Oligo-Mouse-Microbiota (OMM12) mouse line has exemplified this approach, p...

The microbiota–proteostasis axis: implications in neurodegenerative diseases

Abstract Disruption of protein homoeostasis, or proteostasis, is a hallmark of protein conformational diseases (PCDs), including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. These disorders are characterized by progressive protein aggregation and cellular dysfunction, yet no effective therapies exist. Emerging evidence indicat...
