The First Database Of Tech Giants Collaborating With Healthcare: What Can We Learn?
We keep repeating for years that tech giants are marching into healthcare. This has become really pronounced in the past few weeks, when we hardly saw a day without a major, healthcare-related announcement from one of these companies, like Amazon’s $3.9B OneMedical acquisition, or the plans for entering the Japanese prescription drug market, but we can also mention ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok acquiring a private hospital chain for $1.5B. And it’s not only tech giants, but retail giants too, that are planning to disrupt the healthcare landscape, CVS Health just confirmed an $8B takeover of Signify Health...

This study demonstrates that adoptive astrocytic Mt transfer enhances neuronal Mn-SOD-mediated anti-oxidative defense and neuroplasticity in the brain, which potentiate functional recovery following ICH.
First Generation Stem Cell Therapies Remain Comparatively Poorly Understood

We are something like thirty years into the increasingly widespread use of first generation stem cell therapies. Cells are derived from a variety of sources, processed, and transplanted into patients. Near all ...

Metabolic Changes in Aging Humans
Within a species, variations in the operation of metabolism correlate with later life health and life span. Insulin metabolism is one of the more prominent and well studied examples. Much of this may stem from the lifestyle choices that epidemiology shows explain the majority of the variation in human life expectancy. Become sedentary or overweight and this pushes metabolism into a less optimal, more harmful state. The consequences to health and risk of mortality accrue over a long period of time, but are no less real for it.
The study of aging has long been linked with the study of metabolism, as early theories p...

The New Deal and Recovery, Part 20: The Phantom Depression
George SelginIt was supposed to be a debacle.As the Second World War drew to a close, the nation’s leading economists feared that, once the armed services demobilized, at least 8 million men and women, perhaps many more, would be unemployed. That meant an unemployment rate of 12 percent—almost as high as the rate before Hitler raided the Low Countries, setting off the “ wartime boom.” If their forecasts were reliable, they meant that the postwar economy could end up being no closer to recovery than the prewar economy had been.A Worst ‐Case ScenarioOf course, such dire predictions weren ’t unconditional....

Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 8th 2022
In conclusion, aging research will benefit from a better definition of how specific regulators map onto age-dependent change, considered on a phenotype-by-phenotype basis. Resolving some of these key questions will shed more light on how tractable (or intractable) the biology of aging is.

Interviews on Aspects of Aging with Judith Campisi and Dena Dubal
Today I'll point out a pair of interviews with researchers Judith Campisi and Dena Dubal, in which they discuss quite different aspects of aging. Campisi's research has a heavy focus on cellular senescence in aging. Cells become senescent constantly in the body, most because they hit the Hayflick limit on replication imposed upon the somatic cells that are the overwhelming majority of cells in our tissues. Cells can also become senescent because of damage, or encouraged into senescence by the signaling of other, nearby senescent cells. Once senescent, cells are normally quickly removed by the immune system or programmed ce...

Amazing Technologies Changing The Future Of Dermatology
Smart algorithms will soon diagnose skin cancer, dermatologists consult patients online, and 3D printers will print out synthetic skin to fight tissue shortages. There is a lot going on in dermatology, and medical professionals should prepare in time for the technological changes before they start swiping through the specialty. Let’s start by familiarising ourselves with the most amazing technologies changing the future of dermatology!
Skin cancer is too common
According to statistics from the WHO, currently, some 1.5 million non-melanoma skin cancers and 325,000 melanoma skin cancers occur globally each year. Data...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 1st 2022
In this study, we used the recently released Infinium Mouse Methylation BeadChip to compare such epigenetic modifications in C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2J (DBA) mice. We observed marked differences in age-associated DNA methylation in these commonly used inbred mouse strains, indicating that epigenetic clocks for one strain cannot be simply applied to other strains without further verification. Interestingly, the CpGs with highest age-correlation were still overlapping in B6 and DBA mice and included the genes Hsf4, Prima1, Aspa, and Wnt3a. Furthermore, Hsf4, Aspa, and Wnt3a revealed highly significant age-associated DNA methyla...

Aubrey de Grey on Progress in SENS Rejuvenation Research
In this recent interview with Aubrey de Grey touches on a number of areas of progress made by the research and development community in recent years, projects that lead towards rejuvenation therapies based on the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS). In the SENS view, supported by a very sizable literature accumulated over the past century, aging is caused by underlying processes of damage accumulation. What we think of as aging is a diverse collection of downstream consequences of that damage. Periodically repairing the underlying damage, allowing the normal maintenance of the body to continue as it woul...

How IoT Medical Devices Save and Improve Lives
The following is a guest article by Erik Kling, Interim Head of IoT Americas at Vodafone Business.
IoT, or the Internet of Things, has transformed our homes with connected lights and smart appliances. It’s also revolutionized all areas of business, including manufacturing. Sensors connected to the internet can track goods throughout the supply chain — from sourcing materials to delivering completed products to consumers.
IoT technology has improved the way we live, but its most profound impact may be in healthcare, where it’s saving lives and improving health.
Before IoT revolutionized healthcare, doctors and care pr...

Where this ends is unknowable but unlikely to be good.In the US we are seeing almost daily mass shootings and no-one seems to know what to do. Just pathetic.In the UK the hangover is slowly lifting after the 4 day royal celebration.In OZ we are having an energy crisis which we hope we will find solutions for soon!-----Major Issues.------https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/economics/australias-labor-government-faces-a-whole-new-economic-ball-game/news...
