American researchers have for the first time discovered the underlying gene responsible for the aging mechanism in diverse organisms.
A Potentially Universal Mechanism Of Aging Identified By Researchers
Published November 30, 2008, 3:14 am, Medical News Today
Like our current financial crisis, the aging process might also be a product of excessive deregulation. Researchers have discovered that DNA damage decreases a cell's ability to regulate which genes are turned on and off in particular settings. This mechanism, which applies both to fungus and to us, might represent a universal culprit for aging.
Scientists find key step in work to reverse aging

Researchers believe that they have identified a fundamental cause of aging, according to a study published this week in the journal Cell. The aging mechanism was previously found in fungus and has now been discovered in mice. It’s likely that the same process applies to humans, said the authors of the research, from Harvard. The study found that DNA damage, which accrues as we age, decreases a ...
Scientists Identify a Potentially Universal Mechanism of Aging
Published November 28, 2008, 4:28 pm, Slashdot
cybergenesis2008 points us to a summary of research out of Harvard Medical School in which a set of genes known to affect aging in yeast was found to affect aging in mice as well. The genes, called sirtuins, perform two particular tasks; regulating which genes are "on" and "off," and also helping to repair damaged DNA. As an organism ages, the frequency of damage to DNA increases, leaving less ...
