Biomarkers of aging for the identification and evaluation of longevity interventions Vrije Universiteit Brussel
With the rapid expansion of aging biology research, the identification and evaluation of longevity interventions in humans have become key goals of this field. Biomarkers of aging are critically important tools in achieving these objectives over realistic time frames. However, the current lack of standards and consensus on the properties of a reliable aging biomarker hinders their further development and validation for clinical applications. ...

Markers of Inflammation and Monoamine Metabolism Indicate Accelerated Aging in Bipolar Disorder Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Antwerpen
Background: A mild pro-inflammatory status accompanies bipolar disorder (BD). Inflammation can cause a shift in monoamine metabolism, thereby activating more cytotoxic pathways. The extent to which low-grade inflammation in BD interacts with monoamine metabolism and how this accords to aging and clinical course is unknown. Objectives: We evaluated the presence of alterations in inflammation and monoamine metabolism in BD throughout different ...
