The review summarizes recent achievements and future prospects in the use of chronobiotics for regulating circadian rhythms regulation. Special attention is paid to the mechanisms' action, their classification, and the impact of chemical interventions on the biological clock. Chronobiotics defined as a diverse group of compounds capable of restoring disrupted circadian functions, addressing challenges such as irregular work schedules, artificial light exposure or ageing.

Biological membranes and histohematic barriers protect the internal environment of the cell and organism from endogenous and exogenous impacts. It is known that the integrity of these barriers decreases with age due to the loss of homeostasis, including age-related gene expression profile changes and the abnormal folding/assembly, crosslinking, and cleavage of barrier-forming macromolecules in addition to morphological changes in cells and tissues.

This paper provides an overview of existing papers on multi-omics integrative approaches in calculating the biological age of a human. An analysis of the most common options for integrating methylomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, microbiomic and metabolomic datasets was carried out.

The work examines two types of artificial intelligence (AI): weak and strong ones. A review of experimental algorithms using both deep machine learning and computer vision technologies to work with WSI images of preparations, diagnose and make a prognosis for various malignant neoplasms is carried out.

Overexpression and knockdown of the nejire (nej) gene (codes for an ortholog of human CBP/p300 proteins) in various tissues (the fat body, intestine, and nervous system) and at various stages of the life cycle (throughout all developmental stages or in adulthood only) were tested for effect on lifespan in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The activation of nej exerted a positive or a negative effect on the lifespan, depending on the induction mode and the sex.
