() has emerged as an outstanding model organism for investigating the aging process due to its shortened lifespan, well-defined genome, and accessibility of potent genetic tools. This review presents the current findings on chronological aging and photoaging in , exploring the elaborate molecular pathways that control these processes. The progression of chronological aging is characterized by a gradual deterioration of physiological functions and is influenced by an interaction of genetic and environmental factors, including the insulin/insulin-like signaling (IIS) pathway.

Although various clinical laboratory identification methods exist, culture-based techniques lack comprehensive evaluation. Thus, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of culture-based automation and non-automation methods.

The chemical compositions and biological activities of fruit, stem bark and root have been widely studied. However, the phytochemical components and the biological activities in leaves (GAL) are limited.

Nipa palm vinegar is an aqueous product that is normally used as a food supplement. The aim of this study was to study the determination of antioxidant activity and tyrosinase inhibitory activities of aqueous extract of original nipa palm vinegar (AE O-NPV), nipa palm vinegar powder (NPV-P) and aqueous extract of nipa palm vinegar powder (AE NPV-P) were examined.

In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, NUAF-1 and NUAF-3 are the only two assembly factors that have been characterized. In this study, we identify ACDH-12 as an assembly factor of the respiratory complex I.
