The secret to a longer lifespan? Gene regulation holds a clue - EurekAlert

Researchers at the University of Rochester investigated genes connected to lifespan. Their research uncovered specific characteristics of these genes and revealed that two regulatory systems controlling gene expression—circadian and pluripotency networks—are …
