Air pollution particles discovered hitching a ride around the body on red blood cells
https://publications.ersnet.org/content/erjor/early/2025/09/04/2312054100767-2025
Researchers have found the first direct evidence that tiny particles of air pollution stick to red blood cells, meaning they can travel freely around the body

Get your VO2 max as high as possible!
You might have heard VO2 max mentioned as a metric that should be on your radar
https://www.womenshealthmag.com/uk/health/a68113695/doctor-easy-longevity-tips/
A high VO2 max correlates to better physical fitness and is associated with a lower risk for cardiovascular disease and increased longevity. If you know your VO2 max, you can use it as a tool to help you exercise more efficiently.

Maria Branyas wurde 117 Jahre alt und blieb dabei weitgehend frei von Alterskrankheiten. Was kann ihre DNA über Longevity verraten?

Ein internationales Forschungsteam hat erstmals ein vollständiges molekulares Profil der Frau mit der bislang längsten verifizierten Lebensspanne (1907 bis 2024) erstellt. Trotz klassischer Zeichen des Alterns war ihre Zellbiologie erstaunlich „jung”. Bis zu ihrem Tod blieb sie von Krebs oder Demenz verschont. Die Studie liefert neue Hinweise darauf, wie genetische Anlagen und eine günstige Darmflora das Altern verlangsamen können.

Sie hatte ein exzellentes Mikrobiom:
Im Darmmikrobiom dominierte Bifidobacterium, eine „verjüngende” Bakteriengruppe. Ihre Mikrobiom-Vielfalt war deutlich höher als bei gleichaltrigen Kontrollpersonen. Die Forscher vermuteten, dass es eine Korrelation zum Joghurtkonsum der 117-Jährigen geben könnte. Sie aß täglich drei Joghurts, die die Bakterien Streptococcus thermophilus und Lactobacillus delbrueckii enthielten. Diese werden mit der Bildung von Bifidobacterium in Verbindung gebracht.

Außerdem aß die Spanierin täglich trank einen Smoothie aus acht verschiedenen Getreidesorten.
In ihrem Erbgut fanden die Forscher außerdem mehrere Genvarianten, die mit einer langen Lebensspanne in Verbindung stehen, unter anderem das sogenannte APOE-Allel. Auch neuroprotektive Gene, die Gehirnzellen vor Schäden bewahren, waren bei ihr homozygot vorhanden, also doppelt angelegt.
Besonders auffällig: In ihren Proben fehlten alle bekannten Genvarianten, die mit einem erhöhten Sterblichkeitsrisiko oder verkürzter Lebensdauer verbunden sind.
