Abstract Chronic viral infections are ubiquitous in humans, with individuals carrying multiple viruses that can reactivate during physiological stress, including severe illness1. Notably, SARS-CoV-2 infection has been shown to reactivate chronic viruses such as Epstein–Barr virus and cytomegalovirus, yet the full extent, temporal dynamics and immunological impact of viral reactivation in COVID-19 remain incompletely understood2,3,4,5,6,7.
Abstract Caloric restriction (CR) extends lifespan across diverse organisms, but the effects of CR on human aging and on healthspan are only beginning to be uncovered. In this study, we applied proteomics to plasma samples collected longitudinally from participants achieving, on average, 14% CR over 2 years as part of the CALERIE trial. We identified that inhibition of the complement pathway is linked to lower inflammaging.
I have read with interest the recent articles on the Greens Creek Mine and the tidelands sampling in Hawk Inlet. Yes, the runoff from the tailing pile needs to be handled in the most technological way possible. Perhaps an improved milling process would reduce the heavy metals in the tailing pile. As for the sampling on the tide flats in Hawk Inlet, the competence of the people doing the work should be questioned if they had not found lead and other minerals there.
It’s a Sunday in Johor, the southernmost state of peninsular Malaysia, and crowds of locals and foreigners are out for a good time in the sun. On the beach among the lounge chairs, young couples walk hand in hand, smartphone at the ready to immortalize the day with countless selfies. Around the manicured lawns, oversized statues of crabs and sea lions are a hit with the kids; parents and grandparents are all here to witness such precious moments.
