Randomised clinical trial on a cohort of subjects with a diagnosis of schizophrenia of legal age, of both sexes, recruited in the mental health clinics of the Salamanca University Assistance Complex and who will be randomly distributed into two groups (intervention and control). The main objective of the study is to determine the effect of physical exercise on telomere size in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. As secondary objectives in this group of patients we will try to: Evaluate the influence of strength training on cognition and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. To quantify the impact of strength training on frailty. To determine the effect of strength training on quality of life. To study the possible correlation between physical parameters (frailty) and telomere length. To establish the importance of polymorphisms in telomerase genes, an enzyme involved in the maintenance of telomere length.
This pilot open-label study examines the effects of a combination of dasatinib plus quercetin - two drugs that have known senolytics properties - on physiological aging in older individuals with depression or schizophrenia.
A prospective, exposure-control cohort study of older adults living with HIV comparing the neurological status of those who have had HIV infection for a longer period of time (long HIV group) to age, gender, and community-matched comparison group who have had HIV infection for a shorter period of time (short HIV group).
Recently, numerous signaling proteins derived from adipose tissue and/or skeletal muscle have been described and are involved in the pathogenesis of obesity and the pathophysiology of aging. Current evidence suggests a role for the FGF-Klotho system, circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA), miR-499, and exosomes not only in the pathophysiology of obesity, but also in the association with sarcopenic obesity (OS) and in a accelerated aging. The investigator´s hypothesis is that obesity, especially OS, might be the cause of advanced aging, reflected in lower levels of the FGF-Klotho system, higher concentrations of cfDNA and a change in the profiles of miRNAs and exosomes, which could have an impact on risk. cardiovascular and metabolic. For this, a descriptive cross-sectional study is proposed in 50 patients with obesity, who will be classified as OS or not, and 25 healthy controls, between 50-60 years old. The determinations are made by the IBIOMED of the University of León. To study the evolution of aging markers over a year of follow-up, a second part of the study will analyze the possible differences according to the treatments assigned to each patient in the context of real life (lifestyle changes, drugs, bariatric surgery).
This is a pivotal, prospective active-controlled, randomized, double blinded (blinded evaluator and subject), intra-individual split-face comparison, non-inferiority study of DKL crosslinked sodium hyaluronate 23 versus Juvederm Volift™ after injection into the mid to deep dermis for correction of moderate to deep nasolabial folds (NLFs).
This current randomized, double-blind, comparator-controlled, cross over study investigates the efficacy and safety of RiaGev™ via evaluation of NAD+, ATP, glucose, insulin, glutathione, and cortisol levels in healthy adults of ages 36-65.
During menopause, there is a decrease in a hormone estrogen, which leads to aging of the vagina. Vaginal aging includes changes in the type and amount of healthy bacteria in the vagina, inflammation and a breakdown of natural barriers that keep the vagina healthy and protected from infections. Some menopausal women develop a condition called vaginal atrophy, which causes vaginal dryness, irritation, pain with sex, and itching. We are testing whether an estradiol tablet placed inside the vagina will lead to fewer changes in the types of bacteria present in the vagina, improve vaginal atrophy symptoms and ultimately keep the vagina healthier for a longer. This is important for women with HIV as they are living longer, healthier, sexually active lives due to successful treatment with antiretrovirals.
Topic of this work is the involvement of replicative helicases in human premature ageing syndrome. Replicative helicases are ubiquitous and essential during numerous reactions of the DNA metabolism. The family of replicative helicases (RecQL) is involved in the replication/repair of the DNA and in the telomere maintenance. There are 5 enzymes in human and 3 of them are involved in clinically recognizable syndromes: WRN for the Werner syndrome, BLM for the Bloom syndrome and RECQL4 for the Rothmund Thomson syndrome. All are responsive of a high cancer risk due to genomic instability. Molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in these diseases of ageing are unknown. Moreover, for all of them, there is not therapeutic or preventive solution.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate a therapy for the inflammaging (premature aging).
