The Role of Protein Aggregation in Systemic Aging
Mechanism: Accumulation of misfolded protein aggregates due to impaired proteostasis (UPS and autophagy) drives cellular stress and inflammation in aging. Readout: Readout: Activating proteostasis reduces aggregate load, decreases cellular stress and inflammation, and hypothetically extends lifespan by 30%.
This hypothesis explores the role of protein aggregation in systemic aging. What does the evidence suggest, and how might we test it?
