Cellular immune activation in Sardinian middle-aged, older adults and centenarians by Sotgia, Salvatore

“…Thus, the serum concentrations of this biomarker of systemic immune and inflammation activation, were measured in a small cohort of Sardinian middle-aged, older adults and centenarians. There was a significant positive correlation between neopterin concentrations and age with the subjects in the 95-year-old group with the highest values. …”

Omega-3 fatty acid-rich fish oil supplementation prevents rosiglitazone-induced osteopenia in aging mice by Cugno, Chiara

“…Rosiglitazone is an effective insulin-sensitizer, however, associated with bone loss mainly due to increased bone resorption, and bone marrow adiposity, and decreased bone formation. We investigated the effect of the co-administration of fish oil (FO) rich in omega-3 fatty acids (FAs) on rosiglitazone (RSG)-induced bone loss in aging C57BL/6 mice and the mechanisms underlying potential preventive effect. …”

Development of value-added polyethylene grades with extended service lifetime: Weathering resistant flame retarded materials for outdoor applications by Porfyris, A. D.

“…The target was to reach V0 classification in UL94V flammability tests, while to a large extent maintaining the mechanical properties, such as, tensile and impact strength of the investigated polymers, thus ensuring that the additives do not interfere significantly with the material quality. Subsequently, the compounds were subjected to separate artificial UV and heat aging at 100 C for 1500 h; the formulations showed good flame retardance, even after prolonged artificial weathering, but there was an observable, although acceptable, decrease in the mechanical properties. …”

Histological evaluation of the male rabbit urethra: Regional and age-related variations and their relevance in tissue engineering and reconstructive surgery applications by Abbas, Tariq

“…Results: The rabbits' urethrae displayed significant similarities to human male urethra. The proximal and middle third of the urethrae were histologically characterized by an abundance of smooth muscle, while the distal third was composed of numerous sinusoids scattered among smooth muscle bundles that are decreasing in thickness and uniformity with increasing age. …”
