People living in megacities are old before their age

American scientists analyzed the data of men and women born in 1972 to find out when people began to age.

We all know that thanks to the achievements of medicine, the lifespan of people in developed countries has increased significantly and scientists are moving closer to creating drugs to treat diseases. y.

But as the study shows, the body's aging process in megacities begins early in the age of 26. The organs and tissues stop growing and gradually aging.

The aging process of people living in megacities begins early at age 26.

According to scientists, factors such as ecology, diet and sleep mode affect the rate of aging regardless of whether the brain can resist the aging process like the studies at Ruhr University, Germany, confirmed.

Transposition genes (transposons) can move in the genome causing problems in the functioning of cells. In young cells, the movement of transgene is prevented by heterochromatin . But in the process of aging, the structure of heterochromatin changes and the transgender genes escape that barrier.

In the study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, scientists at Brown University in the US have experimented with fruit flies and found that poor nutrition diets controlled activity. of transgenic genes and increased life expectancy.

Specifically, scientists controlled the Dicer-2 gene activity in fruit flies that controlled the transgenic genes, then introduced 3TC antiretrovirals into fruit flies, finding the result of genes. The displacement is controlled and the life of the fruit fly increases.
