p16INK4a, NAD+, and Sestrins: New Targets for Combating Aging-Related Chronic Illness?

2014

Aging-related chronic illness is a price we have to pay to live longer. Prevalent among the oldest old, the condition limits their functional independence and also aggravates the course of several age-related chronic diseases. Thus, the search is on for efficient therapies that will mitigate age-related pathologies. In this article, we point out the potential clinical implications of recent provocative basic research in the field. New possible targets have been recently discovered, are clearly involved in age-related pathologies and might benefit the treatment of other age-related conditions, particularly metabolic diseases.
