Cardiovascular resilience in centenarians
"Understanding the biological, behavioural and environmental mechanisms underlying cardiovascular resilience in extreme longevity might inform strategies to extend cardiovascular healthspan across all ages..."

The cardiovascular resilience of #centenarians does not come from an absence of aging or disease, but from a delayed onset of cardiovascular pathology and the preservation of the body’s adaptive compensatory capacity.
A new review led by @pmcbastos:

What can centenarians teach us about cardiovascular ageing?
Happy to share our new review in Nature Reviews Cardiology, exploring the mechanisms that may support cardiovascular resilience at 100+.

The immune system in centenarians is remarkably youthful, far less prone to inflammaging

Our new paper in Nature Reviews Immunology is out: The immune system of centenarians.
A huge thank you to all co-authors, especially @Abeladrian94 , Carmen Fiuza-Luces, and Alejandro Lucia. A special acknowledgement to @InmaPerezPrieto for the outstanding figures.

Our new paper on reassessing the heritability of human lifespan is out in @ScienceMagazine! 🧬
For decades, the consensus has been that genetics explains just 20–25% of lifespan differences. We found that after accounting for extrinsic mortality, that number jumps to ~50%.

The Warburg effect may be involved not only in various types of cancer but also in metabolic and endocrine disorders such as type 2 diabetes.

The connection between chronic inflammation and depression continues to gain empirical strength. Framing physical activity through an evolutionary lens adds depth to our understanding that movement isn't just therapy, it's biology in action. @pmcbastos #MentalHealth #Inflammation
Systemic low-grade chronic inflammation plays a central role in the development and progression of depression
@pmcbastos & colleagues suggest an evolutionary framework for the role of physical activity and exercise for tackling inflammation:
