Fused, elongated mitochondria are more efficient in generating ATP than fragmented
mitochondria. In diverse C. elegans longevity pathways, increased levels of fused …

The role of reproduction in increasing oxidative stress may be fundamental to understanding
aging and the evolutionary trade-off between survival and fecundity. However, contradictory …

Larger dog breeds live shorter than the smaller ones, opposite of the mass-lifespan
relationship observed across mammalian species. Here we use data from 90 dog breeds …

Compared to mice with the same body mass, naked mole-rats have a lower metabolic rate,
higher homeostasis-maintaining activities, higher oxidative damage levels, but a longer …

Life-history allocation trade-offs are dynamic over time and space according to the
ecological and demographical context. Fluctuations in food availability can affect …

The author comments on a study by SN Chaudhari and ET Kipreos, wherein they
hypothesized that mitochondrial fusion promotes survival, especially in old animals, through …
