An evolutionary perspective on the mechanisms of immunosenescence
DP Shanley, D Aw, NR Manley, DB Palmer - Trends in immunology, 2009 - cell.com
There is an accumulating body of evidence that a decline in immune function with age is
common to most if not all vertebrates. For instance, age-associated thymic involution seems to …

Food restriction, evolution and ageing
TBL Kirkwood, DP Shanley - Mechanisms of ageing and development, 2005 - Elsevier
The food restriction model for life extension is nearing “three-score and 10” years of age and
remains in good shape, preserving much of the mystique of its youth. Although originally …

Evolution of the human menopause
DP Shanley, TBL Kirkwood - Bioessays, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
Menopause is an evolutionary puzzle since an early end to reproduction seems contrary to
maximising Darwinian fitness. Several theories have been proposed to explain why …

Calorie restriction and aging: a life‐history analysis
DP Shanley, TBL Kirkwood - Evolution, 2000 - academic.oup.com
… We checked this in various ways, described more fully elsewhere (Shanley 1999). The model
predictions were relatively insensitive to the age when famine was experienced, although …

[HTML][HTML] Dynamic modelling of pathways to cellular senescence reveals strategies for targeted interventions
…, T von Zglinicki, DP Shanley - PLoS computational …, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Cellular senescence, a state of irreversible cell cycle arrest, is thought to help protect an
organism from cancer, yet also contributes to ageing. The changes which occur in senescence …

Genome-wide microRNA and gene analysis of mesenchymal stem cell chondrogenesis identifies an essential role and multiple targets for miR-140-5p
microRNAs (miRNAs) are abundantly expressed in development where they are critical
determinants of cell differentiation and phenotype. Accordingly miRNAs are essential for normal …
