[HTML][HTML] Mitochondrial fission and fusion: A dynamic role in aging and potential target for age-related disease

YJ Liu, RL McIntyre, GE Janssens… - Mechanisms of ageing …, 2020 - Elsevier
The mitochondria is the major hub to convert energy for cellular processes. Dysregulation of
mitochondrial function is one of the classical hallmarks of aging, and mitochondrial …

Protein biogenesis machinery is a driver of replicative aging in yeast

GE Janssens, AC Meinema, J Gonzalez, JC Wolters… - elife, 2015 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.08527.001 An integrated account of the molecular changes occurring during

Healthy aging and muscle function are positively associated with NAD+ abundance in humans

GE Janssens, L Grevendonk, RZ Perez… - Nature Aging, 2022 - nature.com
Skeletal muscle is greatly affected by aging, resulting in a loss of metabolic and physical
function. However, the underlying molecular processes and how (lack of) physical activity is …

[HTML][HTML] DAF-16/FOXO and HLH-30/TFEB function as combinatorial transcription factors to promote stress resistance and longevity

XX Lin, I Sen, GE Janssens, X Zhou… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
The ability to perceive and respond to harmful conditions is crucial for the survival of any
organism. The transcription factor DAF-16/FOXO is central to these responses, relaying distress …

[PDF][PDF] A conserved mito-cytosolic translational balance links two longevity pathways

M Molenaars, GE Janssens, EG Williams, A Jongejan… - Cell metabolism, 2020 - cell.com
Slowing down translation in either the cytosol or the mitochondria is a conserved longevity
mechanism. Here, we found a non-interventional natural correlation of mitochondrial and …

From molecular promise to preclinical results: HDAC inhibitors in the race for healthy aging drugs

…, RH Houtkooper, GE Janssens - EMBO molecular …, 2019 - embopress.org
Reversing or slowing the aging process brings great promise to treat or prevent age‐related
disease, and targeting the hallmarks of aging is a strategy to achieve this. Epigenetics …

[HTML][HTML] Evidence for the hallmarks of human aging in replicatively aging yeast

GE Janssens, LM Veenhoff - Microbial Cell, 2016 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Recently, efforts have been made to characterize the hallmarks that accompany and contribute
to the phenomenon of aging, as most relevant for humans 1. Remarkably, studying the …

[HTML][HTML] Integrating the hallmarks of aging throughout the tree of life: a focus on mitochondrial dysfunction

…, M Molenaars, RL McIntyre, GE Janssens… - Frontiers in cell and …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Since the identification and definition of the hallmarks of aging, these aspects of molecular
and cellular decline have been most often described as isolated or distinct mechanisms. …

[HTML][HTML] Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical activation of FOXO3 for healthy longevity

…, TA Donlon, RH Houtkooper, GE Janssens - Ageing research …, 2022 - Elsevier
Life expectancy has increased substantially over the last 150 years. Yet this means that now
most people also spend a greater length of time suffering from various age-associated …
