About this Research Topic
The primary aim of this research topic is to delve deeper into the mechanisms of inflammaging in animals and its role in age-related diseases. The goal is to develop new diagnostic biomarkers for inflammaging, which could potentially lead to early diagnosis and prevention of age-related diseases. In an aging society, the increase in age-related diseases is inevitable. However, the extension of healthy life years and the ability to stay healthy until old age are standard medical requirements. Therefore, the early diagnosis of inflammaging could be a significant step towards preventing various age-related diseases in animals.
The scope of this research topic is twofold. Firstly, it aims to understand the onset mechanism of inflammaging in animals. Secondly, it seeks to develop new diagnostic biomarkers for inflammaging. The research topic welcomes articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:
- Onset mechanism of inflammaging in animals
- Development of new diagnostic biomarkers for inflammaging in animals
- Early diagnosis of age-related diseases with inflammaging in animals
- New treatments (diet therapy, pharmacotherapy, regenerative medicine and others) for age-related diseases in animals.
All types of articles will be considered for publication, including case reports, original research articles, and reviews.
Keywords: aging, biomarker, chronic inflammation, proinflammatory cytokine, preventive medicine, senescence cell
