"This study opens new avenues for understanding the intricate balance between reproduction, damage repair, and lifespan. The sex-specific nature of germline regulation challenges existing paradigms ...
Researchers have found that germ cells, which develop into eggs and sperm, drive sex-dependent differences in lifespan in vertebrates. Female and male germ cells increase and reduce lifespan, ...
2.2.2. Biotic factors in ESD -- 2.2.3. Mechanisms underlying ESD -- 2.2.3.1. Stress-mediated regulation of ESD -- 2.2.3.2. Epigenetic regulation of ESD -- 2.3. Polygenic sex determination -- 3. Sexual ...
The study revealed unexpected and sex-specific effects of germline regulation on longevity and somatic repair in vertebrates. Contrary to classical evolutionary theories, it turns out that changing ...
