Geroprotectors are compounds that target the underlying mechanisms of ageing to delay the onset of age-related diseases and extend both lifespan and health span. As ageing is driven by the accumulation of cellular damage, DNA instability, epigenetic changes, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation, the concept of geroprotection focuses on compounds that can mitigate these processes. Oleuropein (OLE) and its derivat...

There is an urgent need by the European Union to establish baseline levels for many widespread pollutants and to set out specific levels for these under the Zero pollution action plan. To date, few systematic reviews, superseded by bibliometric analyses, have explored this issue. Even less research has been carried out to compare the efficacy of these two data extraction approaches. This study aims to address these two issues...

Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a parasomnia characterized by loss of physiological atonia of skeletal muscles with abnormal behaviors arising during REM sleep. RBD is often the early manifestation of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly alpha-synucleinopathies, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD). Both structural and functional neuroimaging studies suggest that iRBD might share, or even pr...

Luminescent bacteria are a fascinating component of marine microbial communities, often related to the light emissions in deep sea marine organisms. They are mainly affiliated with specific phylogenetic groups, such as Photobacterium, Vibrio, and Photorhabdus, and are sometimes involved in symbiotic relationships. However, the luminescence of some marine organisms remains a poorly understood process, and it is not always certa...
