Age Resistance Mechanisms

Meaning

Age resistance mechanisms refer to the intrinsic biological pathways and cellular processes that actively counteract the degenerative changes associated with chronological aging. These mechanisms are vital for maintaining cellular integrity, tissue function, and overall physiological resilience over time, contributing significantly to healthspan and longevity. They encompass a coordinated defense system that protects against molecular damage, genomic instability, and metabolic decline. Clinical strategies in longevity medicine often focus on optimizing or upregulating these endogenous protective systems.
