The scientific study focused on methodologies designed to slow the perceived or measurable rate of biological aging or physiological decline, often targeting cellular senescence pathways. It seeks to modulate the tempo of biological timekeeping.
Origin
This term is constructed from ‘chronometric’ relating to time measurement, ‘deceleration’ implying a reduction in speed, and ‘science’ indicating systematic inquiry into the underlying biological processes. It addresses temporal regulation in physiology.
Mechanism
Strategies within this science may involve optimizing mitochondrial function to reduce reactive oxygen species production, thereby mitigating oxidative damage to cellular structures. Furthermore, it may involve interventions that stabilize telomere length or enhance DNA repair mechanisms across various tissues.
