Premature Aging: Cellular Mechanisms, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Interventions
1. Introduction to Premature Aging Premature aging, clinically characterized by the accelerated deterioration of biological function and tissue integrity, represents a complex intersection of genetic predisposition and severe cellular stress. While chronological aging is an inescapable biological reality, biological aging occurs at a highly variable rate. When the physiological hallmarks of advanced age—such as skin … Read more
