September 2016 in “Aging Cell” This study found that selenium deficiency in mice accelerated age-related conditions and metabolic decline but unexpectedly promoted longevity, suggesting low selenium levels might separate healthspan and lifespan.
April 2017 in “The FASEB journal” This study suggests that selenium deprivation in mice accelerates age-related degeneration but paradoxically promotes longevity, potentially decoupling healthspan from lifespan.
June 2026 in “Journal of Biological Studies” This review synthesizes preclinical evidence suggesting that Centella asiatica may extend healthspan by modulating aging hallmarks, enhancing DNA repair, improving mitochondrial function, and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, potentially paving the way for future gerotherapeutic strategies.
April 2015 in “The FASEB Journal” This study suggests that selenium deficiency accelerates aging-related health deterioration in mice with short telomeres, providing a model for exploring selenium’s role in human aging.
