In the current study, researchers investigated the neural mechanisms serving working memory (WM) function in seventy-eight healthy aging adults (range: 20.2–65.2 years) using magnetoencephalography (MEG) and a Sternberg WM task with letter stimuli.

PRESS RELEASE: A new research paper was published on the cover of Aging’s Volume 15, Issue 23, entitled, “Uncovering a unique pathogenic mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant: selective induction of cellular senescence.”

SARS-CoV-2 variants are constantly emerging with a variety of changes in the conformation of the spike protein, resulting in alterations of virus entry mechanisms. Solely omicron variants use the endosomal clathrin-mediated entry. Here, researchers investigate the influence of defined altered spike formations to study their impact on premature cellular senescence.
