In the continued quest to pinpoint the molecules that turn us wrinkly and grey, some scientists are beginning to think that the walls of the cell nucleus might play an important role.
A new study shows that cells from people over the age of 80 tend to have specific problems with the nucleus that young children’s cells do not. The elderly nucleus loses its pert, rounded shape and becomes warped and wrinkled.
The discovery supports the up and coming idea that at least part of the normal ageing process may be driven by the nucleus’ decay, and that blocking this might curb some of time’s toll upon the body. “If this really has a physiological role in normal elderly people then it’s a huge deal,” says David Sinclair who studies the molecular mechanisms of ageing at Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, Massachusetts.
