Through the actions of 5α-reductase, testosterone is metabolized into DHT, which is neuroactive. DHT has been shown to regulate dendritic spine maturation and long-term potentiation in male rodents. This increase in neural connection can be stopped by administering finasteride, which inhibits 5α-r...
Aging is a ubiquitous biological process that results in a progressive and irreversible decline in physical function across all organ systems that is induced by the accumulation of damage in response to a variety of stressors. Surprisingly, in 1925, research revealed that light intensity could impact...

Aging is itself associated with chronic, low-grade inflammation, dubbed “inflammaging” [109]. This process has multiple contributors, including immune system aging, mitochondrial changes, and gut microbiota [110,111]. These changes may be secondary to common pro-inflammatory medical conditions that ...
