Gerontological Aspects of Genome Peptide Regulation

This monograph highlights the gerontological aspects of the peptide regulation of gene expression. It focuses on the mechanisms of the geroprotective action of peptides related to chromatin activation, increase in telomerase enzyme activity, and elongation of telomeres in different cells. A key role in the initiation of the biological activity of peptide is its interaction with DNA which provides genetic stability and a normalization of the age-related metabolic shifts. Study of the genetic mech
