Editing Aging and Senescence (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> ==
* '''Aging''' (Senescence) — The gradual deterioration of functional characteristics in living organisms.
* '''Senescent Cells''' — "Zombie Cells" that have stopped dividing but refuse to die, instead "Poisoning" their neighbors with "Inflammation" (SASP).
* '''Telomeres''' — The "Protective Caps" on the ends of DNA strands; they "Shorten" every time a cell divides (The Hayflick Limit).
* '''The Hayflick Limit''' — The discovery that a human cell can only divide ~50 times before it becomes "Senescent" and dies.
* '''Oxidative Stress''' — Damage caused by "Free Radicals" (unstable oxygen molecules) that "Rust" the inside of your cells.
* '''Mitochondrial Decay''' — When the "Power Plants" of the cell stop working efficiently, leading to "Energy loss" and "Cell death."
* '''Epigenetic Clock''' — A "Biological Age" test that looks at the "Tags" on your DNA to see "How fast you are actually aging," which can be different from your "Calendar Age."
* '''Autophagy''' — The "Self-Cleaning" process where a cell "Recycles" its old and broken parts (triggered by "Fasting" or "Exercise").
* '''Sirtuins''' — A family of "Longevity Proteins" that "Repair" DNA and protect cells from stress.
* '''Apoptosis''' — "Programmed Cell Death" (The "Clean" way for a cell to die without causing inflammation).
