Sleep deprivation in flies and mice leads to increased ROS (Reactive oxygen species) molecules in the gut. This is shown to be highly correalted to lethality. To show the causality, the over-expression of anti-oxiodants restores normal lifespan in the animals.

Earliest evidence of Italians' genetic diversity dates back to end of last glacial period. Genetic peculiarities contribute to reducing, on the one hand, the risk of kidney inflammation and skin cancers, and, on the other hand, the risk of diabetes and obesity, favouring sometimes a longer lifespan

Study finds smoking increases SARS-CoV-2 receptors in the lung which may explain why smokers appear to be particularly vulnerable to severe infections. The analysis also indicates that the change is reversible, suggesting that quitting smoking might reduce the risk of a severe coronavirus infection.

Scientists found that a single amino acid change in the NLGN4 gene may explain why autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is more common in boys than in girls. The inability of NLGN4Y to compensate for mutations in NLGN4X may help explain why males tend to have a greater incidence of NLGN4X-associated ASD.
