The European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy ageing(@EIP AHA) is a multi-stakeholder partnership to implement innovative ICT-driven technologies for active
and healthy ageing at European scale and to remove barriers that prevent their deployment. One of its six Action Groups focuses on independent living while others deal with related topics like the prevention and early detection of falls and age-friendly communities and environments.
The study aimed to define a set of genes associated with'healthy ageing'in 65 year olds.
The researchers demonstrated that patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease had altered an'healthy ageing'RNA signature in their blood,
'or'failure to activate the healthy ageing program.''The authors say that their'healthy age gene score'could be integrated to help decide which middle-aged subjects could be offered entry into a preventative clinical trial many years before the clinical expression of Alzheimer's.
The study aimed to define a set of genes associated with'healthy ageing'in 65 year olds.
and used the information to develop a signature of 150 RNA genes that indicated'healthy ageing'.
In particular, they demonstrated that patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease had altered an'healthy ageing'RNA signature in their blood,
