What naked mole-rats lack in the looks department they make up for it in longevity, living healthily for nearly four decades.

When a key protein regulator dials down DNA repair mechanisms, our cells accumulate more mutations, which may cause us to age ...

The secret to the naked mole-rats' extraordinarily long life may lie in subtle changes to just four amino acids, researchers ...
