Există o limită a vieții umane? Un studiu indică factorul responsabil care ne împiedică să trăim până la 200 de ani

A recent study suggests that human lifespan may be limited by the accumulation of somatic mutations, potentially allowing for a maximum lifespan of 146 to 194 years. Despite advancements in combating aging, these mutations remain an inevitable challenge. The research indicates that different organs age at varying rates, with the liver showing significant regenerative capacity, while the brain and heart retain mutations that could impair essential functions. Thus, the study highlights that the aging of these critical organs ultimately sets the biological limit of human longevity.
