DHEA Modulates Immune Function: A Review of Evidence

The systematic review titled “DHEA Modulates Immune Function: A Review of Evidence” (Vitamins and Hormones, 2018, PMID: 30029724) explores the immunomodulatory effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its potential role in enhancing immune function. The review highlights DHEA’s ability to increase cytokine production, enhance natural killer (NK) cell activity, and improve

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases telomere length and decreases immunosenescence in isolated blood cells: a prospective trial

This study investigated the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on telomere length and immunosenescence, showing that HBOT increased telomere length and reduced immune cell senescence in adults aged 50-80 years. With 40 sessions of HBOT over 2 months, the results suggested a significant enhancement in cellular aging and immune
