ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers8080073 | Abstract: | Population aging is a public health problem affecting the majority of the developed world. As populations age, the incidence of degenerative diseases increases exponentially, leading to large increases in public spending on healthcare. Here we summarize recent findings on the developmental drift theory of aging, and the links that have been established between aging and the Wnt signaling pathways. We focus on insights derived from model organisms connecting the evolutionary basis of aging and the link to developmental programming. © 2016 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. | Source Title: | Cancers | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/173998 | ISSN: | 20726694 | DOI: | 10.3390/cancers8080073 |
