Next-Generation Metabolic Theory Suggests Glycolytic ATP Decline May Limit Lifespan
BUFFALO, NY — March 3, 2026 — A new #research perspective was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on February 24, 2026, titled “A decline in glycolytic ATP production is the fundamental mechanism limiting lifespan; species with an optimal rate of decline over time survived.” Led by Akihiko Taguchi — who is also the corresponding author and is affiliated with the Department of Regenerative Medicine Research, Foundation for Biomedical Research and Innovation at Kobe — the perspective advances a unifying conceptual framework in which a programmed or selected decline in glycolytic ATP production…
