Homeo EXPRESSION

There is a decline in the number of neurons in the cerebral cortex. Changes in the vestibular nuclei, the cerebellum and dorsal columns, damage to position sense receptors in the neck and limbs.

Muscle weakness all contribute to a deterioration in balance.

A common neurological cause of chronic urinary incontinence is damage to normal bladder inhibition so that the bladder has a small volume and increased tone and empties frequently.

Any changes in the neurological and musculoskeletal system interact to make poor mobility one of the most common problems to afflict elderly patients. Also, it is important to identify and treat any deterioration of mobility

in elderly individuals.

Umwelt

Arctica islandica hat einen entscheidenden Vorteil gegenüber anderen langlebigen Tieren: Man kann ihr Alter ziemlich genau bestimmen, denn die Muscheln bilden Jahresringe, ähnlich wie Bäume. Damit werden die Tiere

auch für Klimawissenschaftler interessant, lassen sich doch anhand der Ringe Eiszeiten oder Schwankungen der Umweltbedingungen ablesen.

Um die Ringe zu sehen, müssen die Muschelschalen einmal längst geschnitten und dann unter dem Mikroskop untersucht werden. Je älter eine Muschel umso genauer muss man hinschauen: Während die Tiere in ihren

ersten Jahren sehr viel Größe pro Jahr gewinnen, werden die Zuwächse im Laufe der Jahre immer geringen. Wissenschaftler sprechen dann von einem asymptotischen Wachstum.

Es gibt eine Reihe von Theorien über das Alter. Eine ist die Free Radical Theory of Aging, geht davon aus, dass bei der Zellatmung entstehende Sauerstoffradikale die DNA, auf dem der genetische Code in Form von

Basenpaaren gespeichert ist, schädigen und so für Alterung verantwortlich sind. Abschließend ist der Einfluss der Radikale aber nicht geklärt. Es gibt nach wie vor eine Reihe von Zweifeln an dem einfachen Erklärungsansatz.
