ABSTRACT
In this review several characteristics of the aging
process are described and some theories that try to
explain it are briefly mentioned. Although none of them
fully explains this phenomenon, they can interact
between each other in a complex way, out of which
cellular senescence is the common outcome.
Molecular changes take place on both genetic and
epigenetic levels, and several studies have associated
senescence with changes in the epigenetic-mediated
chromatin condensation, while others consider that
free radicals represent a useful mechanism to explain
aging and age-related disorders that, along with the
alteration of mitochondrial homeostasis, promote the
aging process through the accumulation of damage
along time.
