The stem cell theory of aging postulates that aging is the result of the failure of tissue specific stem cells to replenish tissues and to sustain tissue function. Stem cell functions decline with age, consistent with the degeneration and dysfunction of aging regenerative tissues. Stem cell dysfunction is associated with premature aging and evidence is emerging to suggest that stem cell manipulation can extend lifespan [1]. Longevity factors tend to be enriched or activated in stem cells compared to their differentiated progeny and are essential for stem cell maintenance [2, 3], providing further support to the stem cell theory of aging. Adult stem cells are maintained in a metabolically inactive quiescent state for prolonged periods of tim...
