Cave Adaptation Favors Aging Resilience in the Mexican Tetra

Ansa E. Cobham, Alexander Kenzior, Pedro Morales‐Sosa…·Nicolas Rohner

The paper compares aging markers between surface and cavefish populations of Astyanax mexicanus, finding that cavefish show less pronounced aging signatures and suggest metabolic shifts, particularly mitochondrial function, contribute to their extended longevity.
