Scientists discovered that longevity can be inherited through chemical signals inside cells, not just DNA. The finding shows how parents may pass down the benefits of longer life through subtle cellular messengers. Credit: Shutterstock Key Results New research in the roundworm C. elegans shows how changes in the parent's lysosomes that promote longevity are transferred to its offspring. The work describes a new link between lysosomes -- cellular organelles once thought to be the cell's
