《亚细胞生物化学》系列中的这本新书将重点讨论人体细胞衰老过程的生物化学和细胞生物学。这些章节将由各自领域的专家撰写，并将集中于亚细胞衰老研究中当前的一些关键研究领域。讨论的主要议题是线粒体老化、蛋白质平衡和老化以及参与老化的遗传过程。还将有一些章节专门研究各种维生素和矿物质对衰老的作用以及其他一些外部因素（微生物、ROS、炎症、营养）。本书将为读者提供一个亚细胞衰老领域的最新概况。本书将与第二卷合作出版，第二卷将讨论将衰老的细胞生物学转化为更多的临床环境，希望这两卷的结合能使人们对衰老过程中细胞和身体之间的联系有更深的了解。

This new volume in the Subcellular Biochemistry series will focus on the biochemistry and cellular biology of aging processes in human cells. The chapters will be written by experts in their respective fields and will focus on a number of the current key areas of research in subcellular aging research. Main topics for discussion are mitochondrial aging, protein homeostasis and aging and the genetic processes that are involved in aging. There will also be chapters that are dedicated to the study of the roles of a variety of vitamins and minerals on aging and a number of other external factors (microbiological, ROS, inflammation, nutrition). This book will provide the reader with a state of the art overview of the subcellular aging field. This book will be published in cooperation with a second volume that will discuss the translation of the cell biology of aging to a more clinical setting and it is hoped that the combination of these two volumes will bring a deeper understanding of the links between the cell and the body during aging.
