Targeting senescent cells for a healthier longevity: the roadmap for an era of global aging

Yu Sun, Qingfeng Li, James L. Kirkland · 9 Aug 2022

Aging is a natural but relentless process of physiological decline, leading to physical frailty, reduced ability to respond to physical stresses (resilience) and, ultimately, organismal death. Cellular senescence, a self-defensive mechanism activated in response to intrinsic stimuli and/or exogenous stress, is one of the central hallmarks of aging. Senescent cells cease to proliferate, while remaining…

A framework of biomarkers for vascular aging: a consensus statement by the Aging Biomarker Consortium

Le Zhang, Jun Guo, Yuehong Liu et al. · 1 Aug 2023

Aging of the vasculature, which is integral to the functioning of literally all human organs, serves as a fundamental physiological basis for age-related alterations as well as a shared etiological mechanism for various chronic diseases prevalent in the elderly population. China, home to the world's largest aging population, faces an escalating challenge in addressing the…

Advances in human organoids-on-chips in biomedical research

Yaqing Wang, J. L. Qin · 1 Feb 2023

Organoids-on-chips is opening up new frontier of research in biomedical field by combining organoids and organs-on-chips technology. The integrative technology offers great opportunities to maximize the potentials of organoids with higher fidelity, thus building advanced organ model systems in a physiologically relevant manner. In this review, we highlight the key features of organoids-on-chips and how…

A framework of biomarkers for brain aging: a consensus statement by the Aging Biomarker Consortium

Yujuan Jia, Jun Wang, Jun-Rong Ren et al. · 6 May 2023

China and the world are facing severe population aging and an increasing burden of age-related diseases. Aging of the brain causes major age-related brain diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases and stroke. Identifying biomarkers for the effective assessment of brain aging and establishing a brain aging assessment system could facilitate the development of brain aging intervention…

Aging-associated accumulation of mitochondrial DNA mutations in tumor origin

Minghua Kong, Lishu Guo, Weilin Xu et al. · 29 Jun 2022

The majority of cancer patients are among aged population, suggesting an urgent need to advance our knowledge on complicated relationship between aging and cancer. It has been hypothesized that metabolic changes during aging could act as a driver for tumorigenesis. Given the fact that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations are common in both tumors and aged…

Life Medicine template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Life Medicine format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Life Medicine template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Oxford University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Life Medicine use?
Life Medicine uses Author–year (OUP) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Life Medicine, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Life Medicine?
No. DocuGuru generates the oup-authoring-template LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Oxford University Press-ready Life Medicine document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Life Medicine template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Life Medicine format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Life Medicine?
Life Medicine is a multidisciplinary journal published by Oxford University Press. DocuGuru's Life Medicine template matches Oxford University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Life Medicine PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Life Medicine template (the oup-authoring-template class) that is ready to submit to Oxford University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Life Medicine template cost?
You can start writing in the Life Medicine template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Life Medicine PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
