17、icipants who lived to 100 had at least one of the signature genetic clusters (标志基因组) Dr.Thomas Perls at the Boston University School of Medicine said, “We realize this is a complex genetic puzzle.There is a long way for us to go to understand how the integration (融合) of these genes not just with the
18、mselves but with environmental factors is playing a role in this long life puzzle.”Perls has studied many factors that contribute to long life, and he is the first to acknowledge that living longer isnt likely to be simply a matter of genes.His previous work has shown, for example, that among most e

34、 none. But I thought Id give it a try and took off in that direction. Id barely noticed what his car looked like, and was just about to give up.

41、 flat. I started calling him “Lord Chesterfield” and “The Great Gatsby”Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and overall much happier. “Good dinner, Mom, ” he would say every evening. Without a word of objection he would carry in wood for the stov
