The paper introduces a Composite Frailty Index (CFI) in house crickets to quantify functional aging and identify gerotherapeutic drugs.

This study tests intermittent dosing of rapamycin, acarbose, and phenylbutyrate in house crickets, finding lifespan extension and improved locomotion and cognition in some treatments.

This study shows that house crickets exhibit age-related cognitive decline, including sensory and learning impairments, similar to humans, making them a useful model for studying aging mechanisms.

This study analyzes age- and sex-dependent morphological changes in house crickets, highlighting structural adaptations and environmental factors affecting aging research.

A cocktail of rapamycin, acarbose, and phenylbutyrate slowed aging in mice by improving health metrics and reducing age-related lesions.
