Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Interoception refers to the body's perception and regulation of internal physiological states and involves complex neural mechanisms and sensory systems. The current definition of interoception falls short of capturing the breadth of related research; here, we propose an updated definition. Homeostasis, a foundational principle of integrated physiology, is the process by which organisms dynamically maintain optimal balance across all conditions through neural, endocrine, and behavioral functions. This review examines the role of interoception in body homeostasis. Aging is a complex process influenced by multiple factors and involving multiple levels, including physical, psychological, and cognitive. However, interoceptive and aging interoceptive interactions are lacking. A new perspective on interoception and aging holds significant implications for understanding how aging regulates interoception and how interoception affects the aging process. Finally, we summarize that arachidonic acid metabolites show promise as biomarkers of interoception-aging. The aim of this study is to comprehensively analyze interoceptive-aging interactions, understand the aging mechanism from a novel perspective, and provide a theoretical basis for exploring anti-aging strategies.
