Berberine Improves Spatial Memory in a Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s
Research published in Frontiers in Pharmacology shows that berberine reduces toxic protein accumulation in Alzheimer’s mice, providing new insights for future drug development in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
Rockfish DNA Reveals Genetic Clues For Longevity
A study in Science identifies genes related to immunity, DNA repair, and nutrient sensing as genetic drivers for rockfish lifespans exceeding 200 years.
Several Anti-Aging Molecules Work in Animals, But Will They Work in Humans?
FDA-Approved Antibiotic Extends Lifespan In Both Young and Old Lab Worms
Already known to have brain-protective and anti-inflammatory properties in mice and humans, minocycline extends lifespan up to almost 50% in a common lab animal used to study aging.
Longevity-Linked Protein Protects Heart Muscle From Lost Blood Flow, Study Shows
Researchers find a potential therapeutic strategy for preserving mouse heart tissue after impaired blood flow by activating a longevity-associated protein called TERT.
NIH Launches Program to Map Cells Linked to Human Health, Aging, and Disease
The National Institute of Health (NIH) Common Fund’s Cellular Senescence Network (SenNet) program awarded $125 million among 16 university teams to study non-replicating and aging-related “senescent” cells.
Green Tea Compounds Enhance Fitness & Lifespan of Nematodes
Research shows that antioxidant compounds in green tea called catechins increased the longevity and stress resistance of the roundworm C. elegans.
New Treatment Selectively Destroys Aging-Linked Cells
Researchers have fused antibodies with a cell toxic compound to remove non-proliferating (senescent) cells without harming non-senescent cells.
Removing “Zombie” Cells With Senolytics Improves Bone Fracture Healing in Young Mice
Mayo Clinic researchers cleared non-proliferating (senescent) cells with the combo of Dasatinib and Quercetin to accelerate fracture healing
Longevity Expert Dr. Lamming Discusses How Fasting Drives Metabolic & Aging Benefits in Mice
Dr. Dudley Lamming discusses his recent work on how fasting, not merely reducing calorie intake, drives metabolic benefits and promotes longevity in mice.
Why NAD+ Declines With Age
Long and healthy lifespans require NAD+, so why do levels of this vital molecule drop as we age?
Fasting, Not Simply Calorie Reduction, Stimulates Age-Defying Metabolic Benefits in Mice
A University of Wisconsin animal study shows that extended periods without eating, not decreased calorie intake, drive aging-resistant metabolic benefits.
Mayo Clinic Study Shows Spinal Cord Nerves Depend on NAD+
In mice, high-fat diets cause the degradation of conductive nerve coatings called myelin, but they can be regenerated by restoring NAD+ levels with the precursor NMN.
Telomere Length and Aging
Telomere shortening is a well-known and widely-used marker for biological aging. But should it be?
Study Shows NMN Enhances Activation of Cancer-Fighting Immune Cells
Taking NMN by under-the-skin injections or oral consumption improves immune cells that attack cancer and virally infected cells in mice.
What is NMN?
