A recent study suggests that the transition of king penguins from the wild to a zoo environment, which resembles a sedentary, well-fed Western lifestyle, results in accelerated aging and changes
For many hundreds of years, Easter has been associated with rebirth and rejuvenation. Let’s see what’s been done last month to rejuvenate animals and people. Team and Activities Support the
Arming NK and T cells with metabolite-sensing receptors enhances their ability to infiltrate tumors and improves cancer outcomes in mice in a new study [1]. How to get immune cells
Researchers publishing in Aging Cell have discovered that using FGF21 to upregulate the sirtuin SIRT1 delays spinal disc degeneration in a rat model. A common cause of lower back problems
Rubedo Life Sciences, Inc. (Rubedo), an AI-driven, clinical-stage biotech focused on discovering and rapidly developing selective cellular rejuvenation medicines targeting aging cells, today announced preliminary results from a single-center, ascending-dose,
Scientists used red blood cells as membrane donors to encapsulate healthy mitochondria and send them into diseased cells, achieving improvements across multiple models and conditions [1]. The delivery problem Mitochondrial
Cellular senescence, a state in which cells stop dividing but resist dying, accumulating in tissues over time, has emerged as one of the most promising targets in longevity medicine. Senescent
A new study identified two polyunsaturated fatty acids, α-eleostearic acid (α-ESA) and α-ESA methyl ester (α-ESA-me), that showed senolytic activity in cell cultures and a mouse model [1]. An anti-aging
BioAge Labs, Inc. (“BioAge”, “the Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutic product candidates for metabolic diseases by targeting the biology of human aging, today provided financial results for the
In a new study, an ingenious CRISPR-based tool was used to create CAR T cells in vivo instead of the usual in vitro approach. It showed higher efficacy across three
The Buck Institute for Research on Aging today announced the launch of Healthspan Horizons, a new initiative designed to address one of the most urgent challenges in modern medicine: how
For the first time, the Neuroscience of Vitality and Aging (NOVA) Conference is bringing together leaders from across neuroscience, biotechnology, policy, and investment to examine one of the most urgent
Imagine this pitch: a simple cheek swab or blood spot mailed from home tells you not your birthday but your “true” biological age – the number that supposedly reflects your
A new study has found a negative association between unprocessed meat consumption and cognitive decline in carriers of the “pro-Alzheimer’s” APOE ε4 allele. This counterintuitive connection might have something to
Researchers publishing in Cell Reports Medicine have described the development of a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) that delivers mRNA to neurons in order to stop the formation of tau aggregates and
