Researchers have discovered that exosomes secreted by mesenchymal stem cells derived from human umbilical cord tissue (hucMSC-Exos) restore muscle function in a mouse model of sarcopenia. Useful messengers Exosomes are vesicles that carry molecular messages from cell to cell. When derived from youthful sources, they have been repeatedly found to have benefits in multiple animal...

A recent study investigated senescence in mouse and human skeletal muscle tissue. The authors demonstrated that the antiviral drug maraviroc reduces senescence and improves muscle health in aged mice [1]. Aging muscle tissue Senescent cells are one of the hallmarks of aging. One of their key characteristics is the presence of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype...
