Intermittent Fasting and Manipulating Mitochondrial Networks May Increase Lifespan
A new study from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health shows that manipulating mitochondrial networks inside cells — either by dietary restriction or…
‘Cellular Time Machine’ Slows Aging, Extends Lifespan
A team of biologists from UCLA have developed an intervention that serves as a cellular time machine — turning back the clock on a key…
Life-Extending Hormone FGF21 Also Protects Against the Loss of Immune Function
New research from Yale University shows that the hormone FGF21, which extends lifespan in mice by 40%, protects against the loss of immune function that…
Telomerase Gene Therapy Extends Mouse Lifespan by 24%
Inducing cells to express telomerase, the enzyme which is supposed to slow down the metabolic clock, has enabled researchers boost the lifespan of mouse by…
