Approved Human Study Sets Up Pivotal Test for Aging Theory from Harvard’s David Sinclair

In a major proving ground test for the longevity field, the FDA has given its approval for a human trial for a gene therapy attempting a near-total rejuvenating reset of cells.

The FDA has greenlighted Life Biosciences’ first human trial testing whether their gene therapy can confer a near-total rejuvenating reset of cells.

Clinical Trials

Based on current scientific evidence, Dutch researchers have ranked existing anti-aging interventions based on how likely they are to protect against DNA damage and aging.

Elon Musk Says Figuring Out How to Reverse Aging ‘Highly Likely’

The business magnate and SpaceX CEO, Elon Musk, now believes that death is a kind of engineering bug that determined aging scientists can eventually fix.

The high-profile American entrepreneur, Elon Musk, now says figuring out human lifespan extension is highly likely.

Model: Female New Zealand white rabbits 
Dosage: 20 mg/kg of fisetin

Fisetin reduces susceptibility to a heart condition called atrial fibrillation (AF) and eliminates age-promoting senescent cells in aged rabbits.

Unpublished Results Show NMNH Triples NAD+ in First Human Trial

According to newly released results from a first-of-its-kind clinical trial, reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMNH) triples circulating NAD+ and improves subjective quality of life scores.

Results from a first-of-its-kind human trial show that reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMNH) triples circulating NAD+ levels.

Model: Male C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: 150 mg/kg/day of diallyl sulforated compounds in food

Diallyl sulfonated compounds (DAS), found in garlic, extend the lifespan of mice while counteracting signs of aging, such as grip weakness and memory loss. 

Dr. Vivian Capilla-González, one of the researchers on the study (image: cde.ual.es).

Model: Young C57BL/6J mice fed a high protein (56% of daily calories) diet for 20 weeks 
Dosage: Injection with either 400 mg/kg of NMN or 20 mg/kg of 78c for 4 weeks

High protein intake improves the body composition of aged mice, but it lowers NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) levels and promotes metabolic aging. 

Metabolism

Model: Male COX7RP transgenic mice with systemic overexpression of COX7RP, aged under standard laboratory conditions and compared with age-matched wild-type controls.
Dosage: Not applicable. COX7RP activity was increased via genetic overexpression rather than drug administration.

Boosting mitochondrial efficiency by increasing COX7RP activity extended lifespan in mice while improving energy production and reducing inflammation.
