Model: Aged C57B/6 mice (between 18-25 months old) 
Dosage: 5 mg/kg/day of ABT-263 was fed to mice while 50 mg/kg/day of dichloroacetate and metformin were injected. For lifespan, they were administered for five consecutive days, followed by a two-day intermission, then an additional five consecutive days, followed by a 6-week intermission.

The combination of dichloroacetate, metformin, and ABT-263 eliminates cancer cells and age-promoting senescent cells while improving endurance and extending lifespan in mice.

NAD+ Ranked #2 Most Powerful Anti-Aging Agent

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.

DNA Repair

Model: 27-month-old male C57BL/6N mice 
Dosage: 50 mg/kg/day of fisetin for 1 week, followed by no treatment for 2 weeks, followed by another week of treatment

Plant-based molecule fisetin preserves muscle mass and strength in older mice via senolytic action — removal of senescent (dysfunctional) cells.

Skin &amp; Muscle

Model: C57BL/6N mice 
Dosage: 1 g/kg carvedilol in food for one week followed by four weeks of PAGln treatment, consisting of 50 mg/kg per day by injection, and the same PAGln treatment for four weeks followed by 50 mg/kg per day of ABT263 via oral gavage for five days

New Study Suggests Combining Senolytics with Blood Pressure Medication Counteracts an Aging Gut

Carvedilol, a blood pressure medication, and the senolytic agent ABT-263 both attenuate cellular senescence—an age-related, dysfunctional cellular state—driven by a gut bacterial metabolite in mice.

Columbia University scientists find that senolytics — compounds that remove age-promoting cells — restore hair follicle regeneration in a human cell/mouse model.
