The interventions that may help fix or reset circadian rhythms, which decline with age.

The Latest Insight on Anti-Aging Therapeutics Targeting Cardiovascular Disease

According to French scientists, no organ system appears as vulnerable to aging as the cardiovascular system, and anti-aging therapeutics may help mitigate the effects of cardiovascular disease.

Anti-aging therapeutics may prevent and slow age-related cardiovascular dysfunction.

Does NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) really help with aging? A team of international scientists reviews the latest and ongoing clinical trials.

Part of the research team, including Dr. Evandro Fei Fang (middle), from the University of Oslo and Akershus University Hospital in Norway (image: med.uio.no). 

Model: Primary hippocampal neurons from non-transgenic C57BL/6 (nTg) and triple-transgenic 3xTg-AD mice; age groups: young (2–6 mo), middle (8–11 mo), and old (17–28 mo).
Dosage: Nicotinamide 2 mM + EGCG 2 µM applied to cultured neurons for 16 h (in vitro).

Study shows that brief nicotinamide + EGCG treatment restores neuronal energy in 16–24 hours, restores autophagy, reduces amyloid-beta buildup, and boosts neuron survival by ~22% in aging/Alzheimer’s lab models.

Participants: Healthy older adults 
Dosage: 1 mg/day of rapamycin for 8 weeks

Older adults taking low-dose rapamycin exhibit a reduction in senescent cells — cells that contribute to age-related diseases and a shorter lifespan.
