Mitochondria-Made Molecule Reverses Memory Loss with Advanced Age

A naturally occurring compound, α-lipoic acid, helped elderly mice think like younger mice by restoring energy balance and calming brain inflammation, according to Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University researchers.

New Data Shows Combining Two Therapies Doubles Lifespan in Mouse Model

Immorta Bio, a biotech company, released results showing that combining its vaccine and stem cell therapy remarkably doubled lifespan in a mouse model of aging.

The biotech company, Immorta Bio, presented data showing a remarkable doubling of lifespan in a mouse model of aging with a combination of its vaccine and stem cell therapy.

Model: 14- to 15-month-old male C57BL/6J mice
Dosage: 50 mg injection of 3′-deoxyadenosine (cordycepin) because it was shown not to be absorbed if administered orally

Mushroom Compound Prolongs Lifespan If Taken At Correct Time

In mice, cordycepin—a molecule found in cordyceps mushrooms—prolongs lifespan and improves memory, strength, cardiac function, hormone levels, and metabolism.

Could Aging Leave a "Memory" That Spreads and Even Passes to the Next Generation?

A new aging model posits that aging imprints signatures across molecular, tissue, and organ system levels, and these signatures may also transmit across generations.
