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.

Model: 11-month-old male C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: 30 mg/kg/day of NTX-748 (based on a small molecule called 78c) for 4 months, administered orally

Blocking NAD+ Breakdown Improves Cognitive and Physical Performance

Buck Institute scientists find that blocking the CD38 enzyme, which elevates NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), counteracts age-related cognitive and physical decline in mice.  

Study conducted at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging (image: linkedin.com).

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.
