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.

Model: C57BL/6J mice, J20 mice, and 3xTg mice 
Dosage: 4.3 μEq l−1 of lithium in drinking water starting at 10 to 12 months of age and continued for 10 to 14 months during aging

Harvard Study: A Low Dose of Lithium May Preserve Cognitive Resilience with Age

Researchers uncover significantly lower brain lithium levels in Alzheimer’s disease patients, and supplementing with a low-dose lithium salt restores memory in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model.

Seragon’s RESTORIN and the Evolution of Aging Interventions Containing NAD+ Precursors

Aging interventions that include NAD+ precursors have evolved, adding components targeting various hallmarks of aging, from inflammation to cell waste elimination.

Some aging intervention products with NAD+ precursors, like Seragon’s Restorin, have evolved to include additional components targeting multiple hallmarks of aging.

Aside from diet and exercise, senolytics — compounds that remove age-promoting cells — may rejuvenate the immune system and reduce the risk of neurodegeneration and dementia.
