Model: 20-month-old female C57BL/J mice 
Dosage: 10 nmol/kg/day of semaglutide

Semaglutide extends mouse lifespan and targets signs of aging, such as diminished NAD+, while mimicking the anti-aging effects of caloric restriction (consuming fewer calories).

People have started repurposing erectile dysfunction medications, such as Cialis and Viagra, to help them live longer.

Model: Skin, arterial, and lens tissue from donors between the ages of 20 and 25 and also 75 
Dosage: 5 µM solution of CMLase, incubated overnight

Bioengineered Enzyme Shows Ability to Reverse Molecular Aging in Human Tissue

An engineered enzyme reverses age-related protein damage that researchers have long thought irreversible in human eye, skin, and artery tissues.

Model: C57BL/6 mice
Dosage: 500 mg/kg/day of SRN-901 via oral gavage for six days per week starting at 18 months of age; 14.4 ppm of rapamycin mixed in food starting at 18 months of age; 300 mg/kg/day of NMN via oral gavage for six days per week starting at 18 months of age; and 300 mg/kg/day of NR via oral gavage for six days per week starting at 18 months of age

Seragon Publishes Record-Breaking SRN-901 Longevity Data, Demonstrating 33% Lifespan Extension in Mice

In a newly published mouse study, SRN-901 extended remaining lifespan by 33%, slowed frailty progression, and lowered tumor incidence.

Seragon’s SRN-901 extended the remaining lifespan of adult mice by 33%, attenuated frailty progression by 70%, and reduced tumor incidence by 30.53%, according to a newly published preclinical study.
