The Harvard geneticist discussed an early human trial, unpublished mouse results, and an AI-assisted search for chemical rejuvenation therapies on the Joe Rogan Experience. 

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: Chronically stressed mice 
Dosage: 9 mg/kg/day of L-serine, or 5 mg/kg/day of dasatinib combined with 50 mg/kg/day of quercetin

Supplementing chronically stressed mice with L-serine, an amino acid, counters signs of anxiety and diabetes while diverting age-promoting senescent cells within the brain’s fear center. 

Diabetes &amp; Obesity

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). 


The study was led by Dr. Danica Chen (image: berkeley.edu). 

Model: 6-week-old ICR mice
Dosage: 250 mg/kg per day or 500 mg/kg per day of glucosamine and 100 mg/kg per day or 200 mg/kg per day of aspirin for either eight (acute alcohol exposure model) or 40 days (chronic alcohol exposure model)

New Study Supports Repurposing Glucosamine Against Liver Aging

A sugar-like compound found in cartilage called glucosamine reduces dysfunctional cells (senescent cells) in the liver and attenuates liver damage from alcohol consumption in mice.

(Glucosamine capsules | MedicalNewsToday)

Glucosamine alleviates liver damage from alcohol consumption in mice, supporting its potential for use against alcoholic liver disease.

Model: Female Balb/c mice exposed to ultraviolet radiation 
Dosage: 2%, 5%, 7.5%, or 12.5% of nicotinamide (weight/volume) applied topically, once daily, five times per week

The NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) precursor nicotinamide prevents skin aging, in part by targeting age-promoting senescent cells in mice.
