Model: Eight-week-old male C57BL/6J mice treated with 400 mg/kg/day of D-galactose via intraperitoneal injection for 12 weeks to induce accelerated aging.
Dosage: 400 mg/kg/day of Antarctic krill oil administered by oral gavage for 12 weeks, alongside D-galactose treatment. A comparison group received 400 mg/kg/day of fish oil under the same conditions.

Krill Oil Preserves Muscle Strength and Mitochondrial Health During Accelerated Aging

Daily krill oil supplementation preserves muscle strength, endurance, and mitochondrial health in mice with accelerated aging, outperforming fish oil.

Model: Eight-week-old C57BL/6J mice treated with 300 mg/kg/day of D-galactose by subcutaneous injections for eight weeks
Dosage: 100 mg/kg/day of NMN in drinking water for eight weeks and 5 × 10 5 hUC-MSCs suspended in 150 µL of PBS via tail vein injection on the first day of weeks five through seven

NMN with a stem cell therapy reduced markers of immune aging and improved coordination and memory performance in mice with chemically induced aging-like changes.

Immunity

Model: Apoe−/− C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet
Dosage: 1 × 109 CFU per 0.1 mL of Bacteroides uniformis administered to mice via oral gavage for 12 weeks and 25 mg/kg of pentadecanoic acid via oral gavage three times per week for eight weeks

New Study: Gut Bacteria Metabolite Reduces Arterial Plaque Burden by 50%

Researchers identified pentadecanoic acid, a gut-bacteria-produced metabolite, that lowered LDL cholesterol and limited arterial plaque buildup in mice.
