The Latest Insight on Anti-Aging Therapeutics Targeting Cardiovascular Disease

According to French scientists, no organ system appears as vulnerable to aging as the cardiovascular system, and anti-aging therapeutics may help mitigate the effects of cardiovascular disease.

Anti-aging therapeutics may prevent and slow age-related cardiovascular dysfunction.

Cardiovascular

Model: Aged mice (18 months old) underwent exploratory laparotomy under isoflurane anesthesia to induce POCD.
Dosage: Berberine was given by oral gavage at 100 mg/kg per day for 14 days after surgery.

Ancient Plant Compound Shows Promise for Protecting the Aging Brain 

Study shows berberine, a natural plant compound, protects memory in aging mice after surgery by reducing brain inflammation, stress, and cell damage.


Brain &amp; Neurons

University of California (UC) Berkeley scientists moderately extend the lifespan of old mice by giving them oxytocin (sometimes called the "love hormone") and a compound that inhibits inflammation.  

Aging &amp; Longevity

Chinese scientists have genetically engineered stem cells capable of rejuvenating the health, including the cognition, of aged macaques.

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.
