Aging Clocks Applied to Human Trial Data Support AI-Designed Drug Lowering Age

Six proteomics-based aging clocks (age assessments from large-scale analyses of proteins) agreed that patients treated with the AI-designed drug rentosertib appeared younger.

The AI-designed drug rentosertib was shown to lower biological age across six aging clocks in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

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). 

Scientists find that meloxicam preserves muscle mass and strength in aged mice while sustaining mitochondrial function and activating multiple molecules associated with longevity. 


Skin &amp; Muscle

Model: SAMP8 mice (5 months old) and C57BL/6 mice (16 months old)
Dosage: 1.5 mg/kg of urolithin A was administered by intraperitoneal injection three times per week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for 8 weeks.

Study shows that urolithin A preserves memory and cognitive function during aging when treatment begins before age-related decline, but does not reverse cognitive impairment once it is established.
