Making CAR-T Cells Young Again: Restoring NAD+ to Rejuvenate Immunotherapy in Aging

A combined treatment of NMN with 78c (a small molecule that inhibits an NAD+-degrading enzyme) enhances the effects of the anti-cancer CAR-T cell therapy in aged mice and human cells.

Harvard’s Dr. David Sinclair believes an age-reversing pill may become available within a decade and that researchers may find a way to one day double human lifespan.

While improving immune health, the NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) precursor NR (nicotinamide riboside) may induce anxiety-like behavior in stressed, aged mice. 


The study was funded by the National Institute on Aging, one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
