DNA Repair

Model: Male C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: 150 mg/kg/day of diallyl sulforated compounds in food

Diallyl sulfonated compounds (DAS), found in garlic, extend the lifespan of mice while counteracting signs of aging, such as grip weakness and memory loss.

How to Boost Mitochondrial Density and Quality for Longevity

Lifestyle hacks contrived to promote the tissue density and quality of mitochondria (the cell’s powerhouses) can aid in the efficient generation of cellular energy and reduce inflammation, thereby promoting longevity.

Exercise, nutritional support, and lifestyle hacks like cold exposure can all help mitigate mitochondrial dysfunction, a key hallmark of aging.

Model: Naturally aged 24-month-old C57BL/6 mice 
Dose: 0.1 mg/kg/day of folic acid administered orally for 12 months

Supplementation with vitamin B9, also known as folic acid or folate, prevents cellular senescence and slows vascular aging in naturally aged mice.  

Cardiovascular

Model: 20-month-old male C57BL/6 mice 
Dosage: 3,000 to 4,000 µg of ouabain dissolved in 27,000 to 36,000 µL of PBS injected twice per week every third week over a period of three months

AI Analyzes Millions of Molecular Profiles to Uncover Overlooked Aging Interventions

Harvard and MIT scientists analyze decades of publicly available molecular studies with a new AI platform to uncover hundreds of previously hidden anti-aging strategies, like the drug ouabain.

A new AI platform has uncovered hundreds of pro-longevity agents based on the reanalysis of millions of mouse and human gene expression samples.
