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

Participants: Prefrail older adults
Dosage: 50 mg/day of losartan for at least 8 weeks

Losartan, a common blood pressure medication, increases the survival rate of mice and improves the metabolic outlook of pre-frail older adults.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: C57BL/6N mice 
Dosage: 1 g/kg carvedilol in food for one week followed by four weeks of PAGln treatment, consisting of 50 mg/kg per day by injection, and the same PAGln treatment for four weeks followed by 50 mg/kg per day of ABT263 via oral gavage for five days

New Study Suggests Combining Senolytics with Blood Pressure Medication Counteracts an Aging Gut

Carvedilol, a blood pressure medication, and the senolytic agent ABT-263 both attenuate cellular senescence—an age-related, dysfunctional cellular state—driven by a gut bacterial metabolite in mice.
