Model: Male ApoE−/− mice fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce atherosclerosis.
Dosage: Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Mß-CD) at 2.0 g/kg, subcutaneous injection, twice a week

 A new study shows cyclodextrin reduces artery plaques in mice by lowering cholesterol and blocking inflammatory cell death. 

Cardiovascular

Columbia University scientists find that inflammation increases the risk of common chronic age-related diseases only in people from industrialized populations.

Immunity

Model: 24-month-old male C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: 1% w/v of betaine for three weeks

The naturally occurring compound betaine is elevated in healthy adults after long-term exercise and mitigates signs of aging in mice. 

Johns Hopkins Research Review: Parkinson’s Drug Extends Multiple Species' Lifespan

L-deprenyl, a drug used to treat Parkinson’s disease and major depressive disorder, has been shown to modestly extend lifespan across species, from mice to rats to hamsters.

L-deprenyl, a drug prescribed to treat Parkinson’s disease and major depressive disorder, has been shown to modestly extend average lifespan across mammalian model organism species.

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.
