Will Interventions that Delay Aging in Animals Work for Humans?

Researchers have shown that using certain agents targeting hallmarks of aging (like inflammation) can extend lifespan in mice, yet human trials are just beginning to uncover whether they work in humans.

Aging &amp; Longevity

AI may be capable of discovering drugs that target the multitude of biological processes thought to underlie the aging process.  

AI may identify new targets for anti-aging drugs that humans may have overlooked.

Senolytics: Clearing Troublesome Senescent Cells for Revitalized Aging

Senolytics selectively eliminate senescent cells — non-proliferative cells that release inflammatory molecules to surrounding tissue triggering otherwise healthy cells to enter senescence.

Senolytics, including dasatinib and quercetin along with fisetin, selectively eliminate aged, non-proliferative cells (senescent cells) to revitalize organ health and alleviate age-associated diseases.

Cellular Rejuvenation Prolongs Lifespan and Mitigates Age-Related Disease 

Researchers in France moderately prolong the lifespan of mice and reverse aspects of skin, bone, lung, and kidney aging with cellular reprogramming — a new technology that rejuvenates cells.
