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.

Can Testing Drugs in Five Species Help Us Find Treatments for Healthy Aging?

A new study describes a large cross-species testing system—using species from yeast to mice—to identify promising lifespan-extending drug candidates more efficiently.

A new platform tests aging intervention drugs in five animal model species—yeast, worms, flies, fish, and mice.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Scientists find that meloxicam preserves muscle mass and strength in aged mice while sustaining mitochondrial function and activating multiple molecules associated with longevity.

Model: Male C57BL/6J (B6) mice (15 months old at the start of treatment)
Dosage: Approximately 5 mg/kg/day of S-1-propenyl-L-cysteine (S1PC) was administered orally for 8 months, from 15 to 23 months of age. S1PC was given in chow containing 0.0025% S1PC, with a second experiment using drinking water to confirm the findings.

Researchers found that a compound found in garlic supports healthier muscle aging by boosting cellular defenses linked to longevity and maintaining physical performance.

Model: SAMP8 mice (5 months old) and C57BL/6 mice (16 months old)
Dosage: 1.5 mg/kg of urolithin A was administered by intraperitoneal injection three times per week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for 8 weeks.

Study shows that urolithin A preserves memory and cognitive function during aging when treatment begins before age-related decline, but does not reverse cognitive impairment once it is established.
