Model: Eight-week-old C57BL/6J mice treated with 300 mg/kg/day of D-galactose by subcutaneous injections for eight weeks
Dosage: 100 mg/kg/day of NMN in drinking water for eight weeks and 5 × 10 5 hUC-MSCs suspended in 150 µL of PBS via tail vein injection on the first day of weeks five through seven

NMN Enhances Stem Cell Therapy’s Effects on Immune Aging in Latest Study

Combining NMN with umbilical cord–derived stem cells improved motor and cognitive function while reducing markers of immune aging in mice with chemically induced aging.

NMN with a stem cell therapy reduced markers of immune aging and improved coordination and memory performance in mice with chemically induced aging-like changes.

Immunity

The Overlooked Organ That Could Hold the Key to Fighting Aging

Scientists are researching ways to regrow the thymus, an immune organ that vanishes with age, to suppress the tolls of aging.

An organ involved in immunity, the thymus, vanishes as people get older, and scientists are researching ways to regrow it to fight aging.

Participants: Healthy middle-aged to older adults (average age: ~53 years)
Dosage: 1,000 mg/day of urolithin A for 28 days

Supplementing healthy adults with urolithin A —a compound produced by our gut bacteria— counters signs of age-related immune system decline.
