Model: 6- to 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice
Dosage: 0.5 mg/kg of isolated mitochondria injected every two days for six injections in the tail vein

Mitochondrial Transplantation Rejuvenates Aging Hearts, Study Finds

Transplantation of the cell’s powerhouses (mitochondria) improves heart function by restoring mitophagy (the cellular process that clears damaged mitochondria) in a mouse model of cardiac aging.

Bryan Johnson’s “Clone”: Where the Sci-Fi Ends and the Science Begins

The biohacker says his “newborn” clone could supply young blood, test experimental treatments, and eventually grow replacement organs.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: Aged C57B/6 mice (between 18-25 months old) 
Dosage: 5 mg/kg/day of ABT-263 was fed to mice while 50 mg/kg/day of dichloroacetate and metformin were injected. For lifespan, they were administered for five consecutive days, followed by a two-day intermission, then an additional five consecutive days, followed by a 6-week intermission.

The combination of dichloroacetate, metformin, and ABT-263 eliminates cancer cells and age-promoting senescent cells while improving endurance and extending lifespan in mice. 


The study was led by Dr. Irina Conboy (image: berkeley.edu). 

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.

Immunity

Model: Old (17- to 19-month-old) C57BL6 mice 
Dosage: 14 mg/mg/day of rapamycin in food for 5 months

A purported longevity drug, rapamycin, alters immune cells associated with cancer and reduces brain inflammation in mice.
