SPOTLIGHTNew Epigenetic Clocks Advance Age Assessment Precision
A new method to accurately assess biological age—an age appraisal based on risks for aging-associated diseases—has progressed to cell-type resolution, offering more precision.
Neural Stem Cell Transplants Show Safety and Potential in Breakthrough Phase 1 Spinal Cord Injury Trial
Neural stem cell transplants show long-term safety, reduce chronic pain, and improve motor control in spinal cord injury patients.
Probiotics Reverse Aging When Combined with Vitamin D, New Research Shows
A pilot study shows that probiotics — beneficial gut bacteria — combined with vitamin D reverses biological age by over 10 years and improves the immune system of both men and women.
NMN and CoQ10 Can Minimize Irregular Heartbeats Following a Heart Attack
A new study showed that aged rats regularly taking this combo had improved heart function upon experiencing a heart attack.
New Study: A Bile Acid May Mimic Rejuvenating Effects of Calorie Restriction
Researchers show that a bile acid—lithocholic acid—confers effects associated with a calorie-restricted diet, such as alleviating insulin resistance and enhancing physical function in aged mice.
Scientists Engineer Peptide-Blood Gels that Successfully Regenerate Bone
University of Nottingham researchers engineer peptide-blood gels that mimic natural healing, enhance bone regeneration, and reduce inflammation.
Governmental Initiative Aims to Extend Americans’ Healthy Lifespan
A new government-sponsored program—the PROactive Solutions for Prolonging Resilience (PROSPR)---is centered on developing therapies that extend life duration without age-related diseases (healthspan).
New Research Uncovers Link Between Antibody Buildup and Aging
In what may be the discovery of a new hallmark of aging, researchers uncover the buildup of antibodies in tissue regions with a high prevalence of senescence (a dysfunctional state where cells release inflammatory molecules).
Can NMN End Your Struggle with Dry Mouth?
Japanese researchers show that NMN increases salivation and reduces the presence of dysfunctional cells that accumulate with age in salivary glands to counteract a dry mouth in old mice.
Age-Accelerating Poison in the Air and Food: Microplastics
