A new study from Harvard and MIT raises interesting questions.
in rapamycin as an exciting — and, according to some, maybe even game-changing — anti-aging drug.
Ultimately, the rapamycin-fed rodents did, in fact, live longer than those who weren't given the drug. And importantly, their lives weren't justin male mice. They went through all the normal mouse life cycles, but it just took longer. The rapamycin-powered male mice were also faster, stronger, and all-around healthier than those who didn't receive the pharmaceutical.
The researchers have a few cellular clues as to why the drug was so effective. At the end of the treatment period, the dosed mice were discovered to have genetically younger liver transcriptomes — in other words, the liver's mRNA transcript pool — as well as genetically younger epigenomes. And fascinatingly, the both of these findings appear to bolster the hypothesis that the secret to anti-aging treatments could lie in early development.
