Mice In Laboratories Unlocking New Secrets of the Fountain of Youth
Mice tend to end up their life being prototypes of medical research. We should note that mice represent 50 percent of the laboratory animals used for experiment and thus the prime source of testing for modern medicine. Recently, a group of research from University of Pittsburgh confirmed that they had found the secret behind a [...]

In a wide range of mammals, caloric restriction has shown significant benefits in delaying or even preventing age-related diseases and aging. Yet, biologists have been struggling to provide a comprehensive explanation behind this magical formula. In a recent study conducted in Sweden, the one enzyme responsible for the health benefit of caloric restriction was revealed [...]

At the Cell & Developmental Biology of the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Professor Nancy Speck’s team finds a particular molecular marker directly related with hematopoietic (blood) stem cells abbreviated as HSCs. The pathway was found in the course of developing an embryo, and this insight adds significant contribution to research in cell-engineering. [...]

2. November 2011
Comments Off
Instead of the differences in the DNA, the inheritance of the changes in the usage of their genes can be a means to pass on the increased span of life from one generation of worms who live long, to the next. A study shows that even if there are no changes in the overall hereditary [...]

The Fountain of Youth is a chimera but the possibility for longer life may be achieved. An article in Thursday’s issue of Scientific Reports states that researchers have created a new drug that can improve the longevity of mice by 44 percent in contrast to those not given the drug. The latter is a synthetic [...]

Recently, US scientists revealed that oncogenes can transform typical cells into stem-alike cells. This does thereby give us new insight on how to better and more safely treat diseases such as cancer and multiple sclerosis. Researchers from three different institutions have been working in collaboration to successfully show that human skin cells can be changed [...]

3. July 2011
Comments Off
As a matter of fact, the field of cryonics intersects substantially with cryobiology. Regardless of their similarities, cryonics activists and anti-cryonics cryobiologists have engaged in an open battle against each other for the past four decades. In an outstanding article written by Mike Darwin in the year 1991 (COLD WAR: The Conflict between Cryonicists and [...]

5. June 2011
Comments Off
Nobel Prize Winning Company thanks to the intellectual support of Elizabeth Blackburn will start to sell a telomere test to the consumers. This test will find out the length of telomere. It is not yet clear if this test will help people to improve their health. Telomere is a stimulating finding of science regarding aging. [...]

18. February 2011
Comments Off
There is much controversy surrounding the use of stem cells for various therapeutic procedures however, perhaps the answer is utilizing adult stem cells rather than the stormy embryonic stem cells. Adult stem cells are quite possibly the future of medicine and in particular they may have a huge role to play in the anti aging [...]
