Rejuvenate Bio Reprogrammed Genes to Double Remaining Life of Old Mice
by Brian Wang from NextBigFuture.com on (#68EF0)
Rejuvenate Bio systemically delivered AAVs (gene therapy delivered via altered virus shells), encoding an inducible OSK system, in 124-week-old mice extends the median remaining lifespan by 109% over wild-type controls and enhances several health parameters. Treated mice lived another 18 weeks, on average, while control mice died in nine weeks. This was a doubling of ...
