A medicine that can prolong the life of cells by one third The aging process is accompanied by changes in the vital activity of cells It is well known that the aging process is accompanied by changes in the vital activity of cells. Accumulated aged cells are the cause of the development of changes at the physiological level.

American biologists have created a medicine that can extend the life of cells by about a third. The results of the research are published in Nature Medicine.

Scientists have invented a drug that fights the consequences of aging in the body of animals. In the future, removing the aging cells from the body, the substance may be used for humans. To do this, specialists will need to conduct many additional experiments.

The new drug scientists tested in mice. In the DNA of the experimental subjects, experts built a special system, with the help of which it was possible to selectively destroy the aging cells. As a result, it was found that this prolonged the life of animals by one third, and also prevented the development of diseases associated with old age.

Later, scientists came up with a method that did not involve interfering with the DNA. They injected cenolithic mice - a mixture of dasatinib and quercetin. The first of the substances kills the old cells, and the second - eliminates inflammation from the action of dasatinib. Experience has shown that the "old age solvent" has reduced the mortality of the test subjects by 65%. Cenolithics not only can eliminate external signs of old age, but also prolong life, experts emphasize..
