Scientists Just Made Old Cells Young Again.
2+ mon, 1+ week ago (181+ words) On the latest episode of “The Astounding Pop Mech Show,” Andrew Daniels, Shawn Gorman, and John Gilpatrick discuss some early experiments that suggest aging may be reversible. Could the fountain of youth have existed inside our very cells this whole…...
Scientists Discovered ‘Zombies’ With ‘Immortal’ Body Parts. This Could Redefine What We Think Life Is.
1+ mon, 5+ day ago (742+ words) A “gray zone” form of living could help scientists answer long-held questions about regeneration, aging, and how tissues survive under tough conditions. “One of our first questions was, ‘What types of tissues can do this?’” Jobson says, noting that their…...
Scientists Are Attempting to Reprogram Old Human Cells to Be Young Again
2+ mon, 1+ week ago (248+ words) For the first time ever, scientists are attempting to reverse cellular aging in a living patient. The target: incurable vision loss. The risk: cancer. As we age, so do our cells. But some scientists are wondering if we actually need…...
Your Body Can Beat Death, Says One Harvard Scientist—Because It Could ‘Remember’ How to Be Young
3+ mon, 4+ day ago (1739+ words) What if getting old is fundamentally a problem of information loss? At its core, aging is a dysfunction in the way DNA is read and implemented in cells, says David Sinclair, PhD. And he’s basically putting all his money on…...
Women Live Longer Than Men. Scientists Might Finally Know Why.
10+ mon, 4+ week ago (343+ words) Researchers who analyzed data from zoo animals found that it is not only genetics, but mating pressures that may determine which sex has the longer lifespan. While people are living longer than ever, women almost always have the higher average…...
Scientists Found the Biggest Factor in How Long You’ll Live. There’s Not Much You Can Do About It.
3+ mon, 1+ week ago (206+ words) Genetics were thought to play only a secondary role in determining lifespan—turns out, it’s quite the opposite. The researchers think that extrinsic mortality keeps getting associated with age because of frailty, which causes injuries or infections that often end…...
The ‘Hibernation Gene’ Lives in Your DNA, Studies Show—And Scientists Are Tapping Its Power to Reboot Your Body
3+ mon, 3+ week ago (713+ words) Two new studies suggest humans possess the genetic machinery that bears and bats use for hibernation. Is this the dawn of a new medical frontier? However, according to two studies, both published in Science, the recovery superpowers of hibernating animals…...
A Scientist Says Humans Will Go Backwards in Time Within Just 3 Years
4+ mon, 4+ day ago (670+ words) It'll certainly take some work. Death and taxes—the twin inevitabilities of human life. At least, for the moment. If you ask some of the most prominent futurists in the world, death may not be on that (admittedly short and…...
A New ‘Blue Zone’ May Be Emerging with Wildly Long Life Expectancies
11+ mon, 4+ week ago (404+ words) A region in Finland displays many of the traits shared by “Blue Zones,” where residents live longer, live healthier lifestyles, and embrace living in a community more than other parts of the world. Ostrobothnia in Finland may not yet be…...
Scientists Think We Could ‘Recharge’ Our Cells—And Rewind the Aging Clock
8+ mon, 4+ week ago (252+ words) Mitochondria can lose power like batteries, but they can potentially be regenerated—a promising development than can be used in future treatments. Think of cells as the biological answer to battery-powered electronics. Mitochondria are the batteries that supply them with…...
