RNA molecule rejuvenates ageing mice by restoring old cells Mice injected with a microRNA molecule lived longer and had fewer markers of ageing, but it’s not yet known if the treatment would work in people.

Injecting RNA molecules into old mice reverses signs of aging, extends lifespan, regrows hair, and preserves physical and mental abilities.

Suppression of epileptic seizures by transcranial activation of K+-selective channelrhodopsin - Nature Communications Optogenetic tools allowing transcranial neural inhibition in treating seizures are limited. This study demonstrates that noninvasive transcranial optogenetic activation of a highly sensitive K + -cond...

Ageing limits stemness and tumorigenesis by reprogramming iron homeostasis - Nature Studies using mouse models of lung adenocarcinoma identify an association between age, iron homeostasis and tumour initiation potential that involves NUPR1 and lipocalin-2.

🧪🕰️ Why Cancer Risk Drops After 80

As we age, stem cells lose their ability to grow–including cancerous growth. A new study links this to older cells acting like they lack iron

Targeting this process might improve lung health & cancer therapies
