They employed a delivery system using adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9)—a harmless virus modified to carry genetic material into cells. This allowed mice to continue producing the protein long-term after just one treatment.Gee, what could go wrong?
To: Red Badger
* Mice treated with Klotho protein lived up to 20% longer than untreated mice, which would be like extending human life from 80 to 96 years Mice aren't people.

” Discovered in the 1990s, research indicates that klotho proteins may strengthen cognitive functions: with elevated klotho levels linked to prolonged lifespan and enhanced brain health. “

Female mice developed unrelated health problems (ulcerative dermatitis and anal bleeding) that prevented complete lifespan analysis in this sex. -- Uh huh. Unrelated.
The dual injection approach used would be challenging to implement clinically. -- "Don't move. This brain injection won't hurt a bit."
Sample sizes for some analyses were small (n=3-4 for some histological assessments). -- If n=3-4 was good enough for COVID, it's good enough for the Fountain of Youth.

Thanks, I’ll quit feeding protein to the rats.

I thought this was Klotho.

What’s the name of the plant? My gardener friends could plant it.

Interesting... Wiki suggests that there has been some limited primate testing and that this does translate up from mice, although the novel part of this approach is using a benign virus as a delivery vector.
They are also experimenting with LPN (lipids, fats) as a membrane soluable delivery system.
The interesting part for me is the novel recoding of the affected gene sequence to turn klotho production on.
Not just an anti-aging treatment... this also has implications for kidney disease and geriatric cognitive impairment.
Color me intrigued.

Yea, baby!
Every 5 years or so, an interview will happen with a lady turning 100 years old. In so many of the interviews, when asked about their longevity, the lady will say: "Every morning, I have bacon."
Then there is this 105 year old woman on Johnny Carson
