Cellular reprogramming can reverse the aging that leads to a decline in the activities and functions of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs). This is something that scientists have known for a while. But what they had not figured out is which molecular mechanisms are responsible for this reversal. A study released today in STEM CELLS appears to have solved this mystery. It not only enhances the knowledge of MSC aging and associated diseases, but also provides insight into developing pharmacological strategies to reduce or reverse the aging process.
The research team, made up of scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, relied on cellular reprogramming — a commonly used approach to reverse cell aging — to establish a genetically identical young and old cell model for this study. “While agreeing with previous findings in MSC rejuvenation by cellular reprogramming, our study goes further to provide insight into how reprogrammed MSCs are regulated molecularly to ameliorate the cellular hallmarks of aging,” explained lead investigator, Wan-Ju Li, Ph.D., a faculty member in the Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation and the Department of Biomedical Engineering.

well they better get moving. i’m not getting any younger :)
More at the source.
You had better have more savings. When it is finally rolled out, it would be very expensive.
Hope they don’t get to control it until after the PIAPS, the godless vile demonic Botoxian, Soros and a few others are well on their way to being gourmet word food.
You and I both...
Clever.
:)
Looks like about 5 photos slowly morphed, to approximate a lifetime?
When it finally rolls out, I’ll have had all the weight loss I wanted by then..at the expense of worms and bacteria :)
The day they cure aging and people live for hundreds of years if not longer, is the day hell comes to earth. No thanks, and I’m no spring chicken myself. 500 years of Pelosi, Hillary, Biden, noooo way.
..... Bout time they came up with something .... I’m tired of being an Old Fart .....
That is incredible. That has to be computer generated, is it? I can’t imagine this woman having her photo taken for so long.
>>> They can’t cure cancer, he!! they can’t even cure the common cold.....I seriously doubt they’re going to successfully stop the aging process anytime close to the foreseeable future.
Umm... Don’t be so sure about that...
Rev 9:6
And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
Anti-aging technology still won’t fix rude, ugly and stupid but it will create a new breed of filthy rich scientists.
Did they demonstrate that the reprogrammed cells actually live longer in a living specimen? Could/would the regen. cells be more active than non regen cell and crowd them out? Why would cells involved in embryogenesis of organs also be involved in cellular senility? A very interesting conundrum.
Another great Zonie. Great issues tackled in 22 minutes. How did they do that before CGI?
How did TZ tackle such human issues in 22 minutes in black and white without CGI?
Yes, I understand why this was demoted, but there is the possibility anyway, that this is big.
Or not.
