A supporter asks if the Hallmarks of Aging could effectively be substituted for the seven categories of cellular and molecular damage in the SENS platform. The answer is ‘no,’ because the Hallmarks include both too much and too little, and most importantly because the Hallmarks fail to serve as a roadmap toward the biomedical postponement of aging.
Scientists at SENS Research Foundation led by Dr. Tesfahun (Tes) Dessale Admasu have just published their exciting new senolytic strategy to destroy a wider range of senescent cells than has up to now been possible.
We are proud to announce the recent publication by Sharma lab/ApoptoSENS team in the journal Aging describing an improved method for enriching primary NK cells from human peripheral blood and demonstrating the ability of those NK cells to eliminate senescent cells by recapitulating more physiological conditions and potential therapeutic interventions.
SENS Research Foundation’s science writer Michael Rae was interviewed on the Parkinson’s Recovery radio program on “The coming rejuvenation biotechnology revolution for Parkinson’s disease.” In it, they discussed how the cellular and molecular damage of aging most closely involved in Parkinson’s can be removed, replaced, or repaired using rejuvenation biotechnologies, and research underway to make it happen. Read more and listen to the interview to learn how a “damage-repair” approach can prevent, arrest, and eventually consign Parkinson’s to history.
Lower-quality, clickbait-hungry media outlets love sensationalist claims, but one does expect better from the public relations department of an internationally-respected research university. And it was an easy jump from the already-overstated “In First, Aging Stopped in Humans” and “treatments can reverse two processes associated with aging and its illnesses” to saying that a treatment “can reverse …
If you’ve invested in a donor-advised fund (DAF), you know that a key advantage of these funds is that they let you put charitable money aside when you have a jump in earnings, and watch for the best time and project to invest your money. We’re here (along with special guest Herbie Hancock) to tell you that now is that time!
Why is the novel coronavirus so deadly to the elderly? We outline some of the ways in which aging is relevant to diseases like COVID-19 – and how our research may help render future viruses far less dangerous.
Article by Michael Rae about recent and forthcoming regulatory reforms required to support the testing of new therapies for Alzheimer’s and other age-related diseases.
