show signs of premature
aging.
When Yousef injected plasma from people in their late 60s into the bodies
of 3 - month - old
mice — about 20 years old in human terms — the
mice's brains
showed signs of ageing.
Nevertheless, the mutator
mice showed no
signs of premature
aging, such as osteoporosis, balding, or reduced fertility, the team reported online 4 March in Nature Genetics.
But
mice engineered to have hundreds
of times more
of these mutations than average
showed no
signs of premature
aging, indicating that scientists are going to have to look elsewhere for their culprit.
Next, the researchers gave the drug to older
mice that already
showed signs of aging, such as muscle loss.
Now, scientists have
shown that supplementing healthy
mice with NMN — found in foods such as broccoli, avocado, cabbage, and cucumber — can compensate for this loss
of energy production, reducing typical
signs of aging such as gradual weight gain, loss
of insulin sensitivity and declines in physical activity.
Both Grn + / − and Grn − / −
mice develop abnormal behavior and
show signs of amygdala dysfunction beginning around 6 months
of age (Kayasuga et al., 2007; Yin et al., 2010; Ghoshal et al., 2012; Filiano et al., 2013).
