Key Facts:
- Reprogrammed CAR T cells can effectively target senescent cells, reducing aging-related health issues in mice.
- A single treatment with these modified T cells offers long-term health benefits, a major advantage over current therapies requiring repeated doses.
- This discovery expands the medical applications of CAR T cells, previously known for treating blood cancers, to potentially combating aging-related diseases.
In addition to CAR T cells and anti-aging potential, here's interesting research about T cells & immunity that may be of interest.
Being new to the forum, I'm Ken Ceder, Executive Director of Science of Light (SOL). My journey in the realm of light began as a pioneer in full-spectrum lighting with Ott Light Systems from 1987 to 1997, leading to the founding of 501(c)(3) nonprofit SOL. Since 2012, our mission has been to combat mal-illumination and promote a ‘balanced spectral diet’ for enhanced health span & longevity.
@4EverYoung do you have a link to the study, that would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
@tamsyn-julie-webber these seem to be preliminary, but expected to be published in Nature Aging T Cells May Be The Living Anti-Aging Elixir - Neuroscience News
@jmurphree Perfect! Thanks kindly! (I'm always on the lookout for information to possibly create articles😀)
