Stanford Study: Infusing Aged Surgery Patients with Young Plasma Reduces Inflammation

In a first proof of principle human trial, researchers demonstrated that plasma proteins from young donors lower inflammatory markers in elderly people who underwent surgery.

Clinical Trials

Model: Male Sprague Dawley rats
Dosage: 1.5 mg/kg body or rapamycin injected 3 times a week for 4 weeks

The longevity-associated drug rapamycin diminishes muscle size and strength in young rats when compared to untreated but calorically restricted young rats. 

Skin &amp; Muscle

Model: 16-month-old female C57BL/6 mice 
Dosage: 60 mg/kg/day of ABT-263 dissolved in drinking water for 7 days on, 7 days off, and 7 days on again

A senolytic compound and anti-cancer drug called ABT-263 accelerates ovarian aging in aged mice, suggesting it promotes infertility. 

Others

Model: 5xFAD mice
Dosage: 5-µL sprayed into each nostril at concentrations of 30 × 109/100 µL once weekly for two weeks

Exploring a Nasal Spray that Might Delay Alzheimer’s Progression by Years

Researchers use nano-sized vesicles derived from neural stem cells to preserve cognition as well as reduce brain inflammation and plaque buildup in an Alzheimer’s mouse model.

Brain &amp; Neurons

Model: 24-month-old female Sprague Dawley rats
Dosage: Undisclosed doses of pig-derived exosomes were injected into the rats every-other-day for eight days starting at day 1 and recommencing at days 68, 181, 280, and 377

Nano-Sized Vesicle Infusions Break Rat Lifespan Record

Nano-sized vesicles called exosomes derived from pig blood plasma significantly extended rat lifespan and broke the record for the longest-living rat.
