'Supermodel Granny' Drug Extends Animal Lifespan by Blocking Interleukin-11, Nature Study Finds
Jul 17, 2024, 04:51 PM
A new drug, referred to as the 'Supermodel granny' drug, has shown promising results in extending the lifespan of animals. The drug works by blocking inflammation, specifically targeting interleukin-11, according to recent research published in Nature. This discovery, which involves interleukin-11 knockout or inhibition, could pave the way for the development of anti-aging drugs, offering a potential breakthrough in lifespan and healthspan expansion. However, questions remain about the short lifespan of control mice used in the study.
