This Extraordinary Desert Mouse Defies Aging, and it Could Change Human Longevity

Article excerpt

A protein associated with longevity in humans has recently been found at high concentrations in an extraordinarily long-living mouse. The discovery makes the case for more research into a poorly-understood, potentially gene-determined, metabolic pathway for healthy aging that could help scientists better understand the aging process across mammals. The golden spiny mouse is unusual among […] The post This Extraordinary Desert Mouse Defies Aging, and it Could Change Human Longevity appeared first on Good News Network.
