Scientists reverse aging: cells of an 80-year-old person rejuvenated by more than 60 years
Scientists from Germany have made a breakthrough in aging research: they turned the blood cells of an 80-year-old person into neural stem cells whose molecular age turned out to be less than 20 years. In effect, the researchers managed to reverse more than six decades of cellular aging. The discovery could help in the study of Alzheimer's disease and the development of future methods for restoring nervous tissue.
