American scientists have made a breakthrough in the fight against aging. A new drug, successfully tested on dogs, demonstrates the ability to prolong life and slow down age-related changes at the cellular level. According to ABC7 TV channel, clinical trials on humans are planned as early as 2025, aimed at rejuvenating the cells of the human body, writes tvzvezda.ru.
The mechanism of action of the drug is to slow down the aging of stem cells, which permts them to maintain their function for a longer period. The effectiveness of the drug was confirmed during an experiment on two dogs with serious diseases. A German shepherd in the final stages of cancer was restored to health, and an elderly dog regained the ability to walk.
Next year, the research will continue with a larger group of dogs and will also begin trials in humans with osteoarthritis.
