Researchers reset 80-year-old donor's cells to epigenetic age under 20 in 100 days
A team of scientists turned blood-cell precursors taken from an 80-year-old donor into neural stem cells whose epigenetic age tested below 20. The findings were reported in the journal Aging Cell. The transformation took place gradually over a period of more than 100 days. The work gives scientists a new means of studying how cells can be rejuvenated. It may also inform future research into ageing and Alzheimer's disease.
