In today's era, miracles can also be called science. Scientists always surprise us by doing various types of research. Now scientists have claimed to have found a medicine that can increase our lifespan. A team of scientists has made the impossible possible for people who want to live longer.
An experiment was conducted on an old rat and it was found that after taking the drug, the rat became young. Researchers from MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences, Imperial College London and Duke-NUS Medical School of Singapore have claimed that after using this drug in the laboratory, the age of animals can be increased by 25 years. The rats on which this drug has been tested have been named Supermodel.
human trials ongoing
Researchers said that the mice on which this drug was used not only became younger, but also became healthier and stronger than other mice of the same age. Currently it is being used on humans. How does the drug work? Researchers looked at a protein called interleukin-11. Researchers first genetically engineered mice to be unable to produce interleukin-11. After the mice reached 75 weeks of age, they were given regular drugs to eliminate interleukin-11.
