Foreign media: Chinese scientists have genetically modified human mesenchymal progenitor cells, enhanced FOXO3 activity, and cultivated anti-aging stem cells. These cells can resist age-related stress and damage.
In a 44-week experiment, researchers injected old rhesus monkeys every two weeks via intravenous injection. The results showed that the monkeys' memory retention improved, brain atrophy was slowed, cognitive function was enhanced, and no serious side effects were observed.
The study also found that more than half of the 61 tissues in 10 physiological systems showed "reversal of aging," including reversal of gene expression patterns and reduction of aging cell markers. This is considered an important breakthrough in the field of anti-aging, but it has also sparked controversy: supporters believe the experiment proves that aging is reversible, while skeptics warn of risks such as immune reactions, tumors, and lack of clinical validation.
