Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating cause of memory loss and cognitive decline, for which no curative treatment is available.

Virginia Tech researchers have shown that memory loss in aging may be reversible. Using CRISPR tools, they corrected molecular disruptions in the hippocampus and amygdala, restoring memory in older ...

Life runs on information. In living systems, that information takes two main forms: the genome and the epigenome. The genome stays mostly stable. The epigenome, however, constantly shifts, shaped by ...

As our understanding of aging evolves, so do the tools doctors use to slow it down—or even reverse it. Age-reversal techniques are no longer confined to futuristic fantasies; they are already being ...

Gene therapy treatments promise to slow aging and improve biological function Minicircle offers treatments that are so far not permitted in U.S. Founder Mac Davis has seen investments from Sam Altman ...

Cirrus’ lead program is a novel AAV gene therapy designed to restore IRAK-M, a central regulator of the eye’s immune homeostasis, so as to prevent AMD progression and preserve central vision IRAK-M ...

New research suggests that exercise may not just make us feel younger—it could actually slow or even reverse the body’s molecular clock. By looking at DNA markers of aging, scientists found that ...
