Happy to share the first manuscript coming out of @epiterna_ ! In this work we examine the association between more than 400 commonly prescribed medications and all-cause mortality risk in half a million participants of the UK Biobank. medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

NEW STUDY: Ocampo Lab publishes reprogramming cocktails that reduce DNA damage & extend lifespan of worms up to 42%. The race is on to test them in humans 🚀

Excited to share our new publication! We previously showed that age reversal can be achieved using transcription factor-based reprogramming. Now, we demonstrate that it can also be done with chemical cocktails to achieve lifespan extension! embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

One of the most promising ways to tackle aging!

0/ It sounds wild, but low-dose Cialis (tadalafil) and Viagra (sildenafil) are both drawing attention for longevity benefits. Recent clinical evidence indicates the use of either correlates to longer survival in men, in addition to their potential for heart health, metabolism, and even brain function. A new retrospective study evaluated the longevity potential of 407 prescription drugs in over 200,000 participants, with both Cialis and Viagra being among the surprising promising hits in men (yet to be evaluated in women, since the retrospective studies only cover existing drug use for established indications). Sildenafil will soon be tested in the NIA’s ITP, the most credible pre-clinical longevity drug testing program in mice.

@ZelarCity's final summit is this weekend and I’m incredibly proud and in awe of what we've co-created over these 6 weeks. We’re bringing together some of the brightest minds pushing the boundaries of what's possible in longevity and we’re thrilled to announce that @geochurch, a true pioneer in genetics and synthetic biology, will be sharing his insights. This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from one of the leading visionaries in the field. Don’t miss it.

You rock!

Our manuscript on the association between prescription medications and all-cause mortality in the UK population was just published in @AgingCell ! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… See thread 👇
