Scientists in China may have found a way to potentially reverse the aging process via a technique that can be described as “vampiric.”

A group of Chinese researchers has discovered a “vampire” technique, involving taking young blood and injecting it into older mice to make them live longer. A new study, led by researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, found that exposure to old blood could accelerate the ageing of various organs and cell types in young mice, and that injecting young...

Researchers associated a loss of LMNB1 expression, which they linked to myeloid neoplasms, with changes in nuclear structure and myeloid-based cell fate.

By Ty and Charlene Bollinger If you are using the principles of natural health to create a vibrant, thriving life for you and for your family, then you know that both gut health and a strong immune system are key. Once you understand the relationship between the two, then achieving perfect health and preventing disease can be easy! […]

Age-related declines in stem cell function can be reversed by a 24-hour fast, according to a new study from MIT. Biologists found fasting dramatically improves stem cells’ ability to regenerate, in both aged and young mice.

Almost one third of babies born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, or HLHS, die from heart failure before their first birthday. By uncovering cellular processes that drive heart failure in these young patients, a new study may hold the answers to

In proof-of-concept experiments, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have successfully cultivated human muscle stem cells capable of renewing themselves and repairing muscle tissue damage in mice, potentially advancing efforts to treat muscle injuries and muscle-wasting disorders in people.
