University of Queensland researchers have found an injection of a specific blood factor can replicate the benefits of exercise in the brain. They've discovered that platelets secrete a protein, exerkine CXCL4/Platelet factor 4 or PF4, that rejuvenates neurons in aged mice in a similar way to physical exercise. This protein, which is released from platelets after exercise, results in regenerative and cognitive improvements when injected into aged mice.

Scientists at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the University of Queensland in Australia found that PF4, a protein, helped old mice recover the sharpness of middle age.

Researchers say they may have figured out how to reverse brain aging by decades in an 'amazing' scientific breakthrough.

OLEAN — The Tri-County Arts Council has announced signups are available for its remaining summer and fall classes.

A platelet factor joins the list of blood components that may have anti-ageing effects. A platelet factor joins the list of blood components that may have anti-ageing effects.
