Autophagy Upregulation in Bone Marrow Stromal Cells Extends Life in Mice – Fight Aging!

Autophagy, the process that recycles damaged and excess proteins in cells, has been shown to improve health and slow aging in various laboratory species. Researchers have found that targeted upregulation of autophagy in bone marrow progenitor cell populations in aged mice not only slows bone mineral density loss but also extends lifespan and reduces inflammation. This rejuvenation of bone marrow stromal cells through autophagy enhancement holds promise for combating age-related bone loss and improving overall health in middle-aged mice.
