Scientists have discovered a possible new type of anti-aging drug in commonly used anti-inflammatory medications.
Scientists have found an unlikely anti-aging drug in the form of an anti-inflammatory drug that is designed to inhibit an inflammatory molecule known as interleukin-11 . The drug was found to extend the lifespan of mice by almost 20 percent. This is a surprising and exciting development, as scientists have been looking for ways to stop or even reverse aging for decades. Typically, inflammation is considered a good thing. It can help our bodies fight off disease and protect us from injury.
Of course, seeing these results in mice does not guarantee that we will see similar results in humans. Clinical trials will need to test the efficiency of this IL-11 blocking anti-aging drugs in humans to see just how effective they are at preventing aging in human cells. If successful, then we could perhaps see these drugs being used in the future to help mitigate the effects of aging, especially those caused by inflammation in the body.
