Fountain of Youth? Study Shows Young Blood in Mice Reverses Effects of Aging


A trio of new studies have found that infusing older mice with the blood of younger mice reverses some of the effects of aging. The Washington Post says researchers found dramatic improvements in the muscles and brain of the older mice. The older mice navigated mazes faster and ran on a treadmill for longer than counterparts without blood transfusions. Old blood transfused into younger mice seemed to bring about premature aging.
