Scientists Discover Protein That Causes Aging

Duke NUS Scientists Discover Protein That Causes Aging A research team lead by Anissa A. Widjaja recently published in Nature that inhibiting interleukin-11 extends lifespan by nearly 25% in 75 weeks old mice (55 years of human equivalent age.) Team has discovered the age causing protein. Of course there are more proteins and mechanisms that contribute to aging, however, inflammation is central part of these processes. IL-11 with age start increasing in amount contributing to visceral fat accumulation, muscle wasting, and metabolic irregularities. Let's review the study together.
