Cancer Drug Delays Aging in Mice | Wired Science | Wired.com

Cancer Drug Delays Aging in Mice | Wired Science | Wired.com: "In a potentially landmark study on the biology of aging and how to delay it, a drug gave elderly mice the human equivalent of thirteen extra years of life.

Though the drug is an immune system suppressant that almost certainly won’t have the same effect in humans, the study provides compelling evidence that pharmacologically slowing the process of aging itself may be possible."
