Chemically Induced Reprogramming to Reverse Cellular Aging

The fictional idea of restoring youthful DNA in mammals may be transitioning to reality. Scientists have identified, “six chemical cocktails, which, in less than a week and without compromising cellular identity, restore a youthful genome-wide transcript profile and reverse transcriptomic age. Thus, rejuvenation by age reversal can be achieved, not only by genetic, but also chemical means.”
