scitechdaily.com Unlocking Immortality: T Cells as the New Fountain of Youth

Scientists have discovered that CAR T cells, traditionally used in cancer treatment, can be engineered to fight aging by eliminating senescent cells, offering a promising single-dose, lifelong treatment against aging-related diseases. The fountain of youth has eluded explorers for ages. It turns

Unlocking Immortality: T Cells as the New Fountain of Youth

> Researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, have discovered that T cells can be genetically modified to target and eliminate senescent cells, which contribute to aging and related diseases. Their findings in mice show that a single treatment with CAR T cells can lead to improved health outcomes, including reduced body weight and enhanced metabolism, with the potential for lifelong benefits.

    Trailblazing Blood Test: Detecting the Silent, Lethal Shadows of Pancreatic Cancer

    > Project to develop a blood-based test to identify patients with early pancreatic cancer receives PanKind funding boost.

    The test is based on a critical WEHI discovery of proteins that can identify early pancreatic cancer in patients. Currently, there are no early-detection biomarkers for the disease.

    Researchers hope the test could, in the future, be used by general practitioners and oncologists as a tool for early intervention to enable more effective treatment options for patients.
