Myeloid Metabolism as a New Target for Rejuvenation?-Comments on Restoring Metabolism of Myeloid Cells Reverses Cognitive Decline in Ageing. Nature. 2021 Feb;590(7844):122-128.

Abstract

Research led by Katrin Andreasson suggests that fixing age-induced metabolic defects in myeloid cells would suffice to reverse cognitive impairment and to restore synaptic plasticity to the level of young subjects, at least in mice. This opens up the possibility to develop rejuvenating strategies by targeting immune dysfunction.
