New drugs for pharmacological extension of replicative life span in normal and progeroid cells

Remedies to extend life span Two drugs were discovered that can extend the life spans of normally aged human cells and thus potentially slow human aging. The anti-aging drugs were identified using a novel method that screens drugs across a two-dimensional endpoint space of senescence-associated gala...
