Longevity Science vs Telomerase Inhibition New Mouse Truths?
In a recent study, chronic telomerase suppression increased median lifespan by 18% in C57BL/6 mice, while tumor incidence fell by 32%. This surprising combination suggests that turning off the enzyme that protects chromosome ends can both delay cancer and add years, challenging the rush to develop "anti-telomerase"
