    Immortality is the eternal dream of mankind


    Among many attempts, blood from young animals seems to have a certain effect


    Today, the “Nature” sub-Journal “Nature-Aging” published a paper, revealing to us a major reason behind it


    Specifically, the researchers studied muscle tissue


    In order to study the underlying mechanism, the team separated plasma from the blood of young mice and injected it into older mice with muscle damage to observe their changes


    What kind of ingredient is so magical? Further screening found that if the extracellular vesicles in the plasma were removed, the plasma would suddenly lose its effect and no longer promote muscle repair in elderly mice


    Analysis in these vesicles revealed that they contained an mRNA encoding Klotho protein


    According to their vision, in the future, we may be able to add more specific molecules to these intracellular vesicles, let them locate in different stem cells, and restore the activity of these stem cells
