Fields Suggestions v2

Would be glad to see some advanced anti-aging fields in the near future. Further ideas:

  • NAD+ Boosters: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels decline with age, and supplements like nicotinamide riboside (NR) or nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) aim to restore NAD+ levels, supporting cellular health and energy metabolism.

  • Telomerase Activators: Telomeres, the protective caps at the end of chromosomes, shorten with age. Telomerase activators like TA-65 aim to maintain telomere length, potentially slowing down cellular aging.

  • Senolytics - eliminate senescent cells: Senescent cells accumulate with age and contribute to age-related diseases. Senolytic drugs target and eliminate these cells, potentially delaying aging and extending health span.

  • Stem Cell Therapy: Stem cells have the potential to regenerate and repair damaged tissues. Stem cell therapies are being explored for their potential in rejuvenation and extending lifespan.

  • Epigenetic Clocks: Epigenetic clocks measure changes in DNA methylation patterns to estimate biological age. Understanding and modifying these patterns may lead to interventions that slow down aging.

  • Caloric Restriction Mimetics: Compounds like resveratrol, metformin, and rapamycin mimic the effects of caloric restriction, which has been shown to extend lifespan in various organisms.
