Ageing reversed in mice in groundbreaking studyScientists have managed to reverse the process of ageing in mice, raising questions over whether the same could one day be done for humans.Researchers at Harvard Medical School also found a way to speed up the biological process, suggesting it can be driven “forwards and backwards at will”.The key to this, scientists found, is manipulating the rodents’ epigenomes – which function as an operating system by instructing cells how to interpret and use genetic material.It is easier to tweak the molecules that drive the body’s epigenetic process than to reverse DNA mutations, say researchers, opening up a raft of possibilities in how ageing could one day be treated.The findings, published on Thursday in the scientific journal, Cell, challenge the idea that ageing is the result of genetic mutations that break down our DNA and lead to deterioration.David Sinclair, a professor of genetics in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School... told CNN: “We believe it’s a loss of information — a loss in the cell’s ability to read its original DNA so it forgets how to function — in much the same way an old computer may develop corrupted software. I call it the information theory of ageing.”
