live forever is the eternal human sleep, so there is some drug can really extend the life of it? 8 United Kingdom by the daily mail reports that the United States scientists found a drug called rapamycin may have to extend the human lifespan of 10 years of magic.
can extend the life of the experimental mice
the prestigious academic journal nature revealed that several scientists from United States almost 2000 is only 20 months old (equivalent to 60 years in human age) of white rats into two groups, a group of food mixed with rapamycinanother group is not added. The results showed that average life expectancy has increased the intake of ADRIAMYCIN containing the Sirolimus rat 14%.
is an immunosuppressant rapamycine, 1975, scientists of the Easter Island, Chile to extract from the ground. Easter Island is considered most mysterious places of the world today, is more than 600 more than a huge statue of the island, suspected that it was left by the extraterrestrial visits Earth.
Sirolimus used to prevent organ transplant rejection occurs, studies have shown that the drug can prolong the life of yeast, Nematode worms, other invertebrates and fruit flies. But this time found effective to extend the lifespan of mammals also is the first time.
before that scientists have found that there are two ways to extend the life of mammals: repair genes and diet reduce fat intake. They suspect Sirolimus has been able to extend the lifespan of mice, because it deceives the body believes that it reduces the consumption of fats.
it is expected that in 10 years correctly modified
while rapamycin can is the longevity of humans have been searching for drugs, but not yet the conduct of clinical trials. Because these drugs interfere with the immune system, increases the likelihood of infection in the body and induction of side effects of cancer, a greater degree of risk, must go through some kind of improvement before that it may be for humans to use.
reported that within 10 years, scientists hope to develop improved rapamycin. The success will be the historical revolution in medical fields, the development of human . society as a whole and are of great importance.
and the University of the State of Texas is responsible for the study of Dr Alan·lichadesen said: I never thought life could find life prolonging drugs, Sirolimus may have this effect.
