First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study looked at fat tissue from healthy young (18-30) and older (65+) adults to see how blocking a protein called MetAP2 affects aging-related changes in the lab. Researchers measured markers of aging and fat tissue quality. The goal was to understand aging better, not to test a treatment on people.
