Scientists hunt for youthful genes in old blood
NCT ID NCT04086589
Summary
This study aims to understand why our internal daily rhythms change as we age. Researchers will collect blood from healthy young and older adults to see how it affects clock-like patterns in lab-grown cells. They hope to find specific genes that could restore a youthful rhythm, which might later be tested in animals.
