Boosting a protective protein slows aging frailty and strengthens bones in mice
Scientists increased levels of the anti-inflammatory protein tristetraprolin (TTP) in 22‑month‑old mice, improving grip strength, mobility, endurance, energy, and bone health while reducing frailty; results suggest potential future therapies for aging but human applications are not imminent, with further work planned on neuroinflammation and dementia.
