Method to derive blood vessel cells from skin cells suggests ways to slow aging. – Brinkwire
Salk scientists have used skin cells called fibroblasts from young and old patients to successfully create blood vessels cells that retain their molecular markers of age. The team’s approach, described in the journal eLife on September 8, 2020, revealed clues as to why blood vessels tend to become leaky and hardened with aging, and lets researchers identify new molecular targets to potentially slow aging in vascular cells.
“The vasculature is extremely important for aging but its impact has bee…
