Biologists have deduced the formula of immortality Bashny.Net

A group of researchers from the United States thinks that they have found the genetic levers, which have an important influence on the purification of cells from defective proteins. They claim that this is the way that can stop our biological clock for decades.





Scientists report that with age, our body cells is going more and more damaged proteins, but still did not know whether this process is a response to the decreased functionality of the body.

The main chemical element of each cell — a protein that has a very short life cycle. End, toxic proteins, it is necessary to remove from the cells of the body as quickly as possible. The intracellular mechanism that regulates their output over time, working properly, and this leads to a decrease of the functionality of the main organs — heart, liver, brain. And in turn leads to old age.





Scientists were able to change the gene by a protein that collects in the cells for its best utilization. In experiments took part genetically modified mice, the liver cells which were more effective than cells from mice of the other group, no changes of this protein.

Professor, Department of gerontology, University of Newcastle Thomas von Skilnik (Thomas von Zglinicki), said that the results were very interesting.
