This article tells us about rapamycin, which it is a bacterial by-product discovered in soil at Easter Island. This by-product is already used in transplant patients to prevent the common organ rejection. Rapamycin was first tested on mice and scientists found it increases their life and this anti-aging drug is now tested on dogs. The study found that dogs that received the drug showed improved heart functionality, and what is more, it increased dogs lifespan.
It is a very intersting news because it tells you that it is possible to find a way to extend our life. Maybe it remains a lot of time to achieve this goal, but who knows if this drug can improve human lifespan as it did with mice and dogs. Science is the largest field of investigation and, with patience and improvement, can let humans life longer.
