俄罗斯科学家研发有望让人活到120岁的“长寿药” 发布日期:2014-11-27 来源:dailymail
俄罗斯科学家正在测试一种新的“长寿药”,可延缓衰老开始的时间,有望让人活到120岁。
据科学家们介绍,线粒体是细胞产生能量的部分,可以引发衰老。他们正在使用一种新型抗氧化剂,以影响线粒体。莫斯科国立大学的研究员马克西姆·斯古拉乔夫(Maxim Skulachev)博士说道,线粒体是导致心脏病发作、阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森等疾病的元凶。 科学家们已经在老鼠、鱼和狗身上身上进行了测验,发现许多老化疾病发展缓慢得多。虽然药物并没有显著增加寿命,但可以延迟老化的发生。“如果事实证明疾病发展的较为缓慢,我们通过线粒体来对抗衰老的想法就是正确的。” 斯古拉乔夫以东非地区以长寿闻名且对癌症有显著免疫力的裸鼢鼠为例,证明抗衰老药物是可行的。“我不相信人类能够活到800岁。最有可能的就是当我们能活120岁的时候,一些新的致命疾病也会出现。好比癌症,当古人死亡年龄比我们现在年轻得多的时候,并没有这种疾病。”他告诉《莫斯科共青团报》说,“我们现实的目标是将人类寿命延长到120岁,并且抗衰老药物在技术上也是可能的。”

[size=1.2em]It sounds like something from a science fiction film, but a pill to counter the ageing process could become a reality. [size=1.2em]Scientists in Russia are testing a new formula, which they claim can delay the start of the ageing process.

Scientists are working on a pill to counter ageing that would allow people to live to 120. They are testing a new formula on rats, mice, fish and dogs, which they claim can delay the ageing process
[size=1.2em]Researcher Dr Maxim Skulachev, from the Moscow State University project, said: 'A lot of aging diseases developed much slower.' [size=1.2em]The scientists are using a 'new type of antioxidant', which they hope will impact on on the
[size=1.2em]'The mitochondria are to be blamed for heart attacks, they are linked to diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's,' he said.
Dr Maxim Skulachev, from the Moscow State University said if successful, ''t will be possible to postpone old age'
[size=1.2em]He pointed to the naked mole-rat of east Africa renowned for longevity and evidently immune to cancer. [size=1.2em]A realistic goal was to aim for a life span for humans of 120, and anti-ageing medication was 'technically possible', he told Moskovsky Komsomolets newspaper. [size=1.2em]'I don't believe we will be able to live to 800,' he said. [size=1.2em]'Most probably, some new disease will emerge, let's say, a typical disease for a 120-year-old. [size=1.2em]'That was the case with cancer, which was a rare disease when ancient people died much younger.' [size=1.2em]The Russian tests have not led to an significant life span increase, but delayed the onset of ageing, he said. [size=1.2em]'If it turns out that diseases develop more slowly, our idea to fight aging through mitochondria is the right one, added Dr Skulachev, who has been working to perfect his treatment for decades.
