ABC7 Exclusive: New study reveals promising results for age reversal pill on dogs
Posted by Montie Adkins in categories: biotech/medical, health
Next trial will be 10 dogs. And human trials for osteo-arthritis in late 2025.
SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) — We’ve all heard the phrase 50 is the new 40″ but what if 90 became the new 40? It may sound like science fiction but authors of a new age reversal study on dogs say it could be closer than you think.
One Suncoast rescue organization was granted permission to use the age reversal pill on two of it’s senior dogs struggling with health issues.

Neural circuit basis of placebo pain relief
Posted by Cecile G. Tamura in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience
A study in @ Nature identifies using mouse models a neural circuit that may underpin pain relief caused by the placebo effect.
Analgesia from the expectation of pain relief is mediated by rostral anterior cingulate cortex neurons that project to the pontine nucleus.
