MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 25, 2020 \/PRNewswire\/ \u2014 A study<\/a> published in the respected Nature Communications journal highlights the promise of technology being developed by Turn Biotechnologies to treat age-related health conditions.<\/p>\n

The study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine found that old human cells can be induced into a more youthful and vigorous state when they are exposed to a rejuvenating treatment that triggers the limited expression of a group of proteins known as Yamanaka factors, which are important to embryonic development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
