There will be an injection that can rejuvenate 50% and reduce gray hair

A new injection promises to dramatically slow down the ageing process. It is hoped to be a breakthrough in longevity, with the potential to improve joints, the heart, vision and maintain muscle mass, according to the Express .

It can even help reduce graying of your hair and prevent age-related hair loss.

A new injection promises to dramatically reduce the signs of aging.

The product from Singaporean startup VVB Bio works by targeting a cytokine protein called IL-11.

We discovered this cytokine by accident. In an experiment, we noticed that as mice and humans age, the amount of this protein interleukin 11, or IL-11, increases.

He said this protein causes the following harmful effects:

  • Causes disease in tissues
  • Causes fibrosis
  • Causes the kidneys to stop functioning properly.
  • Causes hearing and vision to stop working
  • Causes gray hair and hair loss.

All of these are signs of aging, which usually happens as you get older.

This is where a new injection comes in that aims to delete the IL11 gene.

Sebastian Schäfer, co-founder of VVB Bio, explains that they are currently creating an injectable antibody treatment.

You can get one shot for six months, he said. The antibodies bind to IL-11 and neutralize it. Thereby eliminating all its harmful effects in the body.

Scientists explain that the injection will improve your health and give you a significantly younger biological age.

This expert notes that there is a difference between chronological age and biological age. For example, a 47-year-old who smokes, drinks, overeats and rarely gets enough sleep may have a biological age of 57. But a 47-year-old who eats carrots, gets enough sleep and runs every day, would have a biological age of 42.

Based on this, the researchers conducted experiments on mice divided into two groups: one group had the IL11 gene deleted through genetic modification and the other group received a placebo.

They found that the genetically modified mice aged less than half as fast as normal mice. That's a huge reduction.

Furthermore, the authors suggest that the results may apply to humans.

“We found that the IL-11-related things were the same in mice and humans,” Cook said. “We believe that in humans, inhibiting the IL-11 gene would produce all the same effects. Less age-related obesity, better retention of muscle mass, better joints, a healthier heart, better eyesight, less gray hair and less hair loss.

The manufacturers expect production of the new drug to begin next year, with clinical trials beginning in 2025. Depending on the results, the anti-aging antibody treatment for IL-11 could be commercialized around the end of the decade.
