Stanford Researchers Use Electrical Stimulation on Sea Squirts to Mimic Anti-Aging Effects of Exercise
By
Alan Bradley
Summary
Stanford researchers have demonstrated an electricity-based technique on sea squirts that appears to reverse aspects of aging. The method involves applying electrical stimulation to cells, which triggers a process similar to exercise at the cellular level. While the findings are preliminary and based on a marine organism model, they suggest a potential new pathway for anti-aging research that mimics the beneficial effects of physical activity without the exercise itself.
