Presents a proposal to derive proxy aging-rate measures from physiological and molecular changes shared by mouse interventions, and outlines translation priorities for humans.

Proposing a Novel Set of Proxy Measures of Aging Rate
Key Takeaways
  • Researchers identified 12 candidate aging rate indicators linked to interventions that extend mouse lifespan.
  • Fourteen agents or combinations increased mouse lifespan in Interventions Testing Program studies, often when started in late adulthood.
