Telomir-Zn: a preclinical study about a metal-modulating compound’s effects on vision and aging markers in animal and cell models, inviting readers to assess translational potential.

Telomir-Zn improves vision, aging markers in zebrafish
Key Takeaways
  • Telomir-Zn improved visual function and retinal-layer thicknesses in a zebrafish model of retinal degeneration.
  • Telomir-Zn lowered oxidative stress markers and increased telomere content toward healthy levels in treated fish.
  • In human retinal pigment epithelial cells, the compound reduced copper-induced calcium disruption and cellular stress in a dose-dependent manner.
