Very pleased to share the publication of my PhD research in Aging Cell, where we show that the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin protects from DNA damage in human immune cells.

Rapamycin Exerts Its Geroprotective Effects in the Ageing Human Immune System by Enhancing Resilience Against DNA Damage
Using in vitro DNA damage assays in human T cells, ex vivo profiling of aged immune subsets and a small placebo-controlled in vivo study, authors show that low-dose rapamycin, a potent life-extending...

New research, led by Dr Loren Kell, has demonstrated for the first time that rapamycin can reduce DNA damage in immune cells, a hallmark of ageing. Targeting this DNA damage could be a key way to rejuvenate immune systems in older people.

The drug rapamycin has been linked to a longer life and we're starting to understand how it might have this effect
