Anti-aging
Genes Found
China's Chongqing Southwestern Hospital recently
announced its discovery of six genes that can be used to combat
diseases related to advancing age, such as cancer, coronary
heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes. One of these genes
can curb or even kill cancer cells, while another one slows
down the aging process of useful cells. This research was endorsed
and financed by the China National Fund for Natural Science
High-tech Exploration Project. The hospital is to undertake
further research into the functions of each gene.
