Residents of Saransk warned the lack of which protein causes aging

Saranchan warned that with age in the brain decreases the level of the protein menin, which is responsible for metabolism. Experiments on mice have shown that if this protein becomes smaller, then inflammation increases and signs of aging appear.

The decrease in menine disrupts the production of D-serine, a substance important for learning and memory. When the protein was returned to old mice, their skin, bones, memory improved, and life became longer.

Scientists will conduct further experiments to prove effectiveness in humans. In a small study in older adults, D-serine improved only one test score.
