"Kidney Protein Injection Enhances Monkey Brain Function"
A study published in Nature Aging found that a single injection of the klotho protein led to modest improvements in cognitive function in older monkeys, with effects lasting for two weeks. Klotho, a protein produced by the kidney, has been linked to health and lifespan. The protein represents a promising avenue for researching the rejuvenation of brain function in older adults, as cognitive decline from aging is a pressing biomedical problem. The study's findings suggest that klotho injections could potentially improve working memory in humans, although further research is needed to determine optimal dosing and long-term effects.
