Researchers at Texas A&M have developed a nasal spray that appears to reverse brain aging by calming inflammation and restoring the brain’s energy systems. After just two doses, memory and cognitive function improved for months, raising hopes for future treatments targeting dementia and brain fog.

    The article doesn’t cite, and I’m pretty sure this is the research they are referring to:

    Intranasal Human NSC-Derived EVs Therapy Can Restrain Inflammatory Microglial Transcriptome, and NLRP3 and cGAS-STING Signalling, in Aged

      I wish there was a good middle ground between clickbait pop science and the raw scientific research paper that has more words and acronyms I don’t know than do

        Good KT sites written by scientists exist.

      So… in 20-month-old mice.

      The OP article doesn’t get around to saying they aren’t ready for human trials until you’ve scrolled most of the way down, leading the casual reader to think the participants were human.

        Instead of an illustration of a cosmos human brain shooting lasers out of it, it should have been a cosmos mouse brain instead.
