In vivo transcriptomic profiling using cell encapsulation identifies effector pathways of systemic aging

Patrick Descombes, Jérome Feige, Sylviane Métairon, Omid Mashinchian, Filippo De Franceschi, Nicolas Bouche, Christophe Boss

Sustained exposure to a young systemic environment rejuvenates aged organisms and promotes cellular function. However, due to the intrinsic complexity of tissues it remains challenging to pinpoint niche-independent effects of circulating factors on specifi ...
