FTL1 Iron Protein Reversal Improved Cognitive Aging in Old Mice
A 2025 Nature Aging study found that hippocampal ferritin light chain 1 (FTL1) rose with age in mouse neurons, tracked poorer cognition, and became experimentally reversible in old mice. This is an animal-mechanism result, not a human anti-aging treatment.1 Research Highlights FTL1 rose in aged hippocampus: Western blot data showed higher hippocampal FTL1 in aged …
