Clinical strategies and interventions aimed at slowing, stopping, or reversing biological aging processes, often focusing on underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms rather than merely treating age-related diseases. These therapeutics encompass a range of modalities, including hormonal optimization, peptide administration, and targeted cellular senescence interventions. The ultimate goal is to extend healthspan and enhance physiological resilience in aging individuals.
Origin
This term represents the modern evolution of anti-aging medicine, moving beyond basic supplementation and lifestyle advice to incorporate sophisticated biotechnological and pharmacological agents. Its clinical application is rooted in the burgeoning field of geroscience, which seeks to understand the fundamental biology of aging. The concept draws heavily from endocrinology and regenerative medicine principles.
Mechanism
Advanced therapeutics often operate by modulating key aging pathways, such as mTOR signaling, sirtuin activity, or NAD+ metabolism. Hormonal interventions function by restoring youthful endocrine balance, influencing downstream physiological processes across multiple organ systems. These strategies work to maintain cellular integrity, reduce chronic low-grade inflammation, and optimize tissue repair capacity.
