Discovery of genes that reset epigenetic age (Horvath clock) | David Sinclair

Dr. Shinya Yamanaka discovered a group of proteins that can reprogram differentiated (mature) cells into pluripotent stem cells. These proteins, now called Yamanaka factors, are highly expressed in embryonic stem cells in mice and humans. Their short-term expression can ameliorate cellular and physiological hallmarks of aging and prolong lifespan by resetting the Horvath epigenomic clock. In this clip, Dr. David Sinclair talks about the discovery of genes that can reset the Horvath epigenomic clock.
