J147- a neuroprotective compound that might also reverse aging (in mice)
Looks like a promising neuroprotective molecule, J147, is back in the news and I was wondering if anyone in our community has tried it or critiqued the articles. For those who don't know about it, J147 is an orally active neurotrophic compound that was shown to reverse Alzheimer's disease in mice models a few years ago and so far seems pretty safe.
Recent studies also appear to show that it can reverse aging in mice making "old mice look like they were young, based on physiological parameters." Additionally, it can already be purchased on alibaba.com or cellagentech.com, so there is potential for a future group buy.
