Scientists discover enzyme that could slow part of
the aging process in astronauts -- and the elderly
A recent publication in the FASEB
Journal reveals that a specific enzyme, called 5-lipoxygenase, is plays a
significant role in cell death. The discovery, as a result, allows more
understanding of the aging process. The researchers suggest that inhibition to
this enzyme can prevent or slow down the aging process. This is a good news for
elderly and astronauts.
