What is edge peptide therapy?

Edge peptide therapy is a new and promising treatment that targets cellular senescence to promote health and longevity. Cellular senescence refers to when cells stop dividing and enter a state of suspended animation. This build-up of senescent cells contributes to aging and age-related disease.
Edge peptides are short chains of amino acids that selectively induce death of senescent cells while leaving healthy cells unaffected. They help clear the body of these zombie-like senescent cells. Research shows that edge peptides may enhance healthspan and lifespan in animals. Human trials are now underway to translate these findings.

Some key points about edge peptide therapy:

Targets senescent cells: Selectively eliminates senescent cells and avoids harming healthy cells. Reducing senescent cell burden is a promising anti-aging strategy.

Enhances cardiometabolic health: Improves cardiovascular and metabolic parameters in mouse models of natural aging and diabetes.

Extends healthspan: Increases resilience, fitness and physical function in aged mice.

Well-tolerated: Has not shown any observable adverse effects in animal studies so far.

How does it work?

The exact mechanisms are still being unraveled but edge peptides appear to:

Bind to senescent cells via cell surface markers that are uniquely expressed on them

Initiate senescent cell apoptosis and clearance by the immune system

Current status and future directions

First-in-human trial ongoing: Early results show good safety profile so far

Therapeutic effects and optimal dosing being evaluated

Combination therapies being explored - edge peptides plus:
- Senolytics (drugs that target senescent cells)
- NAD boosters
- mTOR inhibitors

Possibility for transformative impact on healthspan and longevity
