In this groundbreaking study, the researchers compared mice that had access to a weighted exercise wheel with mice that had undergone epigenetic reprogramming using Yamanaka factors.
So it seems as though these researchers have uncovered a way that the body is able to turn these anti-aging genes on naturally, at least in muscle tissue. No wonder many call exercise the greatest longevity drug."Ultimately, the team determined that exercise promotes a molecular profile consistent with epigenetic partial programming. That is to say: exercise can mimic aspects of the molecular profile of muscles that have been exposed to Yamanaka factors (thus displaying molecular characteristics of more youthful cells). This beneficial effect of exercise may in part be attributed to the specific actions of Myc in muscle."
