MadSci Network: General Biology |
I have read ID: 922503943.Gb (in relation to growth hormones vs the question of aging) and wished to bring to your attention a study that has been conducted by North Dakota State University (Longevity Report 33). In this report they have stated that Growth Hormone (GH) treated mice had a greater longevity (93% after 13 weeks as opposed to 39% non-GH treated). They state that 18 GH treated mice were alive after 19weeks whilst the others had expired. Could you please inform me of your opinion on this study as I have read Madsci on numerous occasions and would like your opinion. Please note: I am not connected in anyway with this experiment but am interested in the subject of longevity and the aging process.
