“Low amounts of this hormone has been linked to promoting the aging process (such as hardening of the arteries and the loss of muscle and bone) and higher levels has been associated with better cognitive function in humans and lifespan extension in mice. Meditation, yoga, and exercise are all great ways to combat and negate the unhealthy effects of chronic stress.”

“Because osteocytes can sense changes in bone strain, the investigators proposed that increasing the animals’ body weight activated a biological sensor that communicated with the osteocytes of weight-bearing bones to drive changes in eating behaviors and subsequent weight loss.”

“Having low INSL3 was also associated with reduced sexual function, bone mineral density, and physical activity, as well as increased occurrence of hypertension, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes.”

“His lab also developed a technique for harvesting 5 to 7 times more hematopoietic stem cells from placenta than is currently retrieved from cord blood, a more standard, established source that is used worldwide for a bone-marrow transplant.”

“It improved eye function, bone density, the ratio of different types of immune cells, mitochondrial function in multiple tissues, insulin sensitivity, plasma lipid profile, energy expenditure, and physical activity.”

“Researchers induced periodontal disease in mice by placing ligatures around their teeth, creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth. Then they examined the effects of the disease on the animals' gums, bones, and microglial cells.”
