An experimental vaccine successfully eliminated aging cells from the bodies of mice, helping to prolong the rodents’ lives and reverse some signs of age-related disease.

The researchers say the experiment is a step on the road to a similar vaccine for humans, but could it really work?

“I think the data was extremely strong… I think it’s a really good proof-of-principle,” Paul Robbins, a professor of biochemistry, molecular biology and biophysics and an associate director of the Institute on the Biology of Aging and Metabolism at the University of Minnesota, said of the mouse study. In theory, the same approach would work in humans.
