Abstract
Aging is a progressive multifaceted functional decline of a biological system. Chronic age-related conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases are leading causes of death worldwide, and they are becoming a pressing problem for our society. To address this global challenge, there is a need for novel, safe, and effective rejuvenation therapies aimed at reversing age-related phenotypes and improving human health. With gene expression being a key determinant of cell identity and function, and in light of recent studies reporting rejuvenation effects through genetic perturbations, we propose an age reversal strategy focused on reprogramming the cell transcriptome to a youthful state. To this end, we suggest using transcriptomic data from primary human cells to predict rejuvenation targets and develop high-throughput aging assays, which can be used in large perturbation screens. We propose neural cells as particularly relevant targets for rejuvenation due to substantial impact of neurodegeneration on human frailty. Of all cell types in the brain, we argue that glutamatergic neurons, neuronal stem cells, and oligodendrocytes represent the most impactful and tractable targets. Lastly, we provide experimental designs for anti-aging reprogramming screens that will likely enable the development of neuronal age reversal therapies, which hold promise for dramatically improving human health.
 
The problem of aging
Aging is a major risk factor for multiple prevalent human diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration, diabetes, and most recently COVID-19 (Fig. 1) (Xu et al. 2021; National Center for Health Statistics 2022). The mortality rate associated with all these diseases increases exponentially with age. Although deaths are the most apparent outcome of age-related diseases, the associated suffering and drop in quality of life also have a significant negative impact on our society (Netuveli et al. 2006). This is especially evident in the elderly suffering from dementia and neurodegenerative movement disorders, which reduce personal autonomy and independence and have no available cure.
