When tissues succumb to disease, aging, infections or cancers they fragment. Fragmenting cells release DNA into our blood stream and with the right tests can be detected. Circulating cell-free DNA (cirDNA) is one of the newest breakthroughs in anti-aging and regenerative medicine. In truth the technology was discovered 70 years ago, but the testing was erratic, and it wasn’t clear how to apply the results to improve health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And now the active focus of research. Some of these technologies, such as diagnosing fetal abnormalities, as been available for a couple of decades. Other diseases, change as heart disease and rare cancers are the newest areas of research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oddly a new study menopausal women have elevated total levels of this cirDNA found in their bodies, and we aren’t certain what that means. Perhaps it is a signal that transitioning through to menopause without hormone therapy is a brief step on the aging accelerator. What this implies is that this new finding will alter the way those tests are interpreted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
