Description
GDF11ย (Growth Differentiation Factor 11) is aย naturally occurring proteinย in theย TGF-ฮฒ (Transforming Growth Factor-beta) superfamily. It plays a key role inย cellular differentiation, tissue regeneration, and age-related repair mechanisms. Initially active during embryonic development, GDF11 has gained attention in longevity research due to its potential toย rejuvenate aging tissues, particularly in theย brain, skeletal muscle, and cardiovascular system.
- Biological Effects:
- Stimulatesย neurogenesisย and brain plasticity
- Enhancesย skeletal muscle repairย in aged organisms
- Mayย reverse age-related cardiac hypertrophy
- Mechanism:
GDF11 acts through theย Smad signaling pathway, influencing gene transcription involved in tissue homeostasis and regeneration.
