Increased hyaluronan by naked mole-rat HAS2 extends lifespan in mice

Z. Zhang, X. Tian, J. Y. Lu, K. Boit, J. Ablaeva, F. T. Zakusilo, S. Emmrich, D. Firsanov, E. Rydkina, S. A. Biashad, Q. Lu, A. Tyshkovskiy, V. N. Gladyshev, S. Horvath, A. Seluanov, V. Gorbunova

This study shows that overexpressing the naked mole-rat HAS2 gene in mice increases hyaluronan levels, reduces inflammation, and extends lifespan and healthspan.
