What we say:
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Natural product-derived Lifespan extension therapy: EHHM, a natural product found in Livistona chinensis, activates autophagy and extends lifespan via up regulation of its target gene
From Significance of the study to Therapeutic opportunity:
This study suggests, for the first time, that EHHM (E-[6′-(5′-hydroxypentyl) tricosyl]-4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamate), by increasing the expression of its target gene, it may: (1) enhance autophagy, (2) promote leanness; (3) increase insulin sensitivity; (4) improve motor function; (5) increase resistance to oxidative stress; (6) alleviate ageing features; and (7) promote longevity( fig.1).

Figure 1. EHHM, found in Livistona Chinensis, enhances autophagy, increases insulin sensitivity and promotes longevity via up regulation of its target gene
Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “EHHM or its analogues or EHHM plus any of the known anti-ageing compounds” may be used to increase the life span of an individual.
