What they say: Introduction:
A recent study from the Department of Genetics, Paul F. Glenn Laboratories for the Biological Mechanisms of Aging Harvard Medical School, Boston,USA; and Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, The University of New South Wales, Australia shows that Sirtuin-2 induces the checkpoint kinase BubR1 to increase lifespan. This study was published in the 1 July 2014 issue of the journal “EMBO” by Prof Sinclair, North BJ, and others.
What we say:
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Natural product Lifespan extension therapy: Methyl 3,5-dicaffeoyl quinate (MDQ), found in Kalopanax pictus, Salicornia herbacea L., Aster oharai and Solidago virga-aurea var. gigantean,increases life span via up-regulation of its target gene BubR1.
From Research Findings to Therapeutic Opportunity:
This study suggests a natural product-based life extension therapy. Methyl 3,5-dicaffeoyl quinate (MDQ), by increasing the expression of its target gene, it may increase the expression of BuBR1. Thereby, it may: (1) delay diseases of aging; (2) slow down aging; and (3) prolong median life span. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing“Methyl 3,5-dicaffeoyl quinate (MDQ) or its analogues” may be used to extend the lifespan of an individual.

Methyl 3,5-dicaffeoyl quinate (MDQ), found in Castor-aralia (kalopanax-pictus), among others, as indicated below, extends mammalian life span via up regulation of BuBR1
