Taurine extended running time in aging-prone mice

Among 22 aging-prone male mice, those given 1% taurine water from 5 to 10 months of age stayed on a rotating rod longer than controls.Among 22 aging-prone male mice, those given 1% taurine water from 5 to 10 months of age stayed on a rotating rod longer than controls.
