What did studies of vanadyl sulfate find?

3

Studies of vanadyl sulfate measured 3 outcomes; the most studied are senescent-cell death (1 study), protein misfolding and aggregation (1) and lifespan (1).

Senescent-cell death

upin mouse cells1

1 study
  1. Vanadyl sulfate induces senescent-cell death in mouse cells (senescent cells).

    “VS inactivates reactive cysteines and promotes disulfide bond formation in senescent cells, leading to protein misfolding, aggregation and ultimately cell death.”

Mineral supplement extends lifespan in male mice

Older mice given vanadyl sulfate in drinking water for 13 weeks had better hanging endurance and less fat accumulation than controls.Older mice given vanadyl sulfate in drinking water for 13 weeks had better hanging endurance and less fat accumulation than controls.
