Researchers here report on a measure of brain aging constructed from expression levels of a variety of genes, noting that it appears to show the greatest changes in white matter rather than grey matter. They use this measure to assess the results of interventions shown to slow aging in old mice, calorie restriction and plasma transfer from young mice, finding that these two treatments have quite different mechanistic outcomes in the brain, slowing brain aging in quite different ways. This suggests that (a) there are multiple ways to intervene, and (b) there are ways to improve on present capabilities.
