  • Patent number: 10886008
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems, media, and methods for applying machine learning to determine the biological age of a sample. A method of using a biological age predictor may comprise: (a) providing data of a sample to the biological age predictor; (b) treating the sample with a substance, thereby generating a treated sample; and (c) providing data of the treated sample to the biological age predictor. The biological age predictor may generate the first biological age and/or the second biological age.

  • Publication number: 20200016233
    Abstract: Methods, pharmaceutical compositions, and kits are provided for treating a subject with an effective amount of an oxytocin receptor (OXTR) agonist and an effective amount of an ALK5 antagonist. In certain aspects, the OXTR agonist may be oxytocin or an oxytocin analog (e.g., a small molecule). The ALK 5 antagonist may be a small molecule, such as 2-(3-(6-Methylpyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1,5-naphthyridine, LY2157299, A 83-01, D 4476, GW 788388, LY 364947, RepSox, SB 431542, SB 505124, SB 525334, or SD 208. In certain aspects, the amounts of the OXTR agonist and ALK5 antagonist may be sufficient to induce muscle regeneration and/or neural cell regeneration in the subject.
