Fountain Of Youth Probably Merits Less Reverence

Fresh insights into aging, asserts that 'The Fountain of Youth' maybe has to do with Buckminsterfullerene, a molecule composed of 60 carbon atoms, forming the shape of geodesic sphere.

Researchers have fresh insights into conflict with aging, asserting that 'The Fountain of Youth' probably has to do with Buckminsterfullerene, a molecule composed of 60 carbon atoms, bounded together in the shape of a geodesic sphere.

The Fountain of Youth is a legendary spring that is known for offering rejuvenation if not eternal life to those who drink its water.

Study Explains 'Fountain of Youth' in the Adult Brain
A 'fountain of youth' that sustains the production of new neurons in the brains of rodents is also believed to be present in the human brain, Duke University Medical Center researchers have found.

"These results of importance in the fields of medicine and toxicology should open the way for the many possible applications of fullerene, including cancer therapy, neurodegenerative disorders and ageing," the article explained.

The researchers published their findings in Biomaterials.
