Will people be able to survive for 200 years now? Such ‘secret’ found from whale, which will increase the lifespan of humans

Can Humans Live 200 Years? In the quest to increase the lifespan of humans, scientists have now discovered one of the largest creatures of the sea, Bowhead. whaleA big clue has been found from. This whale can live for about 200 years. The surprising thing is that despite such a long life, it remains safe from diseases to a great extent.

Now scientists believe that the secret of its longevity lies in a special protein May be hidden in, which can also help in increasing the lifespan of humans.

What does the new study say?

Research published in Nature, led by scientists at the University of Rochester, suggests that a protein called CIRBP (Cold-Inducible RNA-Binding Protein) may be the key to this mystery. This protein plays an important role in repairing serious damage to DNA, especially double-strand breaks. In simple language, as we age, our DNA gets damaged. If the ability to cure it is strong, then diseases will reduce and lifespan can increase.

What is special about whale?

This protein was found in bowhead whale about 100 times more than other organisms. This is believed to be the reason why his body remains healthy for a long time.

What happened in the lab?

When scientists inserted this protein into human cells and fruit fly cells, DNA repair improved and the lifespan of the fruit fly also increased. This indicates that this protein can play an important role in increasing age.

What is the connection with cold?

Bowhead whales live in icy Arctic waters. Research has found that cold temperatures further activate this protein (CIRBP), that is, there may be a connection between cold and longevity.

What does it mean for humans?

Scientists are now trying to understand how to increase this protein in humans – through lifestyle changes (like bathing in cold water) or in the future through medicines… However, research is still in the early stages and a human lifespan of 200 years is currently only a possibility, not a reality.

Why is this discovery important?

This study shows that the real secret of increasing lifespan may lie in DNA repair. Even a little protein can make a big difference. ‘Healthy ageing’ may be possible in the future.
