Researchers at the University of Washington's Dog Aging Project gave rapamycin to 16 dogs and imaged their hearts.
"It started to function better. It started to look like a more youthful
heart," said Matt Kaeberlein, co-director of the Dog Aging Project, who
has presented this research at conferences but hasn't yet published it.
Those dogs took rapamycin for only 10 weeks.
