Infusion of young blood recharges brains of old mice

Something -- or some things -- in the blood of young mice has the ability to restore mental capabilities in old mice, a new study by Stanford University School of Medicine investigators has found.


If the same goes for humans, it could spell a new paradigm for recharging our aging brains, and it might mean new therapeutic approaches for treating dementias such as Alzheimer's disease.

Okay, this can be a good thing but it can also be a bad thing. The first thing I thought about was some old person kidnapping a young person for their blood.  Yikes.
