Fr centuries, explrers have searched fr the funtain f yuth. Surprisingly, the secret t staying yung might have been within us all alng. Amr, a scientist, and clleagues have discvered that T cells can be reprgrammed t fight aging, s t speak.
Given the right genetic changes, these white bld cells can attack anther grup f cells knwn as senescent (衰老的) cells, which are thught t be respnsible fr many f the diseases we fight with later in life. Senescent cells are thse that stp replicating (再生). As we age, they build up in ur bdies, resulting in sme diseases.
While several existing drugs can eliminate these cells, many must be taken repeatedly ver time. As an alternative, Amr and clleagues turned t a "living" drug called CAR (chimeric antigen receptr) T cells.
They discvered CAR T cells culd be used t rid f senescent cells in mice. As a result, the mice ended up living healthier lives. They had lwer bdy weight, imprved metablism (新陈代谢), and increased physical activity. All these came withut any tissue damage r side effects.
Perhaps the greatest pwer f CAR T cells is their lng-lasting effects. The team fund that just ne dse (一剂) at a yung age can have lifelng effects. That single treatment can prtect against cnditins that cmmnly ccur later in life.
"T cells have the ability t develp memry and exist in yur bdy fr really lng perids, which is very different frm a chemical drug," Amr explained.
Amr's lab is nw investigating whether CAR T cells let mice live nt nly healthier but als lnger. If s, sciety will be ne step clser t the funtain f yuth.
32. What discvery have scientists made abut T cells and aging?
A . T cells cause aging. B . T cells can fight aging. C . Senescent cells are T cells. D . Aging is caused by genetic changes.
33. What des the underlined wrd "eliminate" in paragraph 3 mean?
A . Sustain. B . Remve. C . Cue. D . Plish.
34. Which effect f CAR T cells n yung mice des the text emphasize?
A . Shrt-term activity increase. B . Immediate weight reductin. C . Lifelng health enhancement. D . Temprary metablic imprvement.
35. What is Amr's attitude t the future f emplying CAR T cells?
A . Dubtful. B . Unclear. C . Critical. D . Optimistic.
