Jellyfish may be holding the reverse aging key

Human quest for reverse aging may lie beneath the Sea in the form of jellyfish. Jellyfishes are poisonous creatures which grows up to one inch of size, jelly fishes don’t have bones , brain, heart, eyes or ears, but it have the ability to move by contracting its muscles the glide through drifts. But amazing ability jellyfishes to regenerate itz tissues amazed scientists this ability of jellyfish was first noticed in 1990s.

Recent studies conducted by Pennsylvania State University on Jelly fishes  notices the fact that these jellyfishes can transform all of itz existing cells into younger cells, Through a process  called transdifferentiation the jellyfish can able to return to its polyp state ( the first stage of the life of a jellyfish) and this process continues in a circular manner making it immortal !

Scientists are studying the biological mechanism of jellyfishes inorder to mimic that process in human beings, Jelly fishes are big hope for the anti ageing studies.
