Where this comes from

Abstract

Understanding molecular mechanisms of aging is crucial in efforts to reverse it. In a recent issue of Nature, Florian et al. (2013) report that increasing levels of noncanonical Wnt signaling accompany hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) aging, which can be modulated to functionally rejuvenate HSCs.
