Astaxanthin: A Potential Treatment in Disease and Aging, Lifespan Increase

Huang C, Wen C, Yang M, Li A, Fan C, Gan D, Li Q, Zhao J, Zhu L, Lu D. Astaxanthin Improved the Cognitive Deficits in APP/PS1 Transgenic Mice Via Selective Activation of mTOR. J Neuroimmune Pharmacol. 2021 Sep;16(3):609-619. doi: 10.1007/s11481-020-09953-4. Epub 2020 Sep 18. PMID: 32944864.

In this abstract, it reported that the activation of mTOR enhanced by Astaxanthin was reversed when rapamycin was injected into the mice.

Wondering how this would work for those of us taking Rapamycin?
