Lysergic acid diethylamide reverses aging- and neurodegeneration-associated brain transcriptional programs
bioRxiv May 29, 2026 Peer reviewed DOI: 10.64898/2026.05.26.727809
Summary
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) has the potential to reverse brain transcriptional programs associated with aging and neurodegeneration. This suggests that LSD may play a role in addressing age-related cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases by altering gene expression in the brain.
