Prior studies show that disrupting somatotropic axis components extends laboratory mouse lifespan, but confounding effects of additional genes and hormones obscure the specific impact of growth hormone (GH) on longevity. We address this issue by using mice with a specific knockout of the GH gene, revealing that disrupting GH alone substantially increases lifespan. The longevity effects are accompanied by altered metabolic fuel utilization, directly linking GH action to aging mechanisms.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
