There is an impelling demand to develop novel therapeutics against degenerative disorders. Approximately 30% of people over 80 years of age develop a dementia and 1-3% of those over 65 years have Parkinson’s disease. Over 17 million patients suffer from heart failure, mostly as a consequence of lack of cardiac regeneration after ischemic cardiomyocyte death. After 75 years of age, 30% of individuals undergo age-related macular degeneration, a major cause of irreversible blindness, and 50% develop presbycusis.
