  • Mysteries surround the elusive Greenland shark, the longest-living vertebrate in the world. Researchers have new insight into the unique fish's genetic makeup.

The article from CNN discusses a groundbreaking study on the Greenland shark, known for its exceptional longevity, with some individuals living up to 400 years. Researchers have sequenced the genome of the Greenland shark to understand the genetic basis of its long life. The study, published in the journal "Science," reveals that the Greenland shark's genome contains unique DNA repair mechanisms and genes associated with cancer resistance, which might contribute to its extended lifespan. These findings could have implications for human longevity research, potentially leading to new insights into aging and age-related diseases. The research also highlights the shark's slow metabolism and low body temperature, which might play roles in its longevity. This study not only sheds light on the biology of one of the ocean's most mysterious creatures but also opens avenues for exploring how similar genetic traits could be applied to enhance human healthspan.
