Both compounds similarly reduced aging hallmarks (AMPK, Nrf2, COX IV1) and inflammation, yet only Nano-PSO delayed disease progression. This discordance challenges the assumption that anti-aging interventions are therapeutically equivalent and suggests unknown mechanistic differences critical for prion disease treatment.
