$Approach: Macro science. Palette: D, bold color field. Extreme close-up photograph of taurine crystals, long translucent needle-like prisms with sharp faceted edges, bundled and crossing in a loose cluster. They rest on a saturated tomato-red matte acrylic surface. The camera is a low three-quarter angle with a shallow depth of field, so the front crystals are razor sharp and the back ones melt into soft red blur. A hard, warm key light from the upper left makes the facets glint white and throws crisp, thin red-tinted shadows. A single crystal tip in the foreground catches a tiny edge of electric green (#00e676) light refracted through the glass-like prism. The mood is bold, tense and curious, which suits a paradox in the findings. The image has no text, no labels, and no blue cast.$

Taurin raste s godinama – zašto je veća doza poboljšala zdravlje starijih miševa?

BY NOVA CHEN · 25. lis 2026.

Studija objavljena u časopisu *Cell* otkriva da razine taurina u krvi rastu kako kod ljudi, tako i kod miševa, a dodatni unos taurina produžio je životni vijek i smanjio smrtnost od sepse kod starijih životinja. Istraživanje je također predložilo mehanizam kroz koji makrofagi otpuštaju taurin kao signal opasnosti, što aktivira NLRP3 inflammasom, dok povratak taurina u stanicu ublažava alarm. Ljudski podaci su samo promatrački, a rad ne testira doze suplementacije kod ljudi.
