The body has natural processes by which it removes lipofuscin from cells, involving detergent-like compounds. However, the rate of removal falls farther and farther behind the rate of accumulation. (Even a 3-month-old fetus may have some lipofuscin in some of its nerve cells!) The cholinergic drugs Deaner® and centrophenoxine have been experimentally shown in animals […]

Lipofuscin pigment appears very early in life. It has been observed by some scientists in fetal nerve cells, though others have not found it in children under 10. In the cerebral cortex of rats, Dr. Kenneth R. Brizzee and his co-workers found a ten-fold increase in the amount of pigment in aged rats compared to […]
