"this is not just a church thing...it's a community thing." but the question now for olive branch baptist -- which still owns the property, is how to keep this burial ground regularly maintained? the town of batesburg- leesville has asked the church to come up with a plan by march -- or risk of daily fines. church members say their concern is not having the money and resources -- to keep provided about 4-thousand dollars in servicee to help with the cemetery's recent cleanup -- mayo clinic researchers say

"we see a health improvement in a number of tissues. we think a very important tissue is the heart. it seems like the heart was able to maintain its youthful performance so it's very stress resistant." so how do dr.

remove those damaged cells from mice? they inject a drug into the animals. and they say the drug seems to have no negative side effects.

"removing senescent cells may also have an important anti-cancer effect." so how long before clinical trials for humans? dr. van deursen says they could only be a few years away. "if a clinical trial turns out to be successful and safe, i think perhaps the sky is the limit." that was chris yu reporting. dr. van deursen says the research began seven years ago. and although progress has been slow and gradual, he is excited
