BETHESDA, MD. - The question is as old as time: is there any way to slow the aging process Researchers at the National Institutes of Health did report an exciting new clue today as to why some of us age more rapidly than others. CBS News national correspondent Wyatt Andrews reports they found the clue while studying a childhood disease.He is a home-run hitting, bubble-chasing, happy 4-year-old boy. But Zach Pickard also has a rare, genetic age disorder called Progeria - which gives him the look of a 60-year old-man, and a life expectancy of only 10 more years. Learn more about progeria But new research by Dr. Francis Collins, on why these children age so rapidly, is revealing the genetic roots of why aging happens at all. Children like Zach are born with an excess of the cell destroying protein called Progerin. Dr Collins learned we all have small amounts of Progerin and, Progerin has an on switch. More about Dr. Francis Collins We ve learned what the signal is that turns that on in you and me, Dr. Collins said. We didn t know that before. That signal begins on the very tip ends of our chromos
