I'm not sure how well this translates to humans.

I doubt they would do these experiments unless, one way or another, they also apply to us. They are not trying to make mice live longer :)

Actually, studies in mice don't always pan out to humans. There are flaws in mouse studies and sometimes the results in humans are wildly different. But mice are cheap, bread readily, and are a great starting point for laboratory tests.
