The article makes it very difficult to follow up because no direct link to the scientific paper is given.

This lapse is unfortunately way too common and puts the author as well as the publisher in an unprofessional light.

Presumably, this is the paper:

http://science.sciencemag.org/content/355/6331/1312

Given the title, you can look up on Google Scholar:

Reverse chronological sort didn't find anything that looked like a follow-up.

I'm not sure why the most cited article couldn't be called a follow-up or at least summary of intention to follow-up.

"A comprehensive concept that connects NAD+ metabolism to the control of aging and longevity in mammals has been proposed, and the stage is now set to test whether these exciting preclinical results can be translated to improve human health."
