Ageless Youth

I have been watching on the development of stem cell researches, and while the promise of healing and becoming young (again), and keeping young seems within reach, results seem elusive.

Then there was adult stem cell, where stem cells are taken from an adult person's fat extracts, and this gave almost everybody the instant hope of being healthy and youthful once again. Like it isn't long ago that umbilical cords were frozen in time, to be taken out for use when needed, but that the majority of the population in the world doesn't even have their umbilical cords in store.

So adult stem cell becomes the most viable solution.

Now, that dream may already be a reality. I attended a seminar that showed videos of the said beauty products and supplements, and even saw it with my own eyes when 3 volunteers were called up front, and Instantly Ageless was put to use!

Unbelievable?

Similar videos are found in YouTube. You gotta see it to believe it.

And if you want to try it, and any other products, you can get it here.

Can we hear from you? I'm excited, and I'll be waiting.

Till then!

The curious case of selective ageing

IT IS a rare disease, but the mutated gene that causes progeria can develop in healthy people as they age.

And while it does not mean that people will get the disease later in life, “it does mean it’s worth studying to see if there is an overlap between these very rare diseases and what happens in normal ageing”, said Dr Alan Colman, executive director of the Singapore Stem Cell Consortium (SSCC). The Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome causes accelerated ageing in children and develops in one in 4 to 8 million.

At the first Singapore-Germany Stem Cell Symposium yesterday, Dr Colman said the SSCC started  research on this disease six months ago. It used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) — stem cells that are artificially derived from skin cells and share similar characteristics as embryonic stem cells. Using iPSCs sidesteps the ethical dilemma of using embryonic stem cells, and allows scientists to see  changes in the cells at very early stages of human development.

“You have a mutation which is active in every cell in the body but only certain tissues, cell types suffer... Why is it so selective?” asked Dr Colman.

Studying tissues that are not affected could help find remedies for other tissues.

“We’re hoping (the) next six months will be very productive,” said Dr Colman.

As for talent, he said the lifting of restrictions in the United States and more funding would create a more competitive environment. It will not affect the work here but it would make recruitment more difficult.

Last year, A*Star’s SSCC jointly organised two symposiums with the United Kingdom and Israel. It hopes to meet with researchers from Boston and Japan next.
