THE AGELESS MAN

THE AGELESS MAN / Episode 15 – iPS Cells: A Time Machine

山中伸弥教授が
2006年にiPS細胞を発見し、ノーベル賞を受賞してから
Twenty years have already passed.

Meanwhile, Japan

In the same field of cell medicine
Furthermore, two Nobel laureatesIt has produced [something].

2016
東大 大隅良典教授 オートファジー

2025
阪大 坂口志文教授 制御性T細胞

But

These two technologies don't generate as much buzz as iPS cells.

iPS cells still dominate the market.

Why?

There isn't just one reason.

But I think...

It's the naming.

iPS cells.

Officially

induced pluripotent steroid cells
= induced pluripotent stem cells

Professor Yamanaka deliberately

I changed it to a lowercase "i".

at that time

Apple Inc.
iPod
iPhone
iPad

I went along with that trend.

Even though he is a professor at Kyoto University

They're good at it.

Understand the trends and win with your name.

It's a strategy.

Humans

Approximately 300 types / 60 trillion cellsIt is made of.

But originally

A single fertilized egg.

It splits and differentiates

muscle

nerves
skin
Internal organs

Create everything.

The fertilized egg is the ultimate pluripotent cell.

So

What if you could reset your current cells?

From there

New eyes
New bone
New nerves

Broken parts can be replaced.

The person who made that idea a reality was...

These are iPS cells.

iPS cells

• Ability to self-replicate
• Differentiation ability

Both are very high.

The risk of developing cancer is also being overcome.

And now

iPS exosomes

Cells

A signal to "repair it"They are releasing it.

Grow up
Differentiate yourself
Repair it.

That information

It is transmitted as exosomes.

This

iPS cell-derived culture supernatant

“設計図だけ”取り出したものだ。

I

Administer this.

To be honest.

I didn't feel anything.

But

This is a "seed".

It takes effect with a time delay.

Old cells are renewed
The damaged parts will be repaired.

“Returning to a body that is built correctly.

I am now

I rode in a time machine called iPS cells.

My destination is myself from 10 years ago.

AGELESS NOTE

エクソソームの本質

エクソソームの本質は細胞ではない。

It is information.

What is rejuvenation?

Instead of replacing cells
“It's a "rewrite of the design."

AGELESS MAN: Redesigning Aging

Aging is not something that can be stopped.

It's something that needs to be rewritten.

Deactivating the aging program

*The treatments described in this blog were determined based on the diagnosis of multiple specialist physicians, not on the patient's own wishes, taking into account the patient's BMI of 27, blood pressure of 180/120, fatty liver, pre-diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and chronic generalized pain.

AGELESS Editor-in-Chief / 5Star Medical Club CEO

Age is just a number. It's not a limit. Medicine is moving beyond simply curing diseases. The next challenge for humanity is the end of aging itself. Infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, cancer. Humanity has fought against "causes of death" until now. But from now on, it will be an era of challenging the "root cause that produces causes of death." That is aging. A future where organs are created from iPS cells, a future where consciousness is transferred to another body. These will eventually become reality. But I am betting not on a dream 50 years from now, but on a revolution that can be started this very moment. Aging is not time. It is the "order to age" that cells receive. If we can block that order—aging will not be fate, but a choice. I call this idea Biohacking. "All living things must grow old"—that's not science. It's a misconception. In nature, there are organisms that do not age. There are organisms that actually exist that begin to rejuvenate at a certain age and continue to live by repeating aging and regeneration. There is no reason why humanity should be the exception. Human evolution no longer occurs in terms of tens of thousands of years; it occurs in terms of half-century intervals. We have already expanded our physical capabilities. We operate cars as if they were extensions of our own bodies, use AI, and integrate with technology. So now it is time to upgrade biology itself. I conceived the AGELESS program for those who reject the common program of aging, and established the "5 Star Medical Club," which provides information on advanced medical treatments and member support based on requests from affiliated medical institutions. The 5 Star Medical Club is not a medical institution itself, but a membership club that, at the request of each affiliated clinic, provides health management support for members, coordinates medical appointments, and offers accompanying support by medical case workers. The final decision regarding medical treatment and diagnosis is the responsibility of each medical institution. In the AGELESS web magazine, I will be sharing cutting-edge academia, innovative medicine, and my own process of rebelling against aging as an AGELESS MAN. This is not science fiction. This is not the future. The revolution has already begun.
