🧬 Introducing Longevity Vaccines. Building on experience from the Rentosertib program, Insilico’s new research initiative extends its strategy of tackling both disease and biological aging into preventive cell clearing. 🛡️ Combining AI and circular mRNA, the approach aims to equip the body’s own T cells to remove selected aging...

rentosertib was a lung drug that happened to move an aging clock now there's a longevity vaccine program. the pipeline is downstream of a post-hoc analysis and everyone's cool with it

More healthy years mean more chances to learn, begin again and stay close to the people we love. If we can prevent some of the damage of aging, we give people more freedom over their own lives. That is a future worth building.

Biology is getting so cool. Literally reprogramming our meat computers.

Clearing senescent immune cells could protect more than lifespan aging doesn’t spare the eyes. Strong direction.

This is exciting! Fibrious in Lipedema is another market whose upside would be massive. Something like 10 % of all woman are suffering with it. There are no treatments apart from removal surgery, costing thousands $$. It'd be great to test the drugs effectiveness on this disease.

Okay, yeah, when do you plan to roll it out to the clinic and how much will it cost?

So these are just CAAR-T cell therapies?

Today’s guest on the Free Radicals podcast is Michael Ringel, JD PhD, COO Life Biosciences and former Managing Director at Boston Consulting Group. Michael is a leader in longevity and pharma who spent 25+ years advising top pharma companies on their R&D strategy. He is now COO at Life Biosciences where he is bringing the first ever partial epigenetic reprogramming therapy to human clinical trials - a major milestone for the longevity industry. In this episode, we discuss Michael’s insightful paper on why aging is an optimization by evolution, why that means it’s malleable, and how to push the longevity field forward. Michael also sits on the US board of Hevolution Foundation and on the board of the AFAR.

Big Pharma spends billions on cancer drugs that may weaken our body’s natural defenses, but Dr. Soon-Shiong reveals a $10 test could hold the key to longevity—keeping your natural killer cells above 1,000 to fight cancer, infections, and more! Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong unveils a groundbreaking perspective on human health, describing not an invention but an evolution in understanding the body’s defense system. For 450-460 million years, a single cell has enabled mammalian survival against infection, cancer, and trauma: the natural killer (NK) cell. This cell, he argues, forms the foundation of a unifying theory of longevity—a bold claim grounded in decades of research. Soon-Shiong critiques the conventional “whack-a-mole” approach to cancer treatment. He spent years chasing genomic mutations, only to realize that targeting one mutation often spawns another. Big Pharma, he notes, invests billions in mutation-specific drugs, chemotherapy, radiation, and checkpoint inhibitors—treatments that inadvertently suppress the very NK cells critical to life. Even therapies like EPOGEN and NEUPOGEN, designed to support chemotherapy, enable more aggressive treatments that further deplete these vital cells. The solution, he proposes, is startlingly simple: monitor the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) via a $10 CBC test. NK cells, a subset of lymphocytes, must remain above 1,000 per microliter to maintain robust defense against cancer, infections, and sepsis. Radiation, however, often crashes this count, sometimes for over a year, leaving patients vulnerable to metastasis. A recent study highlights this “badscopal” effect, where radiation, while shrinking one tumor, may increase metastatic spread by wiping out NK cells—contrasting the long-touted “abscopal” benefit of systemic tumor reduction. Aging, viral infections, sepsis, and cancer all correlate with declining NK cell levels. Yet, Soon-Shiong emphasizes, these cells possess an innate ability to recognize and destroy transforming cells before they become cancerous. This insight shifts the paradigm from attacking disease to bolstering the body’s natural defenses. The challenge now is to rethink medical approaches. “Follow the science,” Soon-Shiong urges, advocating for data-driven strategies over entrenched agendas. By preserving NK cell counts, we may unlock the secret to long, healthy lives. This isn’t just a theory—it’s a call to transform how we fight disease.

Scientists just figured out how to reverse aging using AI. And this is a massive breakthrough. We can now reprogram any human cell back to age 20. Heart cells, brain cells, skin cells, all reset to their biological prime. And here’s the wildest part…the technology to do this, has already existed since 2012 (it won the Nobel Prize). But the real breakthrough wasn’t possible until this year, when they supercharged it with AI. It’s a wild story. So in 2006, scientists discovered Yamanaka factors. They’re proteins that can basically convert any normal cell into a universal stem cell. Now this was a huge deal, because these stem cells are basically like magic healers. If you have torn muscle tissue, you could inject these stem cells into the area and they will turn into the youthful muscle cells you need. So Yamanaka factors were this insane breakthrough, because they allowed any human to turn any cell you already have into these magic healers. But, there was one big problem… It turns out, the original Yamanaka factors weren’t very good at this stem cell conversion. They could do it, but they just weren’t very reliable. Enter OpenAI...and this is where things get crazy. OpenAI designed a special AI model built specifically to create new proteins. Think of it like ChatGPT but for protein engineering. So they took all the Yamanaka research and asked this new AI to go ham on improving it. And get this… Their version was 50x more effective than the original. They tested it on 50 year old cells and it successfully started repairing 30% of their cells in just 7 days. This is just science fiction…it actually happened. And it sounds crazy, but in a few years, humans will be able to take a shot that will literally reverse the age of their cells.
