Having an indeterminate life span is by some people considered as a desperate call while others a scientific struggle against time. The Maximum Life Foundation has provided with a new base of knowledge from their research. They have even set an objective of making human life span infinite by as early as by year 2029. Their plan to achieve such marvelous results is yet very blurred to many.

Research has proven that adults’ cells can be regenerated without the route of direct stem cell options. Michael Sieweke, who led a team at the Centre d’immunologie de Marseille Luminy has proven that this is highly plausible. The case was based on the use ex vivo to renew macrophages, which are special cells present in our immune system.

It is possible to transform normal skin cells into so-called induced pluripotent stem or iPS cells. Scripps Research Institute in California discovered new approaches to make this a possibility. The utilization of a mixture of purified proteins with chemical additive could make it possible to create stem cells without the need to use genetic substance for the ‘reprogramming of mice cells’ based on findings from Dr. Sheng Ding.
