Bountiful Harvest: A Review of Life Extension Plan Scientific Achievements

2025/02/07

With the rapid development of science and technology, humanity's exploration of life has never ceased. During the 2023-2024 period, we witnessed a series of exciting scientific achievements. These not only made significant progress in fields such as anti-aging, gene editing, organ regeneration, and immunotherapy but also pointed the way for future medical research.

The 2024 World's Top Ten Scientific and Technological Advances Announced, with Significant Achievements in Life Sciences

2025/02/07

Recently, the "2024 China/World Top Ten Scientific and Technological Advances" organized by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering was unveiled. In the list of the world's top ten scientific advancements, breakthroughs in cell and gene technologies stood out, including the first 3D-printed functional human brain tissue, CAR-T therapy, gene editing, Google's new quantum chip, super microscope, and more.

Milestone! World's First Ovarian Dual Activation Technology Assists Patients in Conception

2025/01/15

ecently, a major breakthrough in the field of reproductive health has garnered wide attention. The "ovarian dual activation" technology, collaboratively developed by the Yinfeng Life Sciences Research Institute (referred to as "Yinfeng Life Sciences") and the team of Professor Wang Huiying and Dr. Jin Bo from the Shenzhen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine (referred to as "the hospital"), has achieved another milestone in cryobiomedical technology. Using methods of "cryopreservation + PFC", this technology has helped two patients achieve natural conception, providing new hope for women of childbearing age who are cancer patients, infertile, or of advanced maternal age.

Latest Breakthrough in Xenotransplantation: World's Third Genetically Edited Pig Kidney Transplanted into Human

2025/01/13

Robert Montgomery, the director of the NYU Langone Transplant Institute, stated in an interview, "This gives us more insight into the expectations for clinical trials, which can include patients with relatively good overall health."

Heavyweight! Prof. Gang Zhao, the main committee member of Yinfeng Cryomedicine Specialized Committee, published another article "Advanced Cryopreservation Engineering Strategies - A Critical Step in Utilizing Stem Cell Products".

Cryopreservation is known as the technique of solidifying time, by cooling biological materials (e.g. cells, tissues and organs) to low temperatures with the addition of cryoprotectants (generally -196°C liquid nitrogen preservation), and then rewarming them to normal temperatures (37°C) in an effective manner when needed, at which time the biological samples can still be restored and maintain their activity.

Breaking! U.S. transplants pig kidneys to humans, now surviving for over a month

As we all know, organ transplantation, as the last resort treatment for many end-stage organ diseases, has long been in an objective situation where demand far exceeds supply (organ donation). As a result, many research teams have also put their hopes for a breakthrough in the field of xenotransplantation - trying to make pig hearts, pig kidneys and pig livers work in the human body.

Spinal cord-like tissue transplantation helps paralyzed rats regain motor function

Dai Jianwu, a researcher at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGDB, CAS), and Yannan Zhao, a young researcher, have made a new progress in the study of in vitro fabrication of human spinal cord tissues, which, when transplanted, help to restore motor functions in paralyzed rats. The related study was recently published in Science Advances.

The real-life version of "Avatar" is here! Scientists create human organs with chips

In medical research laboratories, we often see small animals such as mice, rabbits or frogs, which are used as animal models to become experimental, drug-testing or even anatomical objects, and make great sacrifices for human medical research.

Going beyond sci-fi: the human 4S store that makes organ repair possible

When the car traveled to a certain mileage, we need to go to the 4S store to do maintenance to the car, so as to keep the car in a safe state of use. In fact, people and cars are similar, the human body in the process of operation also need maintenance, regenerative medicine "human 4S store", through advanced regenerative medicine technology, to achieve the goal of "where the bad repair where".

Human cryopreservation: the "Everest" of cryonics

Borges, a well-known writer in the 20th century, once said that the essence of human existence is the experience of death over and over again, and "death makes people wise and sad". Therefore, in the history of mankind, people are constantly breaking through themselves, challenging the boundaries of science and technology, the peak of medicine, and the length of human life is constantly extended in the long river of time.

New Breakthroughs! New explorations in skin cryopreservation to help new advances in cryogenic research

The human body is an organic organism composed of cells and complex tissues and organs. When the tissues and organs in the body are damaged or lose their original functions, tissue and organ transplantation can replace the damaged or dysfunctional parts by implanting a part of the tissues and organs from the own body or other individuals.

Boy, 12, hit in car accident, has his head reattached and is now walking on his own.

Suleiman Hassan, a 12-year-old boy from Palestine, had his head "severed" in a car accident that separated the base of his skull from the top of his spine, but the skin was still attached, the Daily Mail and Israel Hayom reported on July 14th. His head was reattached by a group of Israeli doctors after a difficult operation. One month after the operation, the boy is now walking on his own.

Failure is the mother of success! The world's first pig heart-to-human transplant experience brings us one step closer to success

The death of the world's first pig heart transplant recipient is extremely regrettable, and people are full of questions about the cause of his death. According to a report on the University of Maryland website on June 30, the famous medical journal "The Lancet" published a study that revealed the possible reasons for the failure of the world's first genetically modified pig heart transplant.

Sleeping in the frozen soil for 46,000 years! This creature was resurrected by scientists

According to a paper in the latest issue of PLoS Genetics, a small group of nematodes taken from Siberian permafrost "came back to life" after being thawed, and although they only continued to survive for less than a month, they reproduced More than 100 generations of new nematodes were produced. These nematodes are about 46,000 years old, the same age as the woolly mammoth.
