"A Japanese research team said it developed a vaccine to remove so-called zombie cells that accumulate with age and damage nearby cells, causing aging-related diseases including arterial stiffening."

@Gargron

that seems like a waste of perfectly good genetic material for the Tyrant project. They wouldn't be so sloppy in Raccoon City.

@Gargron I do wonder if that would influence cancer rates.

Christoffer Tallerås :noreg:

@Gargron is this really a vaccine though? Seems like some 5head communication work to make it morw understandable and relevant? 🤔

I'm not complaining though. I'm all for a nice treatment against some of the downsides of getting old 👴

@Gargron CCP is getting interested, hmmm

I wonder what David Sinclair thinks about this (gotta tell him)

@gargron This really reminds me of #AlteredCarbon, a bladerunner like show in the nearish future where the ultra rich basically live forever through expensive medical science while everyone else just tries to get by while aging and eventually dying. Great show, by the way, even if the future it depicts isn't...

@Blort I think this should be accessible to everyone

TMAO has been shown to induce neuronal senescence(these zombie cells). I'm a firm believer that diet and lifestyle choices could wipe out 90% of our current medical problems. Wouldn't want to be the first in line for this.
