Why hasn't that billionaire mong who takes 60 supplements a day to prolong his life simply made a plasmid capable of inserting telomerase-producing genes into his DNA?Any biofag wants to chime in? Could it work, in theory?
because telomere length is a poor predictor of longevity in humans
>>16163537We do have the genes, the telomeres get shortened probably because of the lack of arsenic.
>>16163537I'm sure artificially extending your telomeres cannot possibly have any negative repercussions.https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/long-telomeres-may-heighten-cancer-risks

>>1616353790% of cancers have active telomerase, and mice have longer telomeres than humans yet only live 3-5 years in captivity. There is no evidence that it directly increases lifespan, merely the observation that older humans tend to have longer telomeres.

>>16163537>taking ideas from crabssounds like courting cancer.
>>16163537>telomerasebecause it doesn't work, like at all. telomeres being linked to aging is a scam research. trannies even got a Nobel prize for it. they spent a fuck ton of money on it as well. tell you all you know about the fraud science.
