Immortality:
I was researching ways to reverse aging, and I found something that might work for immortality. Here's how it works:
First, you take an ordinary cell that's aged 8 years due to normal telomere depletion from cell division. Next, you use CRISPR/Cas9 with guide RNA to find the damaged telomere and replace it with an undamaged one. Then, you temporarily inhibit the functionality of the KAT7 gene, and use modified TERT mRNA to extend the number of telomeres. After that, you test the cells for cancer in a petri dish to ensure that no cancer cells have formed. Finally, you repeat the process every 8 years.
I think that mechanically doing things this way makes sense because it allows us to reapply the solutions to aging-related problems, and it allows other people to test this in a lab and get similar results. Plus, it gives everyone the same ability to be immortal with a reset to the age of every cell in their body every 8 years.
Personally, I would like to live forever, and I'd want others to be able to live forever by their own choosing too. I don't agree with the statement that "everyone has to die eventually" because no one has to die, not even of old age. I view it as a choice to commit suicide.
Using CRISPR/Cas9, humans can force stem cells to cause telomere regeneration. If I'm right about how to use this information, one could attempt to force human physiology to compare telomere lengths and repair the degradation done during cell replication and protein readout by ribosomes.
This is the best non-delusional version of immortality, and it reuses your genetic code. It's also a type of treatment to treat progeria, and testing of CRISPR/Cas9 has been moved up to human trials. Since it's part of the emergent technological change, I thought I should share this with all of you.
I hope that by sharing what I know, it will give a few avenues of thought to explore. I may have missed something and overlooked a vital part, so please listen carefully to your peers and consider their opinions before making any assumptions. It's the reason why I wrote up my notes on immortality in this way.
Even though I know there's a better way of doing the same thing, this is just the best grouping of clupoids I could reasonably present. My botanist uncle pointed out that there's a better tool than CRISPR that might have a higher chance of succeeding, but this is also where automation should be put to good use. The only thing you risk by failing in a lab is a failed experiment or no beneficial results, and you'll just have to try something else.
When you get to the edge of equivalent research, that's when you have to sit down and do all the maths, including mental and fundamentals about genetics and what's possible. We know what the haystack looks like, but we don't know how to replicate just enough of it to make it useful, or what parts of it are useful. In short, it's a long story.
