- Dr Sergei Paylian became obsessed with studying and reversing the aging process after seeing the funeral of his young, pretty neighbor in Tbilisi, Georgia
- His company, Bioquark, works with biological extracts called bioquantines, which incorporate material from other regenerative species such as frogs
- Bioquantines will be used in conjunction with stem cells, laser and nerve stimulation in an effort to bring 'living cadavers' back to life
- The trials are set to take place in Latin America on brain dead patients to renew the body's ability to breathe and the heart to beat on its own
- Others in the more mainstream scientific and medical community have said 'the probability of that working is next to zero'
- Dr Paylian believes reprogramming cells to return to their younger, healthier states will be the future of medicine
Sergei
Paylian was only 14 years old when he was horrified by the death of his
young, attractive neighbor in Tbilisi, Georgia. As was the local Soviet
custom at the time, her open coffin was carried through the street to
the sound of music as a shocked teenage Sergei looked on, confronted for
the first time with the issue of his own mortality.
It sparked a lifelong obsession with aging – and how to reverse it.
Now, standing in his neat Florida
laboratory that looks more like a dentist’s office, the 66-year-old
scientist is explaining how a lifetime of research has culminated in a
purified extract he calls bioquantines, 'combinatorial biologics'
incorporating other species such as frogs and, in the future, sharks
that he believes is the key to curing diseases – and even death.
When
injected into humans, he claims, the bioquantines find their way to
diseased or damaged cells and help restore them to a healthier state.
The
company Dr Paylian founded, Bioquark, is part of a broader project
called ReAnima – which is ‘exploring the potential of cutting edge
biomedical technology for human neuro-regeneration and
neuro-reanimation.’
He is on the
international advisory board of ReAnima, which is already preparing to
conduct experimental treatments in Latin America of ‘living cadavers,’
patients who have experienced complete and irreversible loss of brain
function, or brain death. The procedure involves harvesting stem cells
from the patient’s own blood and injecting them back into their body;
injecting bioquantines into the patient’s spinal cord; and performing 15
days of laser and median nerve stimulation, monitoring the patients
using MRI scans.
The initial goal is to
re-start the body’s ability to, unaided, pump the heart and breathe; no
one is expecting the treatment to immediately reanimate the patients so
that they’re jumping off the bed - but the project aims to lay the
groundwork for future, further developments that can enhance levels of
consciousness and recovery.
