Pig Kidney Transplant and Anti-Aging Program Highlight Recent Developments
NEW YORK, NY - Recent news reports highlight a correction to a scientific article on a pig-to-human kidney transplant and the launch of an ambitious, albeit controversial, anti-aging program. These developments, alongside other news, showcase the rapid pace of advancements in science and technology.
According to a correction published in Nature News (Source 1), an article originally published on November 13, 2025, regarding the physiology and immunology of a pig-to-human decedent kidney xenotransplant, contained several errors in its figure labels. The corrections, which have been made to both the HTML and PDF versions of the article, addressed inaccuracies in the y-axis labels of Fig. 1c and Fig. 1d, as well as the y-axis label of Fig. 2b. The original article was published in Nature on November 13, 2025.
Simultaneously, the news also covers the launch of "Immortals," a $1 million per year anti-aging program spearheaded by fintech founder Bryan Johnson (Source 5). The program promises to reverse aging through Johnson's personal protocol, which includes a dedicated concierge team and BryanAI. The service is limited to only three spots. Johnson's methods, including blood transfusions from his son, have drawn both attention and criticism.
Other news covered in recent reports includes a measles outbreak in Mexico, a shooting at South Carolina State University, and growing concerns about AI safety (Source 4). Additionally, research on a COVID-19 vaccine-related blood-clotting disorder, the resurgence of malware, and the spread of misinformation on social media regarding extreme diets like the carnivore diet, promoted by influencers like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., are also being addressed.
While the pig kidney transplant correction focuses on the meticulous nature of scientific research, the anti-aging program highlights the ongoing quest for longevity. The combination of these stories, alongside others, paints a picture of a world constantly evolving through scientific and technological advancements.
