The Journey to Renewal

The Rejuvenation Process

Six stages of an investigational workflow, guided by clinical partners.

  1. Step 01

    Clinical Partner Review

    A licensed provider reviews whether any sample collection is appropriate and permitted.

  2. Step 02

    Sample Handling

    Cellular material may be isolated and expanded through controlled laboratory workflows.

  3. Step 03

    Research Workflow

    The investigational protocol studies changes in cellular aging markers.

  4. Step 04

    Quality Validation

    Analytical review may include molecular and cellular marker assessment.

  5. Step 05

    Provider-Led Decision

    Any clinical use is determined by independent licensed providers under applicable rules.

  6. Step 06

    Follow-Up Review

    Follow-up information is reviewed as observational data and educational context.

Learn how the investigational workflow is structured for review by qualified clinical partners.

The science behind Neo Prometheus

Four perspectives on cellular aging.

Built on ongoing translational research across cellular biology, epigenetics, metabolism, and immunology.

Research focus

01

Senescent cells

02

DNA methylation

03

Cellular energy

04

Immune signaling

Explore the full science
  1. Senolytics

    Senescent cells accumulate with age and are one area of active longevity research. NovaGen Group studies how cellular programs may be characterized and monitored.

  2. Epigenetics

    DNA methylation patterns are one way researchers study cellular aging. Neo Prometheus Protocol explores epigenetic reprogramming concepts without DNA editing.

  3. Metabolism

    Mitochondrial function changes with age. Research workflows monitor energy-related markers alongside other cellular signals.

  4. Immunology

    Immune signaling is part of the broader cellular aging landscape and remains an important area for preclinical and translational research.
