Exosomes
In the last Faloon's letter update where he describes the Betterhumans charity where he directed the last generous $1mio donation he writes: "It is via this fast-tracked approach that regenerative effects of senolytics, NAD+ infusions and patches, and exosomes have been identified in humans."
Do you have more information on the "exosomes" part? I could not find much on this site.
Thank you.

Hi Albedo. Good question.
You can see more details about this study at the Betterhumans website: http://betterhumans.com/projects.html

Thank you Max. Here is what I found on the site:
Umbilical Cord Plasma Concentrate ("Exosomes") Safety Study in Elderly Subjects. Goal: The question seeking to be answered by this Phase 0 pilot study is whether regular injections of human umbilical cord blood plasma (hUCBP) concentrate is safe to use in elderly patients. Patients will receive one 1 mL intramuscular injections, once a week for 10 weeks, for a total of 10 injections, administered by the Study Physician. We will be testing subjects prior to and following administration of these injections for changes to strength, balance, hearing, eyesight, memory, reaction time, and similar functions, as well as genomic, proteomic, and biochemical biomarkers for wellness (including CBC, lipid and metabolic panels, liver and kidney function panels, and urinalysis), systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, and immune function. Our collaborators may also run epigenetic and telomere-length assays on blood samples from our subjects. Trial was run from February, 2018 until April, 2018, with analysis of test results and follow up blood samples continuing.
