Summary

Reaching active aging makes it important to implement new methods affecting the biological age of a person. Biochemical parameters of a blood test are aging biomarkers that are ones of the most accessible for testing. We know that, with age, there is increase in levels of LDL, triglycerides, homocysteine and other biomarkers relating the body state. Methods of extracorporeal hemocorrection showed good results in this area. For instance, the use of plasmapheresis is very effective during prophylaxis, treatment and rehabilitation after various diseases/injuries. The main effects of plasmapheresis are related to removal of endo- and exotoxins, including products of lipid peroxidation, and to draining effect as a result of a heavy flow of interstitial fluid containing products of pathometabolism into the blood stream within concentration gradient (by "dynamic equilibrium" in concentration of different substances in intracellular, interstitial and intravascular compartments). These effects are also related to release of receptors, their sensitization to their own neurohumoral regulation mechanisms, to insulin, in particular (as consequences, lower glucose tolerance, lower substrate glycation).

Detailed description

Reaching active aging makes it important to implement new methods affecting the biological age of a person. Biochemical parameters of a blood test are aging biomarkers that are ones of the most accessible for testing. We know that, with age, there is increase in levels of LDL, triglycerides, homocysteine and other biomarkers relating the body state. One of the initial approaches of anti-ageing therapy is detoxification, reocorrection and immunocorrection. Methods of extracorporeal hemocorrection showed good results in this area. For instance, the use of plasmapheresis is very effective during prophylaxis, treatment and rehabilitation after various diseases/injuries. The main effects of plasmapheresis are related to removal of endo- and exotoxins, including products of lipid peroxidation, and to draining effect as a result of a heavy flow of interstitial fluid containing products of pathometabolism into the blood stream within concentration gradient (by "dynamic equilibrium" in concentration of different substances in intracellular, interstitial and intravascular compartments). These effects are also related to release of receptors, their sensitization to their own neurohumoral regulation mechanisms, to insulin, in particular (as consequences, lower glucose tolerance, lower substrate glycation). Thus, at this stage, experts assess effectiveness and organize data of existing prevention methods for premature aging and correction of aging biomarkers, as well as develop comprehensive programs for drug-free and pharmacological intervention. Introduction of the body detoxification method based on extracorporeal hemocorrection (developed in FGBU Russian Scientific Center for Medical Rehabilitation and Balneology of Ministry of Health of Russian Federation) may extend the range of effective and safe methods within such programs, as well as lower patients' biological age and, thus, lower risks of developing age-related diseases, decrease number of disability cases, which can contribute to life prolonging and improvement of its quality.
