About Us
Our Mission
Toward the realization of a society of health and longevity
We aim to realize a society of health and longevity through the development of innovative and breakthrough medicines for people around the world who are unable to fully benefit from or have access to current treatments.
Background
Toward a super-aging society
In 2022, the global aging rate is projected to be 10% and 16% by 2050. The elderly population will be 1.5 billion.
In 2050, the aging rate in Japan is projected to reach 38%
In order for each and every one of us to live a healthy, fulfilling, and vibrant life, it is desirable not only to have a long life, but also to extend healthy longevity and realize a healthy society with longevity.
Paradigm Shift in Research on Healthy Longevity and Aging
In the past decade, a paradigm shift in research on healthy longevity and aging has been taking place.
The mechanisms of aging are being elucidated, and methods to control aging are being developed.
Focus on cellular and
immune aging
It has become clear that Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, atherosclerosis, chronic nephropathy, and other diseases are caused by cellular aging.
We are engaged in drug discovery research based on the elucidation of the mechanisms of action caused by aging immune cells.
Genomic instability
Telomere reduciton
Epigenetic changes
Decreased proteostasis
Decreased nutrient sensing function
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Cellular senescence
Depletion of stem cells
Delayed intercellular communication
