TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a technique for extracting aging biomarkers existing in a circulatory system to induce reverse aging of a specific organ.

Aging is a process in which the structure and function of the body gradually deteriorates as the age increases and the sensitivity to disease and death increases drastically.

The aging index, which represents the aging phenomenon, has been mainly focused on analyzing the indicators for aging diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and dementia, and studying the mechanism. Therefore, there have been developed anti-aging techniques for delaying aging by treating inhibitors and the like of substances inducing aging, and researches on methods for predicting and diagnosing aging have been widely tried.

Korean Patent Application No. 10-2009-0058459, for example, discloses an aging diagnostic method for evaluating protein expression as an index and a biomarker for aging diagnosis. Korean Patent Application No. 10-2013-0031124 discloses a method for diagnosing muscle aging using protein And the like. However, the conventional diagnostic method as described above is difficult to obtain a consistent result as a diagnostic method using unstable proteins in the surrounding environment such as temperature and pH.

The production of miRNA is made into a stem-loop-structured precursor micorRNA (pre-microRNA) by Drosha (RNase III type enzyme) and is transferred to the cytoplasm and cleaved by Dicer to produce mature microRNA [Kim VN et al ., Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol. 2005. 05; 6 (5): 376-385).
