I can question the dubious "record" of the bible all I like, just like you are free to doubt the Greek myths or the Vedas.
I actually know some of the biology around aging (not completely known of course, but we are getting close). As it turns out, cancer cells (of all things, am I right?) don't age, they just divide indefinitely forever so long as they have the resources to do so. These are human cancer cells, clearly, human cells might have the potential still for much longer life spans. And that is in the physics of today.
It is interesting. For whatever reason, a few isolated creatures in certain environments, (often in a symbiotic relationship with other creatures apparently, which seems to help) do seem to have a main feature of aging beat. The biological aspect. Of course there is also the factor nature itself, how the sun affects us, the air and water, gravity, etc etc.
It makes sense that if the very state and nature itself changed, then the processes like transcription and etc would also tend to change.
I notice key features of things that relate to DNA all of course are totally dependent on physics. Examples
Amino acids... "The key elements of an amino acid are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, though other elements are found in the side-chains of certain amino acids.....
The carbon atom next to the carboxyl group is called the α–carbon and amino acids with a side-chain bonded to this carbon are referred to as alpha amino acids."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acids
"A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. "
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond
Naturally all these things involve the forces and laws we now have.
It may be possible for all we know, that certain tweaks could be used to result in very old ages for man. Whether they used embryos, or blood from young people, or animal cells, or whatever..I suspect it would be gross and immoral. But I digress..
