Podcast: The science of staying young
Manage episode 442916901 series 2159061
While countless supplements and products promise to reverse aging without scientific proof, the real secret to defying age may be found in the study of epigenetics. This field of study explores how our behaviours and environment can lead to changes that influence how our genes function.
Dr Anne Hahn from the Zuryn laboratory has recently discovered a mechanism in the DNA of genes that regulates how disease-causing mutations are inherited. The findings offer a promising therapeutic avenue to stop the onset of heritable and age-related diseases.
In this informative interview Dr Hahn explains:
Why the old belief that DNA mutations inevitably lead to disease might not be true
The important part mitochondria play in cell ageing
The lifestyle factors the can influence our genetic make-up
Why epigenetic modification is important in age-related diseases
