Is Estrogen a Longevity Drug? A Glycan Perspective
Vitalia City 2024 · 25 Feb 2024 · 20:45
Nikolina Lauc examines whether estrogen functions as a longevity drug through the lens of glycan biology at Vitalia City 2024, covering how sugar molecules attached to proteins, glycans, change with age and how estrogen appears to influence that process. She walks through what glycan-based aging markers suggest about estrogen's broader role in healthy aging beyond its reproductive functions. The talk applies a specific molecular biomarker lens to a longstanding question in longevity research.
