Explore the latest insights and research in GlycanAge testing, alongside expert advice and personal journeys that dive into the fascinating intersection of science, lifestyle, and health
HealthChronic kidney failure is one of the most common and debilitating complications of diabetes. Changes in glycosylation of immunoglobulin G (IgG) accompany biological agеing and regulates inflammation in diabetes – a process that participates in kidney function decline. A new study looks at the correlation between kidney function and IgG glycosylation.
HealthIgE glycan composition and specifically sialylation is established as an important regulator of allergic disease.
HealthOver 10 years of research on over 100,000 people condensed in 13 min presentation of Prof Gordan Lauc at the Longevity Leaders Virtual 2020. Check this video for introduction about glycans and their role in ageing and disease.
HealthGlycans play an important role in the course of SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be overlooked when searching for ways to understand and control this new disease. Glycans might become a great biomarker tool to predict disease severity, response to therapy and recovery prognosis.

HealthOne of the key ways to fight any disease, which seems to have slipped our minds, is making our immune system stronger
GlycoscienceThe glycosylation machinery inside the cell’s factories requires the coordinated action of hundreds of different enzymes working together in perfect harmony. If even one of these enzymes is not working properly, that can be a big problem.
HealthDid you know that there are special types of sugar chains, called glycans, that play a crucial role in brain formation? It's true! Read to find out more.
GlycoscienceGlycans are complex sugar molecules that are present on the majority of proteins in the human body. As such, glycans have shown great potential as biomarkers of both biological and chronological ages, as well as various diseases, including cancer and autoimmune diseases.
