HealthThe relative risk of many diseases increases with age. Individuals age at different rates, and while some might show a surprising level of health and fitness in their eight decades, others might be troubled by age-related diseases already in their late thirties. An increasing body of evidence suggests glycans play a role at establishing an individual’s risk of having poor 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.
