GLYCATION

AGING, A DISEASE? The WHO plans to consider aging as a pathology, a revolution!

Targeting the mechanisms of aging, such as glycation, rather than just the diseases they cause would open up new avenues in longevity medicine.

Using the WHO disease classification criteria, researchers conclude that aging meets all of these criteria and can therefore be considered a disease (1).

Certainly, chronological age does not kill – we do not die of old age – but it is a health problem that opens the way to many fatal pathologies.

Considering aging as a disease, as the WHO would consider it, would lead to targeting the biological mechanisms of aging, such as glycation, but also genetic and environmental factors… and not just the diseases they cause.

This paradigm shift would open the way to a real revolution in longevity medicine:

– No more medicine in silos where specialties ignore each other,
– Reassignment of certain existing molecules to healthy patients,
– Accelerated development of new classes of molecules targeting biological aging such as senotherapeutics.

[Glycation is one of the major causes of aging. Resulting from the fixation of sugars on the proteins constituting the organism, glycation generates toxic compounds that cause cellular aging. Glycation is particularly involved in metabolic disorders, skin aging and cognitive decline.]
