Telomeres and their relationship to the aging process


Negative aging: The challenge of aging can be summarized as an inefficient repair process of DNA. This is a vital statistic. About thirty years, we began to see and feel the difference in how we look and quality of health we experience. We feel the onset of the aging process, because our genes and DNA repair can not repair the damage to our genes as fast as the damage occurs. This is where negative aging, or what we normally think of as aging actually begins. While this is a natural process can increase the likelihood of aging optimally and as slowly as possible for us, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, maximizing the repair process and reducing DNA damage.

The preogeria (premature aging) and its relationship with Telomeres

From time to time, in films or television programs, will find the story of someone who is aging rapidly. There's even a comedy where the main character has grown so fast that reaches adult size in elementary school. Although it seems science fiction, this disease is real, and we have learned important lessons by studying this rare genetic disease called progeria (or Huitchinson-Gilford progeria because the scientist who discovered it). One of the key factors that cause this disease of genetic origin, is a DNA repair process poor.

This occurs when telomeres ending the ends of chromosomes shorten, limiting the number of times cells can divide before dying.

Progeria is estimated to affect one in 8 million newborns worldwide. As newborns, children with progeria usually appear normal. However, within a year, its growth rate slows, and are much shorter and weigh much less than others their age. So the positive process of aging and is paralyzed before the negative process of aging starts early.

Patients with progeria are born with shortened telomeres, structures shaped bar at the end of a chromosome. These specialized structures are involved in the replication and stability of DNA molecules during cell division. Each time a cell replicates, the telomeres shorten. After many cell divisions, the telomeres become shorter and shorter over time causing the signal for the cell to die. Because patients with progeria cells have short telomeres, this shortens the life of your cells and contributes to its rapidly aging.


Today JEUNESSE has developed a product that favor the production of telomerase, an enzyme that acts directly as telomeres strengthening them making the process of cell reproduction is maintained longer.
