Glycans and Cardiovascular Disease: Understanding Modifiable Risk Factors and the Power of Lifestyle Choices with Prof. Samia Mora
It is a widely known fact that cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in both men and women, which puts an urgency on gaining a better understanding of them. One interesting lens to look at CVDs is through glycans. However, in order to do so, we need to uncover the answer to which came first, the chicken or the egg? Do glycans change in response to the disease? Or are they actively involved in disease development? To figure this out, we welcomed Prof. S...

The Past, Present and Future of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation with Prof. Hudson Freeze
Glycosylation, a biological process vital to life, is likely something you’ve never heard of before. It involves the addition of sugar molecules, known as glycans, to proteins and lipids which enable a number of crucial physiological functions, from immune regulation to cell-to-cell communication. This episode explores what happens when genetic mutations disrupt the glycosylation pathway as well as the detective work and collaboration required to diagnose and treat the resulting conditions.

Understanding Biological Age and its Clinical Applications with Dr Peter Joshi
The concept of biological age might sound like a new notion, but it’s something researchers have been looking at for 35 years. A person’s biological age can tell us more about them than chronological age because it includes genetics, lifestyle and environmental factors. Since it’s such an individualised metric, it’s important to find a reliable way of measuring it. In the episode, Rina and her guest Dr Peter Joshi describe 11 different biological ageing clocks, the research behind them and wh...

The Link between IgG Glycans, Aging, and Disease: A Discussion with Dr. Olga Zaytseva on Glycosylation Regulation
How much control do we have over our health? The study of epigenetics made us aware of the remarkable malleability of our phenotype, prompting closer investigation on how lifestyle and environment impact our health and longevity. In this context, glycans - a class of historically understudied biological polymers may hold the key to a better understanding of the interplay between genetic and epigenetic factors contributing to disease development. Olga Zaytseva is a post-doctoral researcher at ...

Glycans and the Immune System: Understanding Immune Regulation with Prof. Salomé Pinho
Glycans have a great capacity to fine-tune the inflammatory response and often determine how successfully the immune system distinguishes between friend and foe. While cancer cells build a glycan shield to hide from immune surveillance, pathogens can mimic our glycans in order to evade immune detection and perpetuate infection. Salomé Pinho is the Immunology, Cancer and GlycoMedicine Group leader at the Institute for Research and Innovation in Health at the University of Porto, her research ...
