Lifegen is a range of products developed by Biocyte, based on the principles of nutrigenomics and epigenetics. These emerging sciences enable us to understand how nutrients interact with our genome, providing valuable insights for optimal health and longevity. Lifegen is at the forefront of this scientific revolution, with products carefully formulated to target specific needs.
Each product in the Lifegen range has been designed with the interactions between nutrients and genes in mind. By studying these relationships, nutrigenomics offers the means for personalized nutritional intervention. Lifegen uses this knowledge to develop products that modulate gene expression in a way that is beneficial to health.
The Lifegen range capitalizes on advances in epigenetics, notably through the inclusion of quercetin, a flavonoid with promising epigenetic properties. Unlike genetics, which studies modifications at the DNA sequence level, epigenetics focuses on changes in gene expression without modifying the DNA sequence. In this context, quercetin plays a significant role in modulating gene expression.
Quercetin acts on various epigenetic pathways, notably by modulating the activity of enzymes such as histone deacetylases (HDACs) and histone acetyltransferases (HATs). These enzymes are crucial for regulating chromatin structure, thus influencing the accessibility of the transcription machinery to gene promoters. Through this mechanism, quercetin can regulate the expression of genes associated with key biological functions such as the inflammatoryresponse, the cell cycle and apoptosis.
In products from the Lifegen range, quercetin is incorporated for its ability to act as an epigenetic modulator. Its inclusion makes it possible to target several cell signaling pathways such as oxidative stress, DNA repair and inflammation. This offers a multi-targeted approach to improving cellular health and potentially increasing longevity.
The inclusion of quercetin in the Lifegen range raises important clinical implications. It offers a potentially effective strategy for the prevention and complementary treatment of various pathologies linked to age or environmental stress. In addition, it paves the way for future clinical studies to evaluate the efficacy of epigenetic modulation in a variety of therapeutic contexts.
The range is vast, targeting various aspects of human well-being:
