Genetics applied to healthy aging becomes a reality with N-GENE
Various studies estimate that genetic factors explain between 20–30% of the variability in lifespan.
In the last decade, personalized medicine has taken giant steps, and today genetics has become an essential tool for healthcare professionals. In this context, N-GENE, a leading platform that enables healthcare professionals to integrate genetics into their practice, has developed a Longevity Genetic Report that translates the complexity of genetics into clear and useful information for preventive medicine. With this new report, doctors and specialists have at their disposal a unique resource that integrates genetics, the biology of aging, and preventive medicine in a single document.
Why is this report innovative?
Aging is not a uniform process: each individual experiences it differently, conditioned by the interaction of genes, environment, and lifestyle. Various studies estimate that genetic factors explain between 20–30% of the variability in lifespan.
The N-GENE report identifies and explains key genetic variants that influence healthy aging or predisposition to age-related diseases.
The most disruptive aspect is that it does not limit itself to reporting SNPs in isolation but rather integrates functional information about antioxidant genes (SOD2, CAT, GPX1, NQO1), inflammatory genes (IL-6, TNFalpha), protumoral genes (TP53, TERT, MDM2, WRN), and neuroprotective genes (APOE, CLU). In addition, it incorporates the GrimAge Biological Clock, one of the most advanced markers for estimating biological age and mortality risk.
Practical applications for healthcare professionals
This report is not just a genetic analysis; it is a clinical action guide. For healthcare professionals, it means being able to apply strategies such as oxidative stress management, inflammaging, cancer prevention, neuroprotection, and biological age vs. chronological age assessment.
Why is N-GENE a valuable resource in daily practice?
N-GENE is an online platform designed specifically for healthcare professionals who want to integrate genetics in a rigorous, simple, and personalized way into their daily work.
With a single mass genotyping test, 700,000 markers are analyzed through Illumina, providing genetic information for the patient’s entire lifetime, with continuous updates based on the most recent scientific evidence.
The N-GENE approach offers applications in longevity, nutrition, dermatology, gynecology, neurology, cardiology, oncology, and pharmacogenetics, among other specialties. In this way, it becomes a versatile tool that helps healthcare professionals integrate genetics into daily clinical practice, always with a preventive and personalized approach.
