TL;DR: This study has revealed very extensive and complex changes in IgG glycosylation with age, and the combined index composed of only three glycans explained up to 58% of variance in age, considerably more than other biomarkers of age like telomere lengths.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Association Between Glycosylation of Immunoglobulin G and Hypertension: A Multiple Ethnic Cross-Sectional Study.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the individual variation in N-glycosylation of IgG contributes to pathogenesis of hypertension, presumably via its effect on pro- and/or anti-inflammatory pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results suggest that citizens of developing countries may be exposed to environmental factors that can cause low-grade chronic inflammation and the apparent increase in biological age, as well as global inter-population differences in IgG glycosylation.

TL;DR: The results suggest that citizens of developing countries may be exposed to country-specific environmental factors that can cause low-grade chronic inflammation and the apparent increase in biological age.
