Scientists from Nizhny Novgorod National Research University. Lobachevsky (NNGU) named after Northeastern Federal University (NEFU). Ammosov and the Ufa Federal Research Center (UFRC) of the Russian Academy of Sciences calculated that residents of Yakutia are aging faster than Russians in other regions. The press service reports that UNN.
“The Yakuts are biologically 3-4 years older than the inhabitants of the European part of Russia,” the statement said.
According to research, this is due to long periods of adaptation to extreme climatic conditions. Genetic changes responsible for cold adaptation, metabolism and aging processes have been identified using the epigenetic clock (a set of epigenetic DNA marks that allow us to determine the biological age of a tissue, cell or organ). The research itself was aimed at creating a system for early diagnosis and correction of accelerated aging in medicine at enterprises in the Far North.
“Based on the data obtained, a system for early diagnosis and correction of rapid aging will be developed,” the publication says.
As explained at UNN, scientists aim to discover genes responsible for the adaptation and life expectancy of the population in different parts of the country. The results obtained may make it possible to reduce the aging rate and reduce the risks of residents moving to Yakutia in the European part of the Russian Federation.
