Telomeres are structures of tandem TTAGGG repeats that are found at the ends of
chromosomes and preserve genomic DNA by serving as a disposable buffer to protect DNA …

В вопросах профилактики кардиометаболических заболеваний мы чаще всего
опираемся на понятия риска и болезни, а не возможности сохранения здоровья …

This study was performed in a group of adult vegetarians (N= 40) and matched non-
vegetarian subjects (N= 40) in order to analyse differences in health-related biomarkers …

Advances in epigenetics now enable us to better understand environmental influences on
the genetic background of human diseases. This refers especially to fetal development …

Preterm birth is associated with abnormal respiratory functions throughout life. The
mechanisms underlying these long-term consequences are still unclear. Shortening of …

Background Subjects born preterm have an increased risk for age-associated diseases,
such as cardiovascular disease in later life, but the underlying causes are largely unknown …

Regarding prevention of cardiometabolic diseases, we often rely on the concepts of risk and
disease, rather than the possibility of prevention. The concept of “vascular age” is developed …

Low birth weight and rapid postnatal weight gain are independent predictors of obesity and
diabetes in adult life, yet the molecular events involved in this process remain unknown. In …
