Inflammaging has recently emerged as a pathway that correlates aging and age-related diseases with inflammation. In 2015, the World Health Organization World Report on Aging and Health highlighted an urgent requirement for healthy aging strategies.
Inflammaging refers to a progressive increase in chronic low-level inflammation that occurs naturally in the body as we get older. The main feature of the aging process is a chronic progressive increase in the pro-inflammatory status, that was originally termed as “inflamm-aging”. The term “inflamm-aging” was first named by Franceschi et al. in 2000, and it is a new addition to the types of aging studies. Skin-specific symptoms of chronic inflammation include wrinkles and crow’s feet, uneven tone and texture, and a slowdown of cells’ self-healing functions.
This seminar throws light upon the scientific process associated with inflammaging, the main causes of inflammaging and provides a ‘one-stop solution to inflammaging’ and the associated concerns.
