Probiotics Role in Anti-Aging Prevention Research
22 patents in this list
Updated:
The relationship between microbiota and aging has emerged as a key research focus, with studies showing that age-related changes in gut flora correlate with inflammatory markers, metabolic disruption, and cellular senescence. Recent measurements indicate specific bacterial populations decrease by up to 1000-fold in elderly populations, while potentially harmful species can increase exponentially, creating measurable impacts on health biomarkers.
The core challenge lies in identifying and maintaining beneficial bacterial populations that can effectively modulate aging-related pathways without disrupting the complex homeostasis of the human microbiome.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including engineered probiotic strains that target telomere maintenance, bacterial compositions that enhance mitochondrial function, fermented preparations that boost collagen production, and microbiota-based approaches for reducing inflammation. These and other approaches focus on translating microbiome science into practical anti-aging interventions that can be delivered through food products, supplements, and therapeutic treatments.
