Inflammation is a core molecular process driving aging and age-related diseases.

“And inflammation is at the core of aging. I mean, this is known. It is really, really one of the I would say molecular processes that is driving all these hallmarks of aging. It is driving, you know, damage to your DNA that leads to cancer. It's driving damage to proteins that's leading to them aggregating and not being degraded. And you're getting these aggregates in your brain leading to Alzheimer's disease and in your cardiovascular system leading to cardiovascular disease, atheroscerosis. You know, it is fundamentally driving cancer. I mean, inflammation is at the heart of cancer. It's really at the core of every age related disease.”
