Genetic variants associated with longevity in long-living Indians | Anuradha Acharya

What makes some people live longer than others? In this talk, Anuradha Acharya, MapmyGenome, explores the genetic factors linked to longevity in the Indian population. Using genotype data from long-living individuals aged 85+ and younger controls, the study identifies genetic variants associated with healthier aging and increased lifespan. Several variants linked to cardiovascular health, mental well-being, and metabolic pathways were found to be more common in long-living individuals, including the well-known FOXO3A longevity gene. The findings highlight how genetic pathways related to oxidative stress, DNA repair, and energy metabolism may play a crucial role in shaping longevity in Indians. 🔔 Subscribe and stay tuned!

At Longevity India, we’re trying to change that. Through a few simple questions, we’re trying to capture what aging looks like in Indian homes: our diets, health habits, and everyday lives.
