ZitatGRP treatment prolonged the mean lifespan of C. elegans by 58.60 % (19.64 days) and did not affect locomotive behaviors. It reduced levels of lipofuscin and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and increased superoxide dismutase activity, which prevented oxidative damage caused by aging.

Research Progress on the Anti-Aging Potential of the Active Components of Ginseng
ZitatGinsenosides are the most widely studied active ingredients, and ginsenoside monomers, such as Rg1, Rg3, Rb1, and Rc, have shown strong anti-aging effects and demonstrated good therapeutic effects against neurodegenerative disease, diabetes, skin aging, muscle atrophy, and other age-related diseases [167,168,169,170,171]. The active ingredients of ginseng mainly contribute to aging delay through the following mechanisms: (1) the increase in the expression of antioxidant enzymes to achieve a balance between intracellular oxidation and antioxidation, the mitigation of excessive production of ROS, and the reduction in endogenous DNA damage, which prevent cell cycle arrest and delay aging; and (2) the regulation of the activities of DNA glycosylase and sirtuins in the process of DNA damage repair to ensure that the DNA repair pathway can accurately repair DNA damage caused by various factors associated with aging.
Kommentar: Reduzierung von DNA-Schäden auf jeden Fall spannend. Spräche was gegen eine langfristige Einnahme, wenn man keine NW bemerkt?
How ginseng regulates autophagy: Insights from multistep process
ZitatGinseng regulates the development of numerous diseases through inducing or inhibiting the multistep processes of autophagy. Ginseng extracts and active components that are isolated from ginseng, especially ginsenosides, mediate numerous autophagy-related pathways, such as mTOR, AMPK signaling, PI3K/AKT pathway, and p62-Keap1-Nrf2 axis. Currently, the therapeutic role of ginseng-mediated autophagy in cancers, brain diseases, and heart diseases have been widely acknowledged, corroborating ginseng as the potential drug candidates in these fields. We have also discussed the complicated relationship between ginseng-regulated autophagy and apoptosis in cancer. Autophagy and apoptosis work either synergistically or antagonistically in determining cancer cell fate, revealing the potential and importance of combining both ginseng’s mode of action, i.e., autophagy and apoptosis. Although the understanding of the therapeutic effects of ginseng has expanded in recent years, a comprehensive review of ginseng as an autophagy-targeting therapeutic agent is not yet available.
ZitatIn Europa bekommen wir meist Weißen Ginseng, dessen Extrakt in der Regel um die vier Prozent Ginsenoside enthält. Japanischer Roter Ginseng bietet um die acht Prozent dieser bioaktiven Stoffe.
Red Ginseng Attenuates the Hepatic Cellular Senescence in Aged Mice
ZitatThe aim of this study was to explore the potential impact of red ginseng (RG) on age-associated cellular senescence through in vitro, ex vivo, and 19-month-old aged mouse models. In addition to enhancing insulin homeostasis, RG supplementation modified the canonical cellular senescence pathway and inhibited apoptotic markers. Moreover, RG significantly reduced the senescence-associated inflammatory pathway in the liver. Finally, the RG treatment mitigated cellular senescence in primary hepatocytes and mouse embryonic fibroblasts. In conclusion, these findings suggest that RG has a positive influence on the aging process by regulating hepatic cellular senescence and age-related phenotypes.
Da scheint es an den Pektinen zu liegen? Sonst liest man immer von Ginsenosiden, viele Extrakte basieren ja auch darauf. Man blick echt nicht durch bei den Produkten. Die Angaben reichen von 0,x% Ginsenoside bis hin zu 80% davon. Noch verwirrender ist das Marketing mit den Laboranalysen, die dann oftmals nur für Schwermetalle oder Schimmelpilze sind, aber nicht für den Wirkstoffgehalt. Kann hier jemand ein gutes Produkt empfehlen? Muss es teurer Ginseng sein oder tut es auch ein günstiger?
