Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies are post-translationally modified by the addition of complex carbohydrate molecules - glycans, which have profound effects on the IgG function, most significantly as modulators of its inflammatory capacity. Therefore, it is not surprising that the changes in IgG glycosylation pattern are associated with various physiological states and diseases, including aging and age-related diseases. Importantly, within the inflammaging concept, IgG glycans are considered not only biomarkers but one of the molecular effectors of the aging process. The exact mechanism by which they exert their function, however, remains unknown. In this review, we list and comment on, to our knowledge, all studies that examined changes in IgG glycosylation during aging in humans. We focus on the information obtained from studies on general population, but we also cover the insights obtained from studies of long-lived individuals and people with age-related diseases. We summarize the current knowledge on how levels of different IgG glycans change with age (i.e., the extent and direction of the change with age) and discuss the potential mechanisms and possible functional roles of changes in IgG glycopattern that accompany aging.
免疫球蛋白G(IgG)抗体在翻译后会通过添加复杂的碳水化合物分子——聚糖进行修饰,聚糖对IgG功能有深远影响,最为显著的是作为其炎症能力的调节剂。因此,IgG糖基化模式的变化与包括衰老和年龄相关疾病在内的各种生理状态和疾病相关也就不足为奇了。重要的是,在炎症衰老概念中,IgG聚糖不仅被视为生物标志物,而且是衰老过程的分子效应器之一。然而,它们发挥功能的确切机制仍然未知。在这篇综述中,据我们所知,我们列出并评论了所有研究人类衰老过程中IgG糖基化变化的研究。我们关注从普通人群研究中获得的信息,但也涵盖了从长寿个体和患有年龄相关疾病的人群研究中获得的见解。我们总结了关于不同IgG聚糖水平如何随年龄变化的现有知识(即随年龄变化的程度和方向),并讨论了伴随衰老的IgG糖型变化的潜在机制和可能的功能作用。
