Decoding the Blueprint – The Central Dogma, Peptides, and siRNA in the Quest for Age-less Youth
About this episode
This episode explores the central dogma of molecular biology and its implications for aging and longevity.
In this illuminating episode of The Science of Age-less Living , Dr. Ethan Hausman-Marquis takes you on a deep dive into the very foundation of life itself: the central dogma of molecular biology. From DNA to RNA to protein — discover how this elegant cellular assembly line governs everything from skin elasticity and energy production to repair and regeneration. Using vivid analogies, Dr. Hausman-Marquis explains why the speed and accuracy of transcription and translation are intimately linked to how we age, and how errors in this process contribute to genomic instability, protein misfolding, and inflammaging. You’ll explore the powerful roles of peptides — nature’s precision repair crews — including GHK-Cu, Epitalon, and senotherapeutic peptides like OS-01, which fine-tune protein output, support telomere maintenance, boost collagen production, and help restore youthful gene expression. Then, journey into the revolutionary world of siRNA (small interfering RNA) — the molecular silencers that can intercept and destroy faulty genetic instructions before they cause harm. Learn how this Nobel Prize-winning technology is moving from rare disease treatments into the frontier of…
