Multi-Omics Signatures of Organ Clocks in Biological Aging and Disease: A Conceptual Framework for Organ-Specific Aging Clocks

2 months 3 weeks ago
Biological aging reflects the progressive decline in cellular and tissue function. Unlike chronological age, biological age is a more accurate indicator of physiological state. Multi-omics organ clocks have been emerging as promising tools to assess biological aging by integrating genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic data. These conceptual frameworks suggest that individual organs may age at different rates, explaining variability in the onset and progression of...

Multi-Omics Reveals Mechanisms of Metabolic Rejuvenation in Aged Mice and Pre-Frail Older Men by Losartan

2 months 3 weeks ago
Aging is associated with significant alterations in systemic metabolism across species. We employed targeted metabolomics to investigate the effects of losartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, on the serum metabolome of aged mice and pre-frail older men. Losartan treatment resulted in a shift in serum metabolome aging signature to a more youthful state. This rejuvenation effect appears to be contingent on the presence of functional angiotensin II receptors, with receptor knockout mice...
