A recent study published in the journal Nature Metabolism identified biomarkers of healthy aging and cardiometabolic diseases by mapping longitudinal serum proteome.
Aging is characterized by progressive organic, cellular, and molecular-level degeneration, leading to elevated disease susceptibility and functional decline. While various methods exist to predict chronological age, the biology of aging remains elusive. Proteostasis, the ability to maintain stable and functional protein…
