Study examines gene expression and aging markers across four mammal species
A new study published in Nature analyzed gene expression patterns and aging indicators in four mammalian species, including humans. Researchers developed transcriptomic clocks to supplement existing methods for predicting health outcomes.
neurosciencenews.comA study published in Nature examined gene expression and aging markers across four mammalian species, including humans. The research added transcriptomic clocks to existing epigenetic, organ, and cellular clocks used for health outcome predictions. The study identified several proteins associated with disease and event risk prediction.
These findings were presented in an accompanying figure within the publication. The work contributes additional measurement tools for assessing biological aging processes across species.
