Plasma proteomic signatures of cellular aging predict human disease.

Nature medicine·June 1, 2026·PMID 42297981

Why it matters

For performance and longevity specialists, this paper introduces a proteomic framework to quantify organ- and cell-specific aging, moving beyond whole-body biological age clocks. It identifies actionable vulnerabilities—such as extreme astrocyte or myocyte aging—that dramatically elevate disease risk, enabling earlier risk stratification and targeted intervention.
