A new study describes the development of proteomics-based ageing clocks that calculate the biological age of specific organs and define features of extreme ageing associated with age-related diseases. Their findings support the notion that plasma proteins can be used to monitor the ageing rates of specific organs and disease progression.
Improved understanding of the interrelated nature of cardiovascular, kidney and metabolic (CKM) health, the development of novel risk prediction equations, and the availability of powerful new therapies provide an opportunity to change the course of CKM health. Achieving such change at a population level will require additional advances to deliver equitable interdisciplinary care.
