Aging Lipidome Mapping

Meaning

Aging Lipidome Mapping is the systematic, high-throughput analysis used to catalogue and quantify the entire spectrum of lipids within an organism, specifically tracking the characteristic changes that occur over the chronological and biological aging process. This comprehensive technique identifies shifts in lipid classes, such as the accumulation of oxidized lipids or changes in membrane fatty acid saturation. The resulting map serves as a detailed molecular signature of an individual’s biological age and cellular senescence status. It provides crucial insight into the lipid-based foundations of health and longevity.
