Biological aging clocks produce age estimates that can track with age-related health outcomes. This study aimed to benchmark machine learning algorithms, including regularized regression, kernel-based methods, and ensembles, for developing metabolomic aging clocks from nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy data. The UK Biobank data, including 168 plasma metabolites from up to = 225,212 middle-aged and older adults (mean age, 56.97 years), were used to train and internally validate 17 algorithms. Metabolomic age (MileAge) delta, the difference between metabolite-predicted and chronological age, from a Cubist rule-based regression model showed the strongest associations with health and aging markers. Individuals with an older MileAge were frailer, had shorter telomeres, were more likely to suffer from chronic illness, rated their health worse, and had a higher all-cause mortality hazard (HR = 1.51; 95% CI, 1.43 to 1.59; < 0.001). This metabolomic aging clock (MileAge) can be applied in research and may find use in health assessments, risk stratification, and proactive health tracking.

Background: The human gut microbiota develops in concordance with its host over a lifetime, resulting in age-related shifts in community structure and metabolic function. Little is known about whether these changes impact the community's response to microbiome-targeted therapeutics. Providing critical information on this subject, faecal microbiomes of subjects from six age groups, spanning from infancy to 70-year-old adults (n = six per age group) were harvested.

Aims: This study explores the link between body mass index (BMI), intestinal permeability, and associated changes in anthropometric and impedance parameters, lipid profiles, inflammatory markers, fecal metabolites, and gut microbiota taxa composition in participants having excessive body mass.
Methods: A cohort of 58 obese individuals with comparable diet, age, and height was divided into three groups based on a priori clustering analyses that fit with BMI class ranges: Group I (25-29.9), Group II (30-39.

Obesity and its related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes (T2DM), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and metabolic fatty liver disease (MAFLD), require new diagnostic markers for earlier detection and intervention. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the potential of metabolomics as a tool for identifying biomarkers associated with obesity and its comorbidities in every age group. The presented systematic review makes an important contribution to the understanding of the potential of metabolomics in identifying biomarkers of obesity and its complications, especially considering the influence of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), amino acids (AAs) and adipokines on the development of T2DM, MAFLD, and CVD.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of early weaning (EW) on the growth performance, gastrointestinal development, serum parameters, and metabolomics of Hu sheep lambs. Twenty-four male Hu lambs were initially ewe-reared. A total of 12 lambs were weaned at 30 d of age (D30) as the EW group, and the remaining 12 lambs were weaned at 45 d of age (D45) as the control (CON) group.

Intestinal microorganisms are essential for maintaining homeostasis, health, and development, playing a critical role in nutrient digestion, growth, and exercise performance in pigeons. In young pigeons, the gut microbiota is primarily acquired through pigeon milk, meaning the microbial composition of parent pigeons directly influences microbial colonization in squabs. However, research on the correlation between the gut microbial diversity of parent pigeons and their offspring remains scarce.
