ABSTRACT Background Sex, as a critical biological variable, has historically been underappreciated, despite the pervasive influence of sexual dimorphism across physiological and pathological processes. A significant obstacle to advancing sex-biased research is absence an effective animal model. In recent years, castration emerged potential model for elucidating sex-based differences in context healthy aging, where it shown equalize lifespan growth trajectories genetically diverse mice. However, molecular shifts induced by common laboratory models, such C57BL/6 mice, broader applicability this other sex-related contexts remain largely unexplored. Methods We employed multi-omics observational analyses investigate changes associated with sex hormones following castration. analyzed serum, kidney, liver samples from 12-week-old 18-month-old castrated male alongside intact female counterparts. The was further applied assess cisplatin-induced toxicity age-related cognitive decline comparison unaltered controls. Results LC-MS/MS metabolomics revealed that males exhibited substantial alterations steroid hormone levels increased concentrations antioxidant compounds, taurine, identical diets. Integrated metabolome-transcriptome analysis confirmed distinct patterns lipid peroxidation oxidative stress sham-operated female, male, Histopathological evaluations cisplatin treatment aging-related behavioral tests demonstrated model’s utility investigating sex-dependent drug decline. These findings underscored role modulating both defense mechanisms performance. Conclusion This study provides systematic spectrum on demonstrates its capacity feminize metabolic transcriptomic profiles, establishing valuable tool exploring hormone-driven differences.

SUMMARY Health is strongly affected by aging and lifespan-modulating interventions, but the molecular mechanisms of mortality regulation remain unclear. Here, we conducted an RNA-seq analysis mice subjected to 20 compound treatments in Interventions Testing Program (ITP). By integrating it with data from over 4,000 rodent tissues representing responses genetic, pharmacological, dietary interventions established survival data, developed robust multi-tissue transcriptomic biomarkers mortality, capable quantifying change lifespan both short-lived long-lived models. These tools were further extended single-cell human demonstrating common across cell types species. Via a network analysis, identified annotated 26 co-regulated modules longevity tissues, interpretable module-specific clocks that capture aging- mortality-associated phenotypes functional components, including, among others, inflammatory response, mitochondrial function, lipid metabolism, extracellular matrix organization. captured characterized acceleration biological age induced progeria models chronic diseases rodents humans. They also revealed rejuvenation heterochronic parabiosis, early embryogenesis, cellular reprogramming, highlighting universal signatures shared age-related disease. included Cdkn1a Lgals3 , whose plasma levels demonstrated strong association all-cause disease incidence risk factors, such as obesity hypertension. Overall, this study uncovers hallmarks mammalian organs, types, species rejuvenation, exposing fundamental longevity.

Decreased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (oxidized form) (NAD + ) levels are reportedly associated with several aging-related disorders. Thus, supplementation NAD precursors, such as mononucleotide (NMN) and riboside (NR), exhibits beneficial effects against these However, the in vivo metabolic pathways of NMN NR remain to be elucidated. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed fate orally intravenously administered mice using metabolomics. We found that only a small portion was directly absorbed from intestine most them underwent gut microbiota–mediated deamidation conversion nicotinic acid (NA). Moreover, were rapidly degraded into secreted bile followed by NA microbiota. enterohepatic circulated is preferentially used liver. These findings showed indirectly converted via unexpected pathways.
