Ageotypes: 4 New Personal Aging Makers | Dr. Michael Snyder | Stanford University | Part V

Ascherman Professor and Chair, Department of Genetics and Director, Center for Genomics and Personalized Medicine at Stanford University. He is a leader in the field of functional genomics and proteomics. Seminal findings from the Snyder laboratory include the discovery that much more of the human genome is transcribed and contains regulatory information than was previously appreciated, and a high diversity of transcription factor binding occurs both between and within species. He has also pioneered the use of different state-of-the-art “omics” technologies as well as wearable devices for managing human health. In this video, Dr. Snyder will talk about Ageotypes, defined as the part of the body where the aging process was most active based on a research study led by him, which could explain why we age at different rates. The study tracked 106 healthy individuals, aged between 29 and 75, taking blood and biological samples to investigate each person at a deep molecular level. They carried out tests at least five times over two years in order to record any changes, with Dr. Snyder even taking part as a subject of his own research. Researchers discovered four “ageotypes,” – defined as the part of the body where the aging process was most active. Those involved in the trial tended to age most within the immune system, kidney, liver, or at a metabolic level. Ageotypes may provide a molecular assessment of personal aging, reflective of personal lifestyle and medical history, that may ultimately be useful in monitoring and intervening in the aging process.
