Clinical OMICs: ’Omics in Translation

“One of the unique characteristics of metabolomics is its ability to reveal functionality. This is of great benefit as it can help to fill the gaps of other ’omics where insights may be lacking. Scientists can use metabolomics to provide a bridge with other ’omic approaches to more completely understand disease manifestation and state of the phenotype in the present time.” - Annie Evans, Director of R&D at Metabolon.

North Carolina Biotechnology Center: Metabolon Mines Data for Causes of Frailty in the Elderly

Some people age with relative ease, while others become medically frail. They lose strength, fatigue more easily, or their health, social and psychological challenges accumulate, and they must depend on others for assistance with activities of daily living.

Health Research Innovation Portal: Partnership created to uncover reasons for frailty in aging populations

Three national research groups and a leading biotechnology company are teaming together to discover the frailty biomarkers that may shed light on why some people become frail, determine the severity of frailty and what can be done to help avoid the condition.

Biospace: Partnership created to uncover reasons for frailty in aging populations

To date there has been little consensus on the biological mechanisms underpinning frailty. Analysis of the CLSA samples will allow researchers to identify metabolites that will help to improve not only early prediction of frailty, but also lead to further research on treatments addressing specific aspects of frailty.
