Multi-omics analysis of canine aging markers and evaluation of stem cell intervention.

ABSTRACT: Dogs serve as ideal research subjects for aging studies. In this study, 9 aging-related cell populations are identified through single-cell RNA sequencing of dogs of different ages. Additionally, 9 CD8+ T cell senescence-specific markers conserved across species are identified. Furthermore, multi-omics technology is employed to characterize 17 transcriptional and protein markers, along with 5 metabolic markers, associated with stem cell aging. Penitrem A and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine are further validated as two consistent metabolic markers of both individual and cellular senescence. A customized metabolic assessment system and blood-based assessment framework specifically for aging dogs are developed. Notably, it is demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells, particularly those overexpressing
