Project description:Frailty affects the physical, cognitive, and social domains exposing older adults to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and death. The mechanisms linking frailty and cardiovascular outcomes are mostly unknown. Here, we studied the association of abundance (flow cytometry) and gene expression profile (RNAseq) of stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) and molecular markers of inflammaging (ELISA) with the cardiorespiratory phenotype and prospective adverse events of individuals classified according to levels of frailty. Two cohorts of older adults were enrolled in the study. In a cohort of pre-frail 35 individuals (average age: 75 years), a physical frailty score above the median identified subjects with initial alterations in cardiorespiratory function. RNA sequencing revealed S100A8/A9 upregulation in HSPCs from the bone marrow (>10-fold) and peripheral blood (>200-fold) of individuals with greater physical frailty. Moreover higher frailty was associated with increased alarmins S100A8/A9 and inflammatory cytokines in peripheral blood. We then studied a cohort of 104 more frail individuals (average age: 81 years) with multi-domain health deficits. Reduced levels of circulating HSPCs and increased S100A8/A9 concentrations were independently associated with the frailty index. Remarkably, low HSPCs and high S100A8/A9 simultaneously predicted major adverse cardiovascular events at 1-year follow-up after adjustment for age and frailty index. In conclusion, inflammaging characterized by alarmin and pro-inflammatory cytokines in pre-frail individuals is mirrored by the pauperization of HSPCs in frail older people with comorbidities. S100A8/A9 is upregulated within HSPCs, identifying a phenotype that associates with poor cardiovascular outcomes.

Project description:As human society ages globally, age-related disorders are becoming increasingly common. Due to decreasing physiological reserves and increasing organ system dysfunction associated with age, frailty affects many elderly people, compromising their ability to cope with acute stressors. Frail elderly people commonly manifest complex clinical symptoms, including cognitive dysfunction, hypomobility, and impaired daily activity, the metabolic basis of which has been little understood. We applied untargeted, comprehensive, LC-MS metabolomic analysis to human blood from 19 frail and non-frail elderly patients, who were clinically evaluated using the Edmonton Frail Scale, the MoCA-J for cognition, and the TUG for mobility. Among 131 metabolites assayed, we identified 22 markers for frailty, cognition, and hypomobility, most of which were abundant in blood. Frailty markers included 5 of 6 markers specifically related to cognition and 6 of 12 associated with hypomobility. These overlapping sets of markers include metabolites related to antioxidation, muscle or nitrogen metabolism, and amino acids, most of which decrease in frail elderly people. Five frailty-related metabolites that decreased (1,5-anhydroglucitol, acetyl-carnosine, ophthalmic acid, leucine, and isoleucine) have been previously reported as markers of aging, providing a metabolic link between human aging and frailty. Our findings clearly indicate that metabolite profiles efficiently distinguish frailty from non-frailty. Importantly, the antioxidant, ergothioneine, which decreases in frailty, is neuroprotective. Oxidative stress resulting from diminished antioxidant levels, could be a key vulnerability for pathogenesis of frailty, exacerbating illnesses related to human aging.

Project description:Frailty is an intermediate status of human ageing process, associated with decompensated homeostasis and death. The immune phenotype of frailty and its underlying cellular and molecular processes remain poorly understood. Here we profiled 114,467 immune cells from cord blood, young adults, healthy and frail elderly using single-cell RNA and TCR V(D)J sequencing. An age-dependent accumulation of cell heterogeneity and transcriptome variability in defined immune cell types was observed. With the specific expression of gene sets, characteristic transcription factors were identified in given immune cell types of certain age group. Trajectory analysis revealed cells from non-frail and frail elderly often fall into distinct trajectories, despite similar chronological age. Numerous TCR clonotypes were shared among T cell subtypes in aged and frail samples, indicating differential pluripotency and resilience capability of aged T cells. Finally, a frailty-specific monocyte subset was identified with exclusively high expression of lncRNAs NEAT1 and MALAT1. Our results discover human frailty-specific immune cell characteristics based on the comprehensive dimensions in immune landscape of ageing and frailty.

Project description:Frailty is a geriatric syndrome that represents a state of vulnerability with increased risk of negative health outcomes. In the last years, independent studies attempted to identify biomarkers of frailty at biological level, but no consensus has been reached to date. In this work, we performed a transcriptomic analysis of 25 robust and frail community-dwelling individuals based on Timed Up and Go, Gait Speed and Tilburg Frailty Indicator scales. The comparison between individuals classified as frail or robust by the three tools revealed the expression of 35 transcripts associated with frailty status. These include genes linked to inflammation- and hypoxia-related pathways, immune response or microRNAs. Among them, additional analyses showed that the expression of a 3-gene pattern, increased EGR1 and reduced DDX11L1 and miR454, was able to identify frail individuals with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.86

Project description:<p>Due to global aging, frailty and sarcopenia are increasing. Sarcopenia is defined as loss of volume and strength of skeletal muscle in elderlies, while frailty involves multiple domains of aging-related dysfunction, impaired cognition, hypomobility and decreased social activity. However, little is known about the metabolic basis of sarcopenia, either shared with or discrete from frailty. Here we analyzed comprehensive metabolomic data of human blood in relation to sarcopenia, previously collected from 19 elderly participants in our frailty study. Among 131 metabolites, we identified 22 sarcopenia markers, distinct from 15 frailty markers, mainly including antioxidants, although sarcopenia overlaps clinically with physical frailty. Notably, 21 metabolites that decline in sarcopenia or low SMI are uremic compounds that increase in kidney dysfunction. These comprise TCA cycle, urea cycle, nitrogen and methylated metabolites. Sarcopenia markers imply a close link between muscle and kidney function, while frailty markers define a state vulnerable to oxidative stress.</p>

Project description:Frailty is an aging-associated syndrome resulting from diminished capacity to respond to stressors, disrupted homeostasis. It is a significant risk factor for disability and mortality. Although frailty is usually studied in old age, it is present in mid-life. Given the increases in mortality statistics among middle-aged Americans, understanding molecular drivers of frailty in a younger, diverse cohort may facilitate identifying pathways for early intervention. We analyzed frailty-associated, genome-wide transcriptional changes in middle-aged African Americans (AAs) and whites. Next generation RNA sequencing was completed using total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. We analyzed differential gene expression patterns and completed a parametric analysis of gene set enrichment (PAGE). Differential gene expression was validated using RT-qPCR. We identified 5,082 genes differentially expressed with frailty. Frailty altered gene expression patterns and biological pathways differently in AAs and whites, including inflammatory and immune response pathways. The validation study showed a significant two-way interaction between frailty, race, and expression of the cytokine IL1B and the transcription factor EGR1. The glucose transporter, SLC2A6, the neutrophil receptor, FCGR3B, and the accessory protein, C17orf56, were decreased with frailty. These results suggest that there may be demographic dependent, divergent biological pathways underlying frailty diagnosis in middle-aged adults.

Project description:This is a randomized, controlled trial on frail elderly patients (aged 65+) with colorectal cancer. The patients will be randomized into two groups. The control group will receive standard surgical treatment. The intervention group will in addition go through a preoperative comprehensive geriatric assessment. The assessment will include evaluation of co-morbidity and medication, social status, nutritional status, cognition, depression and physical performance. This assessment will form basis of an individualized perioperative intervention.
The main aim of the study is to see if the number of postoperative complications in this group can be reduced by a perioperative geriatric intervention. A study of inflammation markers in serum will also be performed, with focus on identifying potential biological frailty markers.

Project description:This work describes for the first time a different circular RNA (circRNAs) expression pattern between frail and robust individuals. Moreover, the level of some circRNAs is modulated after a physical intervention. These results suggest that they could be used as minimally invasive biomarkers of frailty. Frailty is an intermediate and reversible geriatric syndrome that often precedes dependency. Therefore, its identification is essential to prevent dependency. Diverse molecules have been proposed as biomarkers of frailty, but none of them has reached clinical practice. Recently, circular RNAs have emerged as new non-coding RNAs. Their regulatory role together with their high stability in biofluids makes them good candidates as biomarkers for several processes, but, to date, no studies have characterized circRNA expression in frailty. We studied RNA from leukocytes of 35 frail and 35 robust individuals. After RNA-Sequencing, circRNA detection was performed by CIRI2 and Circexplorer2 and differential expression analysis by DESeq2. Validation was performed by Quantitative-PCR. A Linear Discriminant Analysis was performed to determine the best circRNA combination to discriminate frails from robusts. Besides, CircRNA candidates were studied in 13 additional elder donors before and after a 3-month physical intervention. We found 89 differentially expressed circRNAs (p-value<0.05, FC>|1.5|) with frailty. The upregulation of hsa_circ_0007817, hsa_circ_0101802 and hsa_circ_0060527 in frail individuals was validated. The combination of hsa_circ_0079284, hsa_circ_0007817 and hsa_circ_0075737 levels showed a great biomarker value with a 95.9% probability of correctly classifying frail and robust individuals. Moreover, hsa_circ_0079284 levels decreased after physical intervention in concordance with an improvement in frailty scores.
