Proteomic age
Statistical age models built from protein measurements.
AI-assisted editorial draft · Source check: 6 September 2026 · Independent reviewer: not yet assigned
What it measures
Patterns across measured proteins, commonly in blood plasma.
Source 1: Nature Medicine / Argentieri et al.Required inputs
A protein-assay panel matching the specific model, and its coefficients and preprocessing.
How it was developed
Different research groups train different clocks. Argentieri and colleagues published a large proteomic aging study in 2024.
Source 1: Nature Medicine / Argentieri et al.Outcome associations
The cited study investigated mortality and common age-related disease risks across populations.
Source 1: Nature Medicine / Argentieri et al.Limitations
A published research clock is not automatically the clock in a commercial kit. This category remains unrated until an exact implementation is reviewed.
Can you calculate it yourself?
Generally needs specialist laboratory data and the relevant research workflow.
Commercial use
No proteomic test has yet been verified in the starter directory. Methylation-estimated proteins are not directly measured proteomics.
