[0041] The risk of hypercholesterolemia increases with age (Kriesberg RA a nd Kasim S (1987) Cholesterol metabolism and aging, Am J Me d 82:54-60). Elevated cholesterol, especially low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Elevated terol levels are associated with cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, whose prevalence increases with age. It has been identified as an underlying cause or contributing factor of the disease. A decrease in cholesterol levels is particularly important. In people under 50 years old, it is associated with improved life expectancy (Anderson KM, Castel li WP, Levy D (1987) Cholesterol and mortal ity: Framingham Study JAMA 257:2176-2180 (A 30-year follow-up).

[0042] As we age, the accumulation of type I and type III collagen increases, affecting the heart, lungs, and liver. Progressive fibrous diseases of the kidneys and skin occur, affecting the function of the heart, respiratory system, liver, and kidneys, as well as wounds. It negatively affects wound healing. Increased fibrosis is partly due to increased circulating PAI-1 and uPA This may be due to a decrease in collagen-I(Ghos) h AK,Vaughan DE 2011 PAI-1 in tissue fib Fibrosis (including rosis J Cell Physiol 227:493-507) It reduces the active degradation of tissue. Drugs that reduce PAI-1 and increase uPA are associated with thrombosis. It is helpful in treating [condition] and, by reducing collagen-I deposition, is also useful in treating fibrotic diseases. It is helpful and improves wound healing associated with aging.

[0043] Aging is associated with a higher circulation of autoantibodies and immunoglobulins, including immunoglobulin G (IgG). It is associated with the ring level (Hallgren et al. 1973 Lymphocyte phytohemagglutinin) Responsiveness, immunoglobulins and autoantibodies in aging humans). The most common circulating antibody is IgG is released from B cells as a component of humoral immunity. IgG fights infection. While it helps, it also helps with autoimmune hemolytic anemia, serum sickness, systemic lupus erythematosus, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In type II and type III hypersensitivity reactions, including but not limited to these, pathogenic factors play a role. Drugs that reduce IgG secretion by B cells are used to treat hyperglobulinemia and hypersensitivity disorders. It is useful for treatment.

[0140] In some embodiments, the diagnostic or monitoring method involves fatty acids in body fluids (e.g., The process includes measuring the percentage of odd-chain fatty acids or very long-chain even-chain fatty acids. It is possible. In some embodiments, the diagnostic or monitoring method is used in relation to aging. The step includes measuring markers of conditions provided herein, including related conditions. In some embodiments, the diagnostic or monitoring method may be related to the condition of aging. The step may include measuring the marker. In some embodiments, one marker The relationship between one marker and another marker may be proven to be beneficial. In some embodiments And, age-related conditions include the threshold level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate, for example, serum odd-chain fatty acids or This can be diagnosed by referring to serum very long even-chain fatty acids. In some embodiments, The age-related conditions provided herein are threshold levels of condition markers, for example, blood Percentage of odd-chain fatty acids, serum concentration of odd-chain fatty acids, serum total odd-chain fatty acids, serum total Refer to long even-chain fatty acids, total serum very long even-chain fatty acids, or the ratio between two serum fatty acids. It may be diagnosed by, for example, a threshold, a symptom or marker of an age-related condition. This may be determined by referring to [the relevant source].

[0141] Fatty acids in the subject (e.g., odd-chain fatty acids or very long-chain even-chain fatty acids, or additives) The percentage of age-related condition markers can be monitored by any means. The sample for analysis may be derived from any fluid or tissue of the subject. For example, serum. These are derived from plasma, red blood cell membranes, urine, and feces. [Examples]

[0142] Example 1 Aging increases the risk of hypercholesterolemia. Oral administration of synthetic odd-chain saturated fatty acids is transmitted It was hypothesized to lower cholesterol in standardized obese experimental animal models.

[0143] In this study, synthetic pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) was administered orally daily to an obese mouse model. The effects of administration on total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol were investigated. 20 C 57BL / 6J mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) (D12492, 60% kcal fat). They were given for 8 weeks. Then, the study mice were divided into the following two groups: 10: vehicle control and pentadeca. The samples were divided into groups treated with nitrate (5 mg / kg body weight). The test substance was a synthetic powder form that was stable at room temperature. Purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (product W433400 (≧99% C15:0)) The test substance continued to have free access to HFD while the stomach was strong for 12 weeks (84 days). It was provided daily via the system. Total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein were measured on day 0 and day 84. (LDL) cholesterol was measured. Wilcoxon rank-sum analysis was used to analyze the treatment group. The data were compared with the control group. Significance was defined as a p-value of 0.05 or less.

[0144] Mice in the pentadecanoic acid treatment group were resistant to the test substance throughout the study. No early deaths were observed in the Uss group, but one animal in the control group unexpectedly died at 7 weeks after administration. Ta.

[0145] When comparing the pentadecanoate treatment group to the vehicle control group on day 84, pentadecanoate ( Subjects treated with 5 mg / kg showed lower total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels. The group had the characteristic (Table 1). There was no difference in these variables between the two groups on day 0 (data shown). (Not.)

[0146] Table 1 shows the correlation between obese mice treated with oral synthetic pentadecanoic acid for 84 days and controls. This provides a comparison of terols. [Table 1]

[0147] Example 2 With age, the risk of hyperglobulinemia, fibrosis, thrombosis, and hypercholesterolemia increases. Oral administration of synthetic odd-chain saturated fatty acids is a traditional experimental animal model for high-fat diets. In this context, the hypothesis was made that it would lower serum globulin, cholesterol, and liver fibrosis. It was done.

[0148] In this study, in an animal model fed a high-fat diet, synthetic pentadecanoic acid (C15:0 This study investigates the effects of daily oral administration of [the drug] on serum globulin, cholesterol, and liver fibrosis. They did. They fed 16 New Zealand white rabbits a high-fat diet (HFD) (4% peanut oil and They were given 0.5% cholesterol for two weeks. Then, the research rabbits were divided into two groups of eight. Divided into two groups: high-fat diet control and treatment with pentadecanoic acid (35 mg / kg body weight). High-fat diet animals. The test substance is a synthetic powder form that is stable at room temperature, and is Sigma-Aldric. Purchased from h (product W433400 (≧99% pentadecanoic acid)). The test substance is HFD. It was given daily as part of the diet for 11 weeks (77 days) while maintaining free access to it. Day 0 Total cholesterol, platelets, and globulin were measured on day 77.

[0149] On day 77, liver tissue was collected from the HFD control group and the pentadecanoic acid administration group and sent to a certified veterinary pathology department. Scholars histologically scored fibrosis. Liver tissue was paraffin for H&E. Processed for picrociria red staining for embedded blocks and fibrosis (collagen deposition). The entire Picrospirius red-stained liver slide was scanned using Aperio ScanScope. The scan was performed using AT2 at 20x magnification. The stages of fibrosis were defined as follows: 0 = 0 1 = perisinusoidal or periportal, 2 = perisinusoidal and portal / periportal, 3 = bridging fibrosis, 4 = Liver cirrhosis. Wilcoxon rank-sum analysis was used to compare data from the treatment group with those from the control group. Significance was defined as a p-value of 0.05 or less.

[0150] The rabbits treated with pentadecanoic acid were resistant to the test substance throughout the study. There were no early deaths in the loop either.

[0151] When comparing the pentadecanoate treatment group to the HFD control group on day 77, pentadecanoate (3 Subjects treated with 5 mg / kg showed lower plasma cholesterol, platelets, and globulin levels. They had brin. On day 0, there was no difference in these variables between the two study groups (data (Not shown). Table 2 shows blood samples between rabbits treated with oral synthetic pentadecanoic acid for 77 days and controls. This provides a comparison of serum cholesterol, platelets, globulin, and creatine kinase. [Table 2]

[0152] When comparing the pentadecanoate administration group and the HFD control group on Day 77, pentadecanoate showed that Subjects in the group administered canic acid (35 mg / kg) had a lower severity of liver fibrosis. Figure 1 shows the results. Table 3 shows the absence of stage 3 cross-linking fibrosis in the livers of rabbits treated with antadecanoic acid. The study compared the liver fibrosis stages of rabbits treated with oral synthetic pentadecanoic acid for 77 days with those of controls. This provides a comparison of A. [Table 3]

[0153] Example 3 With age, the risk of hyperglobulinemia, fibrosis, allergies, and cancer increases. Primary human cells, stimulated to mimic thrombotic and fibrotic responses, are combined at appropriate concentrations. It was hypothesized that exposure to odd-chain saturated fatty acids would result in a reduced negative response.

[0154] This study involved 3 individuals exposed to drugs that mimic allergic, thrombotic, and fibrotic disease conditions. Four concentrations (740 nm and 2.2, 6.0 nm) for two major human cell-based active systems. The effect of synthetic pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) at 7 and 20 μM was investigated. Generally, Protein-based biomarkers in these systems were measured and compared to controls. Pentadecanoic acid is measured in two or more consecutive concentrations in the same direction compared to a vehicle control. The biomarkers were altered and were outside the significant envelope of the internal control, exceeding 20%. If there is at least one concentration having an effect size (log10 ratio > 0.1), It was deemed "active".

[0155] The initial cell-based system replicated the T cell-dependent B cell activation that occurs in germinal centers. , mimicking allergic pathology. CD19+ B cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were treated with α-IgM and The cells were stimulated with TCR ligands and incubated with pentadecanoic acid for 168 hours. In addition to controls not treated with decanoic acid, a negative, non-stimulating system was also included. Secretory IgG was measured. , compared with a control group.

[0156] The second cell-based system replicated the Th1 inflammatory and pro-thrombus-forming environment. Primary endothelial cells were stimulated with IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFNγ, along with pentadecanoic acid. Incubated for 24 hours. Negative non-treated samples were compared with controls that were not treated with pentadecanoic acid. This includes the stimulatory system. Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor in this system. (uPAR) activation was measured and compared with the control.

[0157] The third cell-based system replicated fibrosis and cell proliferation. Primary dermal fibroblasts Stimulated with IL-1β, TNFα, IFNγ, EGF, bFGF, and PDGF-BB, Incubated with pentadecanoic acid for 24 hours. Control that was not treated with pentadecanoic acid. In addition, a negative, non-stimulating system was also included. Plasminogen activator inhibitors in this system -1 (PAI-1), collagen-I, and fibroblast proliferation (72 hours) were measured, and the control group was compared with the other group. I compared them.

[0158] Pentadecanoic acid is available in all four concentrations (740 nm and 2.2, 6.7, and 20 μM). ) and it was non-cytotoxic in all three cell lines.

[0159] These studies mimic inflammatory responses, prothrombus formation responses, fibrotic responses, and cell proliferation responses. The cell-based system was attenuated with pentadecanoic acid. Figures 2, 3, and 4 show the effects of pentadecanoic acid and Dose-dependent decrease in secreted IgG in human cell lines incubated with uPA (Figure 2), uPA Increased R (Figure 3), as well as PAI-1, collagen-I and 72-hour fibroblast proliferation This provides a reduction (Figure 4). For all of these indices, 6.7 μM and 20 μM PE The concentration of antadecanoic acid was associated with biological activity.

[0160] Abnormal chain fatty acids (heptadecanoic acid, or C17:0, and pentadecanoic acid, or C15:0) ) is a saturated fatty acid found in the whole-fat dairy products of ruminants. Odd-chain saturated fatty acids are found in the rumen. It is aggregated by bacteria, passes from the rumen into milk, and is used as a biomarker for milk fat intake. It is being used. Interestingly, even though consumers are moving away from high-fat foods Furthermore, when indicated by the blood concentrations of C15:0 and C17:0, in humans, dairy products Intake is associated with several health benefits, including a lower incidence of obesity and irritability disorders. To date, the mechanisms of the benefits of dairy products for obesity and hypersensitivity have not been elucidated. It has not been determined. Based on the results obtained using the method of the embodiment, odd-chain saturated fatty acids are found in humans. It has been suggested that dairy products may be important players in the anti-obesity and anti-hypersensitivity benefits. obtain.

[0161] To take advantage of these benefits, odd-chain saturated fatty acids are used in supplements, medical foods, and other foods. Additives, food fortifiers, beverage additives, beverage fortifiers, or tablets, encapsulated pills, gel capsules Acids in any form of pharmaceutical, including poppies, liquid suspensions, sprays, and powders. This can be done. Furthermore, human and animal samples (blood (including serum, plasma, and red blood cell membranes)) Diagnostic tests and assays for odd-chain saturated fatty acids in urine and feces are used to detect low odd-chain saturated fatty acids. Detect chain-saturated fatty acids and continuously monitor odd-chain saturated fatty acid levels in patients. Possible. The use of odd-chain saturated fatty acids can prevent, treat, and cure: high blood sugar. Resterolemia, obesity, thrombosis, fibrosis, wound healing, hyperglobulinemia, hypersensitivity, and Aging and age-related conditions, including cancer cell proliferation and other related conditions.

[0162] Based on modified diet studies using dolphins, odd-chain saturated fatty acids are associated with metabolic syndrome. Blood, diabetes, type 2 diabetes, elevated fasting plasma glucose, elevated serum triglycerides, Hyperferritinemia, cardiovascular disease, fatty liver, abdominal obesity, pro-inflammatory state, C-reactive protein Improved quality, inflammation, anemia, insulin resistance, autoimmune diseases, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and Proposed as a method for treating neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. It is being done.

[0163] The data shows a decrease in cholesterol (total or LDL cholesterol), and thrombosis, blood clots, and Odd-chain saturated fatty acids for the alleviation of vascular disease, obesity, hyperglobulinemia, hypersensitivity, and cancer cell proliferation. To demonstrate the direct effect: A high-fat diet was administered, followed by oral pentadecanoic acid (C15:0) for 12 weeks. Obese mice treated daily showed lower cholesterol levels compared to control mice fed only a high-fat diet. It showed sterols and a lower percentage of weight gain. Cholesterol with pentadecanoate The reducing effect was repeated in the authors' study using rabbits fed a high-fat diet. Rabbits given and simultaneously treated with daily oral pentadecanoic acid for 11 weeks compared to high-fat diet controls. In comparison, cholesterol levels were lower. In addition, the authors' study of rabbits on a high-fat diet compared to the control group. In comparison, pentadecanoic acid lowers serum globulin levels and reduces the severity of liver fibrosis. Beneficial effects were demonstrated. These anti-hypersensitivity and anti-fibrotic effects in rabbits were our first This has been repeated in human cell phenotypic profiling studies, including studies on phenotypic profiling from B cells. dose-dependent reduction of secretory immunoglobulin G by endothelial cells, uroquina - Increased plasminogen activator receptors, and plasminogen activator inhibitors This included a decrease in collagen-1, collagen-I, and dermal fibroblast proliferation.

[0164] The data shows the presence of odd-chain saturated fatty acids at dose-dependent concentrations ranging from 2.2 μM to 20 μM. Beneficial activity is demonstrated, and the most beneficial effect is detected at a minimum of 6.7 μM. The administration of odd-chain saturated fatty acids to achieve serum, plasma, cell, or tissue levels is observed. It is expected to provide the perceived beneficial effects.

[0167] Example 4 Our screened compounds have activity related to multiple age-related diseases. To demonstrate this, a selected subset of synthesized compounds was used to create a base for human cells. The research was completed. As evidence of the concept, the expected effects of reducing inflammation in dolphins were observed. Based on their effectiveness, we selected 14 compounds from our compound library. The pure synthetic forms of these compounds were used in 12 different human primary cells that mimic various disease conditions. Using this system, cell-based activity (multiple age-related diseases and diseases that may affect lifespan) is investigated. Screening was performed for (related to) (Table 4 - Selected compounds in the library) (Description of the primary human cell line used for screening). method

[0168] The Diversity PLUS panel is a system that models various human disease states. This enables unbiased characterization of test reagents across a broad set. The system models the complex human tissue and disease biology of the vascular system, skin, lungs, and inflammatory tissues. Designed to be activated. This broad panel determines the activity of 148 biomarkers. Using quantitative measurements and comparative analysis of bioactivity from known bioactive agents, four concentrations were determined. Efficacy and function of each selected compound at 740 nm and 2.2, 6.7, and 20 μM We predicted and compared the following.

[0169] The BioMAP system transmits relevant signals that naturally occur in human tissue or pathological conditions. To capture the network, a stimulus (such as cytokines or growth factors) was applied, It is constructed from one or more primary cell types derived from a healthy human donor. Vascular biology involves arterial smooth muscle cells. Similar to the Th1 inflammatory state specific to (CASM3C system), Th1 (3C system) and Th2 (4 It is modeled in both inflammatory environments (H system). Further systems include monocyte-driven Th1 inflammation (LPS). Chronic Th1 inflammation driven by T cell stimulation (SAg system) or macrophage activation. All of the following include T cell-dependent activation of B cells occurring in the disease (lMphg system) and germinal centers (BT system) Reproduces aspects of the physiological immune response. BE3C system (Th1) and BF4T system (Th 2) represents airway inflammation in the lungs, while the MyoF system represents myofibroblast-lung tissue remodeling. This is modeled. Finally, skin biology uses KF3CT to model Th1 skin inflammation. This is handled by the HDF3CGF system, which models stems and wound healing.

(7-17 per system) are selected according to therapeutic and biological significance, and the outcome of the disease or This predicts the effect of a specific drug and is validated using drugs with a known mechanism of action (MoA). Each readout is an immuno-based method for detecting proteins (e.g., ELISA) or Growth and survival rates are quantitatively measured by functional assays. BioMAP reading The components are diverse, including cell surface receptors, cytokines, chemokines, matrix molecules, and yeasts. Includes elements. Overall, the Diversity PLUS panel is a specific BioMAP system. 148 biomarker readouts that capture biological changes occurring within the physiological context of the stem. It includes . Specific BioMAP activity correlates with in vivo biology and diverse physiological systems. To distinguish compounds based on MoA and target selectivity across multiple parameters, The ioMAP profile is being used.

[0171] The activated BioMAP system was incubated with each compound for 24-72 hours. Protein-based biomarkers were measured from the biomass and compared to an untreated control system. Carer activity is indicated by at least one compound concentration being outside the significant envelope and exceeding 20%. A significant effect was considered to have a size (log10 ratio) > 0.1. BioMAP assays currently include metabolic disorders such as hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia. We do not have cell lines to model sexually transmitted diseases; therefore, these assays are not suitable. The evaluation was limited to assessing the potential anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic properties of the compound.
