Researchers identified a turning point in aging acceleration around age 50 in humans precisely

The study analyzed proteins in human bodies across various adult ages and organ systems thoroughly

Blood vessels and organs like the aorta, pancreas, and spleen show significant aging-related changes rapidly

The researchers collected tissue samples from 76 organ donors between ages 14 and 68 carefully

They constructed a catalogue of proteins in different tissues and tracked age-related changes accurately

Expressions of 48 disease-related proteins increased with age, including cardiovascular and liver conditions severely

The most significant changes occurred between ages 45 and 55, with substantial proteomic remodeling observed

The study's findings suggest human aging is a complicated, step-wise process involving different body systems
