Resumo: | The world is aging and therefore it is essential to understand how the development of this process in organisms is, especially in human beings. Its knowing that this phenomenon does not occur in the same way in all individuals, and that there are some with a chronological age of 80 years and yet, they present a condition of a younger subject. Thus, it is essential to join efforts to understand this event. Currently, there are several models for the study of those process, from animal models, to computational or cellular models, with the latter having more advantages. Cell models, namely cell models of fibroblasts, are thus increasingly used for metabolomics research in the aging research since through these techniques we are able to indirectly study the pathways of this process, since this gives valuable insights into the composition of metabolites present in a sample. An approach that combines several of these tools, such as FTIR, MS or NMR, will be an asset and will allow for the study of aging at a molecular level and possible reveal new discoveries. |

É sabido que este fenómeno não ocorre da mesma forma em todos os indivíduos e que existem alguns com idade cronológica de 80 anos e, ainda assim, apresentam uma condição de um indivíduo mais jovem. Assim, é essencial unir esforços para entender este processo. Atualmente, existem vários modelos para o estudo do envelhecimento, desde modelos animais a modelos computacionais ou celulares, sendo que este último apresenta mais vantagens. Modelos celulares, nomeadamente, modelos celulares de fibroblastos são cada vez mais utilizados em metabolómica para a investigação do envelhecimento, pois através destas técnicas é possível estudar indiretamente as vias desse processo, uma vez que fornece informações valiosas sobre a composição dos metabolitos presentes numa amostra. Uma abordagem combinatória dessas ferramentas, como FTIR, MS ou NMR, constitui uma mais valia, permitirá o estudo do envelhecimento a um nível molecular e, possivelmente, revelará novas descobertas.2020-07-29T17:49:47Z2020-07-20T00:00:00Z2020-07-20info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/28961engRocha, Ana Filipa Seixas Fonte dainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T11:56:01Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/28961Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:01:25.236370Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
