Metabolic signature of aging in wild-type C. elegans worms. OPLS model discriminating wild-type
young adults and wild-type
adults (1 predictive component and 3 orthogonal components; R2X = 0.846, R2Y = 0.978, Q2 = 0.956) from Pareto-scaled data set: (A) score plot; (B) loadings
plot resulting from the SRV analysis, showing back-scaled OPLS coefficients
values, colored from the original OPLS coefficients if variables were
found statistically significant after a multiple testing univariate
procedure (Benjaminin-Yekutieli correction); and (C) model validation
resulting from 1000 permutations, demonstrating the model robustness,
because model R2 and Q2 values were significantly higher than random model ones.
(D) Score plot of the projections of slcf-1(tm2258) and eat-2(ad465) adults and young adults in the
OPLS model (A), discriminating wild-type adults, and young adults.
