The sentences
Most of the peptides show an increasing trend during aging ( Fig. 4 c–e) and a limited number of these peptides had significantly lower levels in individuals of ≤6 months: C1QA (SLG), C1QB (FDH), C1QC (FQS) C1R (GYG), C5 (ILS, ITH, ELS), C8 (MES, IPG), C9 (VVE, LSP, TSN), C4BP (LSL, ALL), ficolin-3 (LLG), CFAB (DAQ, STG, YGL), and clusterin (ASS, IDS).
