Epigenetic age acceleration predicts cancer, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality in a German case cohort

2 Jun 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have developed models predicting methylation age from DNA methylation in blood and other tissues (epigenetic clock) and suggested the difference between DNA methylation and chronological ages as a marker of healthy aging. The goal of this study was to confirm and expand such observations by investigating whether different concepts of the epigenetic clocks in a population-based cohort...
