DNA methylation signatures reflect aging in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
24 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
A DNA methylation (DNAm) signature (the "Horvath clock") has been proposed as a measure of human chronological and biological age. We determined peripheral blood DNAm in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and assessed whether accelerated aging occurs in these patients. DNAm signatures were obtained in patients with biopsy-proven NASH and stage 2-3 fibrosis. The DNAm profile from one test and two...
