DNA Methylation as a Biomarker of Aging in Epidemiologic Studies.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2018

Lim Unhee, Song Min-Ae

Abstract excerpt

Cancer is largely an aging disease. Accelerated biological aging may be the strongest predictor of cancer and other chronic disease risks. In the absence of reliable and quantifiable biomarkers of aging to date, it has long been observed that tumorigenesis shares distinct epigenetic alterations with the aging process. Recently, epigenetic age estimates have been developed based on the availability of genome-wide...
