Paternal germ line aging: DNA methylation age prediction from human sperm
22 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The relationship between aging and epigenetic profiles has been highlighted in many recent studies. Models using somatic cell methylomes to predict age have been successfully constructed. However, gamete aging is quite distinct and as such age prediction using sperm methylomes is ineffective with current techniques. RESULTS: We have produced a model that utilizes human sperm DNA methylation signatures...
