Comparative validation of an epigenetic mortality risk score with three aging biomarkers for predicting mortality risks among older adult males
5 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A 'mortality risk score' (MS) based on ten prominent mortality-related cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites was previously associated with all-cause mortality, but has not been verified externally. We aimed to validate the association of MS with mortality and to compare MS with three aging biomarkers: telomere length (TL), DNA methylation age (DNAmAge) and phenotypic age (DNAmPhenoAge) to explore...
