7 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
C9orf72-carriers and identical twins DNA methylation (DNAm) is a key epigenetic modification and linked to the risk of several neurodegenerative diseases (Supplementary introduction). The cumulative assessment of DNAm levels at age-related CpGs allows the estimation of multi-tissue DNAm age (epigenetic clock), which could be more accurate for assessing biological age than chronological age. Hypermethylation of...
