24 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Epigenetic changes may result from the interplay of environmental exposures and genetic influences and contribute to differences in age-related disease, disability, and mortality risk. However, the etiologies contributing to stability and change in DNA methylation have rarely been examined longitudinally. METHODS: We considered DNA methylation in whole blood leukocyte DNA across a 10-year span in two...
