Utilizing epigenetics to study the shared nature of development and biological aging across the lifespan
21 Mar 2024
Abstract excerpt
Recently, biological aging has been quantified in DNA-methylation samples of older adults and applied as so-called "methylation profile scores" (MPSs) in separate target samples, including samples of children. This nascent research indicates that (1) biological aging can be quantified early in the life course, decades before the onset of aging-related disease, (2) is affected by common environmental predictors of...
