Differential white blood cell count and epigenetic clocks: a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study
27 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human aging and white blood cell (WBC) count are complex traits influenced by multiple genetic factors. Predictors of chronological age have been developed using epigenetic clocks. However, the bidirectional causal effects between epigenetic clocks and WBC count have not been fully examined.
