DNA methylation entropy is a biomarker for aging
12 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
The dynamic nature of epigenetic modifications has been leveraged to construct epigenetic clocks that accurately predict an individual's age based on DNA methylation levels. Here we explore whether the accumulation of epimutations, which can be quantified by Shannon's entropy, changes reproducibly with age. Using targeted bisulfite sequencing, we analyzed the associations between age, entropy, and methylation...
