Blood DNA methylation at AMD candidate loci in discordant monozygotic twins.

Scientific reports - 27 Jul 2026

Kananen Fabian, Bode Hannes, Ollikainen Miina, Immonen Ilkka

Abstract excerpt

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of visual impairment in older adults, with both genetic and environmental factors contributing to disease risk. Epigenetic mechanisms, particularly DNA methylation, may mediate the effects of environmental exposures on disease-relevant genes, yet their role in AMD remains poorly understood. To investigate blood DNA methylation differences associated with...
