Development of a microRNA clock for gestational age in the general population

2026-05-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> DNA methylation (DNAm) has shown promise as a biological marker of gestational age (GA). Here, we aimed to characterize how plasma circulating miRNAs – another epigenetic mechanism regulating gene expression – associate with GA at birth, and to construct a miRNA-based GA clock (miRClock-GA). <h4>Methods</h4> We leveraged 2083 umbilical cord plasma-derived circulating miRNAs from Generation...
