Epigenetic clocks are not accelerated in COVID-19 patients

2020-11-16

Abstract excerpt

Age is a major risk factor for severe outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but it remains unclear if this is rather due to increased chronological age or biological age. During lifetime, specific DNA methylation changes are acquired in our genome that act as “epigenetic clocks” allowing to estimate donor age and to provide a surrogate marker for biological age. In this study, we followed the hypothesis...
