DNA methylation age acceleration and risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease

2018-03-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>INTRODUCTION</h4> The ‘epigenetic clock’ is a DNA methylation-based estimate of biological age and is correlated with chronological age – the greatest risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Genetic and environmental risk factors exist for AD, several of which are potentially modifiable.
