Recalibrating the Epigenetic Clock: Implications for Assessing Biological Age in the Human Cortex
2020-04-28
Abstract excerpt
Human DNA-methylation data have been used to develop biomarkers of ageing - referred to ‘epigenetic clocks’ - that have been widely used to identify differences between chronological age and biological age in health and disease including neurodegeneration, dementia and other brain phenotypes. Existing DNA methylation clocks are highly accurate in blood but are less precise when used in older samples or on brain ti...
