Properties of the epigenetic clock and age acceleration

2018-07-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The methylation status of numerous CpG sites in the human genome varies with age. The Horvath epigenetic clock used a wide variety of published DNA methylation data to produce an age prediction that has been widely used to, predict age in unknown samples, and draw conclusions about speed of ageing in various tissues, environments, and diseases.
