Association of blood cadmium levels with epigenetic age acceleration in U.S. adults aged > 50 years
ObjectivesDNA methylation (DNAm) is a sensitive biomarker of aging-related processes, and novel epigenetic-based “clocks” can estimate accelerated biological aging.

Cytomegalovirus infection accelerates epigenetic aging
Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation (DNAm) have a central role in the regulation of gene expression and thereby in cellular differentiation and tissue homeostasis. It has recently been shown that aging is associated with profound changes in DNAm. Several of these methylation changes take place in a clock-like fashion, i.e.

Background Epigenetic mechanisms might play a role in modulating susceptibility to bipolar disorder (BD) and response to lithium, the mainstay treatment for BD. Additionally, individuals with BD experience accelerated biological aging.

Human epigenetic ageing is logarithmic with time across the entire lifespan
Epigenetic changes during ageing have been characterized by multiple epigenetic clocks that allow the prediction of chronological age based on methylation status.

Heavy metals, epigenetic aging, and mortality: A cohort study
Background: Aging is a multifaceted biological process modulated by interplay of genetic determinants and environmental influences. However, the role of epigenetic aging in the association between environmental exposures and mortality risk in human ...
