Epigenetic aging acceleration among World Trade Center-exposed community members

open access: yesScientific Reports
Aging is a complex biological process, and some individuals are aging faster or slower than expected. This phenomenon of aging acceleration occurs when biological age exceeds chronological age and can be assessed by epigenetic clock estimation.

Opportunities for organoids as new models of aging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The biology of aging is challenging to study, particularly in humans. As a result, model organisms are used to approximate the physiological context of aging in humans. However, the best model organisms remain expensive and time-consuming to use.

Does accelerated epigenetic ageing predict accelerated future musculoskeletal ageing?

open access: yes, 2022
The ability to predict those at risk of more rapid musculoskeletal ageing is vital if therapeutic strategies are to be successful. Precise description of the ageing musculoskeletal phenotype combined with the mapping of epigenetic changes, specifically those within the DNA methylome, enable precise age prediction and ‘epigenetic clocks’ have been ...

Tailoring Vascular‐Immune Homeostasis via Manganese‐DNA Complex‐Armed Immunogenic Extracellular Vesicles for Pancreatic Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Mn2⁺–tumor DNA complexes encapsulated in dendritic cell (DC)– derived immunogenic extracellular vesicles (EVDC@Mn‐DNA) act as a DC‐specific cGAS– STING activator. EVDC@Mn‐DNA treatment enhances intratumoral DC activation, improves tumor vascular function, promotes CD8⁺ T cell activity, and suppresses pancreatic tumor growth,

Epigenetic dysregulation in chronic myeloid leukaemia: A myriad of mechanisms and therapeutic options [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The onset of global epigenetic changes in chromatin that drive tumor proliferation and heterogeneity is a hallmark of many forms cancer. Identifying the epigenetic mechanisms that govern these changes and developing therapeutic approaches to modulate ...

Microglia Mitochondria Support Neuronal Maturation via Metabolic and Transcriptional Reprogramming in Human 3D In Vitro Brain Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
xx xx. ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by disrupted neuronal circuit maturation. Emerging evidence implicates microglial function and mitochondrial regulation as contributors to ASD‐associated biology, yet the mechanisms linking these processes to neuronal development remain poorly defined ...

Epigenetic age acceleration is associated with blood lipid levels in a multi-ancestry sample of older U.S. adults

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics
Background Dyslipidemia, which is characterized by an unfavorable lipid profile, is a key risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Understanding the relationships between epigenetic aging and lipid levels may help guide early prevention and ...

Anti‐Apoptotic and Neurite‐Protective Nanomedicine Augments Embryonic Stem Cells‐Derived Retinal Ganglion Cell Transplantation in Glaucoma Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lithium‐epigallocatechin gallate nanoparticles (Li‐EGCG NPs) are co‐transplanted with embryonic stem cell‐derived retinal ganglion cells (ESC‐RGCs) to enhance cell survival and therapeutic efficacy in an acute pathological glaucomatous injury model. This synergistic approach protects RGC cells, preserves retinal structure and improves visual function ...

Heavy metals, epigenetic aging, and mortality: A cohort study

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
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 ...
