Exploring the Relationship of Relative Telomere Length and the Epigenetic Clock in the LipidCardio Cohort [PDF]
Telomere length has been accepted widely as a biomarker of aging. Recently, a novel candidate biomarker has been suggested to predict an individual’s chronological age with high accuracy: The epigenetic clock is based on the weighted DNA methylation ...

Predicting cell types and genetic variations contributing to disease by combining GWAS and epigenetic data [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are enriched in individuals suffering from a given disease. Most disease-associated SNPs fall into non-coding regions, so that it is not straightforward to infer

Pregnancy can exacerbate or prompt the onset of stress-related disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD is associated with heightened stress responsivity and emotional dysregulation, as well as increased risk of chronic disorders ...

Menopause accelerates biological aging [PDF]
Although epigenetic processes have been linked to aging and disease in other systems, it is not yet known whether they relate to reproductive aging. Recently, we developed a highly accurate epigenetic biomarker of age (known as the “epigenetic clock ...

Epigenetic Age Acceleration Was Delayed in Schizophrenia
Abstract Schizophrenia is a serious neuropsychiatric disorder with abnormal age-related neurodevelopmental (or neurodegenerative) trajectories. Although an accelerated aging hypothesis of schizophrenia has been proposed, the quantitative study of the disruption of the physiological trajectory caused by schizophrenia is inconclusive.

Epigenetic clock analysis of blood samples in drug-naive first-episode schizophrenia patients
Background Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe and chronic psychiatric disorder with premature age-related physiological changes. However, numerous previous studies examined the epigenetic age acceleration in SCZ patients and yielded inconclusive results. In

Epigenetic mutation load is weakly correlated with epigenetic age acceleration
DNA methylation (DNAm) age estimators are widely used to study aging-related conditions. It is not yet known whether DNAm age is associated with the accumulation of stochastic epigenetic mutations (SEMs), which reflect dysfunctions of the epigenetic maintenance system.

Epigenetic Age Acceleration [PDF]
See Article by Roetker et al Epigenetic age seems like a concept pulled from a futuristic science-fiction movie where a drop of blood is fed into a machine, in which an algorithm churns through an accumulation of chemical groups coating a strand of DNA and spits out an individual’s true age reflecting a lifetime of experiences and exposures ...

Epigenetic clocks derived from western samples differentially reflect Taiwanese health outcomes
Introduction: Several epigenetic clocks have been developed, with five measures of epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) especially receiving extensive investigations: HannumEAA, IEAA, PhenoEAA, GrimEAA, and DunedinPACE.

DNA methylation age is accelerated in alcohol dependence. [PDF]
Alcohol dependence (ALC) is a chronic, relapsing disorder that increases the burden of chronic disease and significantly contributes to numerous premature deaths each year.
