Methylation age acceleration does not predict mortality in schizophrenia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is associated with high mortality. DNA methylation levels vary over the life course, and pre-selected combinations of methylation array probes can be used to estimate "methylation age" (mAge). mAge correlates highly with chronological

Prenatal and early life influences on epigenetic age in children:a study of mother-offspring pairs from two cohort studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA methylation-based biomarkers of aging are highly correlated with actual age. Departures of methylation-estimated age from actual age can be used to define epigenetic measures of child development or age acceleration (AA) in adults.

Lifetime Stress Accelerates Epigenetic Aging

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2015
Background Psychological stress is associated with accelerated cellular aging and increased risk for aging-related diseases, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Methods We examined the effect of stress on a DNA methylation age predictor that was shown to correlate strongly with chronological age across human tissues (Horvath 2013).

Associations of green and blue space exposure in pregnancy with epigenetic gestational age acceleration

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2023
Early life is seen as a particularly sensitive period for environmental exposures. Natural space exposure during pregnancy has been associated with offspring health.

DNA repair‐deficient premature aging models display accelerated epigenetic age

open access: yesAging Cell, 2023
Abstract Several premature aging mouse models have been developed to study aging and identify interventions that can delay age‐related diseases. Yet, it is still unclear whether these models truly recapitulate natural aging.

Age-dependent expression of DNMT1 and DNMT3B in PBMCs from a large European population enrolled in the MARK-AGE study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aging is associated with alterations in the content and patterns of DNA methylation virtually throughout the entire human lifespan. Reasons for these variations are not well understood.

DNA methylation and the epigenetic clock in relation to physical frailty in older people: the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2018
Background The biological mechanisms underlying frailty in older people are poorly understood. There is some evidence to suggest that DNA methylation patterns may be altered in frail individuals.

DNA methylation dynamics in aging: How far are we from understanding the mechanisms? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
DNA methylation is currently the most promising molecular marker for monitoring aging and predicting life expectancy. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related DNA methylation changes remain mostly undiscovered.Here we discuss the current knowledge ...

Accelerated aging in perinatally HIV-infected children: clinical manifestations and pathogenetic mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Premature aging and related diseases have been documented in HIV-infected adults. Data are now emerging also regarding accelerated aging process in HIV-infected children. METHODS: A narrative review was performed searching studies on PubMed
