Bloom syndrome patients and mice display accelerated epigenetic aging
AbstractBloom syndrome (BSyn) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the BLM gene, which is involved in genome stability. Patients with BSyn present with poor growth, sun sensitivity, mild immunodeficiency, diabetes, and increased risk of cancer, most commonly leukemias.

Association of Epigenetic Age and Outcome in Critically Ill Patients
OBJECTIVES:. DNA methylation can be used to determine an individual’s biological age, as opposed to chronological age, an indicator of underlying health status.

Accelerated Epigenetic Ageing in Major Depressive Disorder [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMajor depressive disorder (MDD) is a severe, heritable psychiatric disorder associated with shortened lifespan and comorbidities of advancing age. It is unknown however whether MDD is associated with accelerated biological ageing relative to chronological age.

Alcohol consumption and epigenetic age acceleration across human adulthood
The alcohol-associated biological aging remains to be studied across adulthood. We conducted linear regression analyses to investigate the associations between alcohol consumption and two DNA methylation-based biological age acceleration metrics in 3823 Framingham Heart Study participants (24-92 years and 53.8% women) adjusting for covariates.

Epigenetic age acceleration is a risk factor for chronic diseases of ageing and may reflect aspects of biological ageing. However, few studies have examined epigenetic ageing during the early neonatal period in preterm infants, who are at heightened risk

Epigenetic Age Acceleration Assessed with Human White-Matter Images [PDF]
The accurate estimation of age using methylation data has proved a useful and heritable biomarker, with acceleration in epigenetic age predicting a number of age-related phenotypes. Measures of white matter integrity in the brain are also heritable and highly sensitive to both normal and pathological aging processes across adulthood.

Short Sleep and Insomnia Are Associated With Accelerated Epigenetic Age
ABSTRACT Objective Short sleep and insomnia are each associated with a greater risk of age-related disease, which suggests that insufficient sleep may accelerate biological aging. We examine whether short sleep and insomnia alone or together relates to epigenetic age among older adults.

Sex differences in epigenetic ageing for older people living with HIVResearch in context
Summary: Background: HIV-1 infection impacts biological ageing, and epigenetic clocks highlight epigenetic age acceleration in people with HIV. Despite evidence indicating sex differences in clinical, immunological, and virological measures, females ...
