Clonal Hematopoiesis and Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Elderly Danish Twins [PDF]
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is common in the elderly and has been reported to associate with accelerated epigenetic age (AgeAccel), especially intrinsic (ie, cell-type independent) AgeAccel and to a lesser degree extrinsic AgeAccel, which reflects the immune-cell composition of the peripheral blood.

Background Recently, epigenetic age acceleration—or older epigenetic age in comparison to chronological age—has been robustly associated with mortality and various morbidities.

Evo-devo of human adolescence: beyond disease models of early puberty [PDF]
Despite substantial heritability in pubertal development, much variation remains to be explained, leaving room for the influence of environmental factors to adjust its phenotypic trajectory in the service of fitness goals.

Epigenetic Age Acceleration and Cognitive Decline: A Twin Study
AbstractBackgroundLittle is known about the role of DNA methylation (DNAm) epigenetic age acceleration in cognitive decline. Using a twin study design, we examined whether DNAm age acceleration is related to cognitive decline measured longitudinally in persons without a clinical diagnosis of dementia.MethodsWe studied 266 paired male twins (133 pairs ...

Pre-reproductive parental enriching experiences influence progeny’s developmental trajectories [PDF]
While the positive effects of environmental enrichment (EE) applied after weaning, in adulthood, during aging, or even in the presence of brain damage have been widely described, the transgenerational effects of pre-reproductive EE have been less ...

Epigenetic age acceleration correlates with BMI in young adults
Obesity increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, several types of cancer, and other age-related disorders. Among older adults, obesity is also related to epigenetic age, typically measured with DNA methylation (DNAm). Because less is known about obesity and epigenetic aging earlier in the lifespan, this study examined the ...

Background & Aims: A DNA methylation (DNAm) signature derived from 353 CpG sites (the Horvath clock) has been proposed as an epigenetic measure of chronological and biological age.

Effect of metformin on the epigenetic age of peripheral blood in patients with diabetes mellitus
Background: Metformin has been proven to have an antiaging effect. However, studies on how metformin affects global epigenetic regulation and its effect on the epigenetic clock in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients are limited.

Background Aging has been reported as a major risk factor for severe symptoms and higher mortality rates in COVID-19 patients. Molecular hallmarks such as epigenetic alterations and telomere attenuation reflect the biological process of aging. Epigenetic
