Variations in Innate Immune Cell Subtypes Correlate with Epigenetic Clocks, Inflammaging and Health Outcomes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uses a high‐resolution DNA methylation reference panel for 19 immune cell‐types, as well as transcriptomic, metabolomic, and large population cohort data to show that age‐related epigenetic heterogeneity within monocytes correlates with inflammaging, biological age, and all‐causemortality, and does so more strongly than existing monocyte ...
