Epigenetic measures of ageing predict the prevalence and incidence of leading causes of death and disease burden

BACKGROUND: Individuals of the same chronological age display different rates of biological ageing. A number of measures of biological age have been proposed which harness age-related changes in DNA methylation profiles. These measures include five ‘epigenetic clocks’ which provide an index of how m...
