Epigenetic aging is a hallmark of chronic diseases. While such epigenetic changes can arise following tissue injury, the cell types most affected remain largely unknown. Here we built a cross-species ...

Scientists have found a link between healthy eating patterns and slower changes associated with biological aging. The ...

Aging may "erase" the epigenetic markers that control gene expression in the brain, and this may snowball to cause unintended consequences, a new mouse study suggests. Tiny chemical messages attached ...

Adults with wheezing mainly caused by chronic pulmonary conditions showed significantly accelerated epigenetic aging than those without wheezing, based on data from more than 2000 individuals.

As detailed in the opening of this editorial, DNA methylation-based epigenetic clocks are used as biomarkers of biological age in human health. Multiple epigenetic clocks have rapidly emerged in the ...

DNA methylation data provide extremely accurate age predictors, but so far, little is known about the dynamics of this epigenomic biomarker over the course of life. A team of researchers from the ...

“Collectively, these findings suggest that increased leisure-time physical activity and reduced sedentary behavior may have beneficial effects on epigenetic aging” “Collectively, these findings ...

Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have published results that shed new light on an old question: what causes aging at the molecular level? Their findings, published ...

If we’re naming things that speed up looking and feeling older, factors such as sun exposure, stress, or smoking may come to mind. But here’s something you might not have considered: worrying about ...

Share on Pinterest Scientists have found a link between diet quality and biological aging. Ana Luz Crespi/Stocksy A group of scientists recently investigated links between diet quality and biological ...

Diabetes drugs have shown surprising benefits for the heart, kidneys, and brain. Now provocative animal research suggests they may influence the biology of aging itself.
