Epigenetic Clocks and Allostatic Load Reveal Potential Sex-Specific Drivers of Biological Aging

Published: Oct 11, 2019
Abstract
Allostatic load (AL) and epigenetic clocks both attempt to characterize the accelerated aging of biological systems, but at present it is unclear whether these measures are complementary or distinct. This study examines the cross-sectional association of AL with epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) in a subsample of 490 community-dwelling older adults participating in The Irish Longitudinal study on Aging (TILDA). A battery of 14 biomarkers...
