Abstract

Epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) is a biomarker of biological aging associated with multiple diseases. Plasma metabolites are potential targets for disease prevention. Therefore, our study aims to investigate the association between plasma metabolites and EAA.

The following analysis is generated by AI and may contain errors. It is separate from the authors’ abstract and is not peer review.

Research summary

The study investigates the association between plasma metabolites and epigenetic age acceleration. This research is relevant as it explores potential biological markers and mechanisms related to aging, which could contribute to understanding and addressing the root causes of aging.
