SCIENCE: Scientists Epigenetic clocks And DNA mutation A new relationship between is discovered, which can help to better understand the aging process. this study “Nature aging” Published in the magazine and sheds light on many mysteries associated with aging.
It has been known for a long time that as our age grows, in our DNA Random Mutations Are. These mutations are caused by the division, radiation, infection and other external effects of cells. Over time, the DNA repair system also weakens, causing Cancer, neurodijan And Diseases to immune system The possibility of increases.
Although, Mutation does not tell the whole story of agingScientists have found that Epigenetic changes – Those who are “above” of DNA – also play an important role in the aging process.
Epigenetic watches Special on DNA Epigenetic markers Identifying a person or tissue Biological age Estimates These markers change in an forecast manner with age, which helps scientists to understand how old a person is biologically, even if his real age is somewhat more.
This research first showed that Mutation in DNA And Epigenetic changes Are connected to each other. Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School scientists Jessie Poganic Has described this study as a “important discovery”. He said that this research Epigennetic watches will help to better understand the way of functioning And can pave the way to develop new strategies to prevent or slow down the aging process.
This study can help scientists to understand the aging process deeply. If we know that Epigentic Change and DNA mutation How to affect aging, then in future Anti-aging techniques And Treatment of diseases to old age New avenues can open.
