Human longevity and variation in GH/IGF-1/insulin signaling, DNA damage signaling and repair and pro/antioxidant pathway genes: cross sectional and longitudinal studies.
(Exp Gerontol, 2012-05)
Here we explore association with human longevity of common genetic variation in three
major candidate pathways: GH/IGF-1/insulin signaling, DNA damage signaling and repair
and pro/antioxidants by investigating 1273 tagging ...
A meta-analysis of four genome-wide association studies of survival to age 90 years or older: the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology Consortium.
(J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci, 2010-05)
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) may yield insights into longevity.
METHODS: We performed a meta-analysis of GWAS in Caucasians from four prospective
cohort studies: the Age, Gene/Environment Susceptibi...
Design, recruitment, logistics, and data management of the GEHA (Genetics of Healthy Ageing) project.
(Exp Gerontol, 2011-11)
In 2004, the integrated European project GEHA (Genetics of Healthy Ageing) was initiated
with the aim of identifying genes involved in healthy ageing and longevity. The first
step in the project was the recruitment of more ...
DNA methylation age is associated with mortality in a longitudinal Danish twin study.
(Aging Cell, 2016-02)
An epigenetic profile defining the DNA methylation age (DNAm age) of an individual
has been suggested to be a biomarker of aging, and thus possibly providing a tool
for assessment of health and mortality. In this study, ...
