Association between sleep disordered breathing and epigenetic age acceleration: Evidence from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

摘要

Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a common disorder that results in oxidative stress and inflammation and is associated with multiple age-related health outcomes. Epigenetic age acceleration is a DNA methylation (DNAm)-based marker of fast biological aging. We examined the associations of SDB traits with epigenetic age acceleration.
