Sex‐Chromosome‐Dependent Ageing in Female Heterogametic Methylomes

ABSTRACT Recent research in humans and both model and non‐model animals has shown that DNA methylation (DNAm), an epigenetic modification, is one of the mechanisms underlying the ageing process. DNAm‐based indices predict mortality and provide valuable insights into biological ageing mechanisms. Alt...
