Ageing-associated DNA methylation dynamics are a molecular readout of lifespan variation among mammalian species

Abstract Background Mammalian species exhibit a wide range of lifespans. To date, a robust and dynamic molecular readout of these lifespan differences has not yet been identified. Recent studies have established the existence of ageing-associated differentially methylated positions (aDMPs) in human...
