概括
通过DNA甲基化测量加速表观遗传年龄 (EAA) 与增加结直肠癌 (CRC) 风险有关. 在一项基于人群的研究中,六个EAA标志物中的四个显示出与较高的CRC发病率有显著的关联.

- 表观遗传学 在表观遗传学中,表观遗传学是指表观遗传学.
- 癌症流行病学 癌症流行病学
- 生物标志物 生物标志物
背景情况:
- 表观遗传衰老加速 (EAA) 反映了生物衰老,并可能影响与年龄相关的疾病风险.
- 结肠直肠癌 (CRC) 是一个重要的公共卫生问题,具有复杂的风险因素.
- 了解CRC风险的新生物标志物对于早期检测和预防至关重要.
研究的目的:

主要方法:
- 在HAPIEE队列中采用了嵌套病例控制研究设计,包括9360名参与者,持续16年.
- 用DNA甲基化数据计算了六种不同的表观遗传年龄 (EA) 尺度及其相应的表观遗传年龄加速 (EAA).
- 进行了统计分析,包括赔率比率 (OR) 和置信区间,以评估EAA和CRC风险之间的关系,并根据相关因素进行调整.
主要成果:
- 四个EAA测量 (Horvath,Hannum,PhenoAge和BLUP) 显示出与事件CRC风险的显著正相关性 (ORs在每分数增加1.20至1.44之间).
- 两个EAA测量 (皮肤和血液 (SB) 和弹性网 (EN)) 显示出与CRC风险的边界反向关联 (ORs为0.86-0.87).

Cancer Prevention
6.2K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Epigenetic Regulation
3.0K
Epigenetic changes alter the physical structure of the DNA without changing the genetic sequence and often regulate whether genes are turned on or off. This regulation ensures that each cell produces only proteins necessary for its function. For example, proteins that promote bone growth are not produced in muscle cells. Epigenetic mechanisms play an essential role in healthy development. Conversely, precisely regulated epigenetic mechanisms are disrupted in diseases like cancer.

Non-LTR Retrotransposons
11.5K
As the name suggests, non-LTR retrotransposons lack the long terminal repeats characteristic of the LTR retrotransposons. Additionally, both LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons use distinct mechanisms of mobilization. Non-LTR retrotransposons are further divided into two classes - Long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) and short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs), both of which occur abundantly in most mammals, including humans. Some of the active non-LTR retrotransposons in humans are L1...
