Assessing the Utility of Epigenetic Clocks for Health Prediction in South Korean

The development and recent increase in the application of epigenetic clocks in healthcare research has primarily been focused among European, African, or Hispanic individuals. The use of epigenetic clocks is limited among the east Asian population despite having notable differences in epigenetic clocks among various ethnic groups. If the biological age is higher than chronological age, it is called Epigenetic Age Acceleration (EAA). It is typically derived by regressing the epigenetic age of clocks on chronological age, assessing whether individuals are aging faster or slower than their chronological age. EAA indicates higher risk of chronic diseases, mortality, and adverse health outcomes and thereby indicates faster aging.
