Histone modifications in biological age determination: mechanisms, biomarkers, and therapeutic perspectives

Key Points

• Biological age can be better determined through specific histone modifications, offering insights into aging processes.
• Key evidence shows that modified histones correlate closely with biological age metrics, enhancing diagnosis accuracy.
• Analysis of various biomarkers indicates histone modifications play a significant role in understanding aging mechanisms.
• This approach supports novel therapeutic strategies targeting epigenetic changes to promote healthy aging.
