Dietary Intervention Modifies DNA Methylation Age Assessed by the Epigenetic Clock
Abstract
Scope: Alterations in DNA methylation patterns are correlated with aging, environmental exposures, and disease pathophysiology; the possibility of reverting or preventing these processes through dietary intervention is gaining momentum. In particular, methyl donors that provide S‐adenosyl‐methionine for one‐carbon metabolism and polyphenols such as flavanols that inhibit the activity of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) can be key modifiers of epigenetic patterns. Methods and results: DNA methylation patterns are assessed in publicly available Illumina Infinium 450K methylation datasets from intervention studies with either folic acid + vitamin B12 (GSE74548) or monomeric and oligomeric flavanols (MOF) (GSE54690) in 44 and 13 participants, respectively. Global DNA methylation levels are increased in unmethylated regions such as CpG islands and shores following folic acid + vitamin B12 supplementation and decreased in highly methylated regions, including shelves and open‐seas, following intervention with MOF. After supplementation with folic acid + vitamin B12, epigenetic age, estimated by the Horvath “epigenetic clock” model, is reduced in women with the MTHFR 677CC genotype. Conclusions: The effects of supplementation with folic acid + vitamin B12 and MOF on DNA methylation age are dependent upon gender and MTHFR genotype. Additionally, the findings demonstrate the potential for these dietary factors to modulate global DNA methylation profiles.

The finding that CR modified DunedinPACE in a randomized controlled trial supports the geroscience hypothesis.
“The finding that CR modified DunedinPACE in a randomized controlled trial supports the geroscience hypothesis, building on evidence from small and uncontrolled studies14–16 and contrasting with reports that biological aging may not be modifiable17.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
