Abstract

. DNAmTL is not only an epigenetic biomarker of replicative history of cells, but a useful marker of age-related pathologies that are associated with it.

  • Yang et al. and Lu et al. trained clocks on cellular features - mitotic cell division and telomere length, respectively - to develop models with specific sensitivity for these aspects of cellular ageing.

    “Yang et al.62 and Lu et al.167 took a different approach and trained clocks on cellular features — mitotic cell division and telomere length, respectively — to develop models with specific sensitivity for these aspects of cellular ageing.”

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.
