Epigenetic aging and midlife cognitive health: a short article previewing research that links faster molecular aging in the 40s to later everyday memory struggles.
Key Takeaways
- Higher DunedinPACE measured in participants aged 40–49 predicted more prospective memory lapses roughly a decade later.
- In respondents in their forties, higher DunedinPACE was associated with greater irritation from and interference by memory lapses.
- The study found no cross-sectional association between epigenetic aging rate and memory lapses across the full sample at the time of measurement.
