Report on a proof-of-concept study linking gut microbiome composition to DNA methylation pace-of-aging measures and identifying candidate taxa for follow-up.
Key Takeaways
- Microbiome-based EpiBiome models significantly predicted DunedinPACE at species and genus levels
- Bifidobacterium adolescentis was the strongest predictor of decelerated biological aging
- Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens showed the strongest association with accelerated biological aging
