Grip strength is inversely associated with DNA methylation age acceleration

Mark D. Peterson et al.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the association between grip strength and DNAm age acceleration. The results show a strong and independent cross-sectional and longitudinal association between grip strength and DNAm age acceleration. Men and women with lower grip strength and loss of strength over time may experience accelerated aging.

The Association Between Epigenetic Clocks and Physical Functioning in Older Women: A 3-Year Follow-up

Tiina Fohr et al.

Summary: The study found that DNAm GrimAge is associated with decline in physical functioning in older women, while other epigenetic clocks such as DNAmAge and PhenoAge have weaker associations with physical function decline.

Epigenetic Aging Mediates the Association between Pain Impact and Brain Aging in Middle to Older Age Individuals with Knee Pain

Jessica A. Peterson et al.

Summary: Chronic musculoskeletal pain is associated with accelerated brain aging and epigenetic aging, with a modest correlation between the two. The study suggests that pain may drive accelerated brain aging through epigenetic interactions.

Epigenetic age predictors in community-dwelling adults with high impact knee pain

Yenisel Cruz-Almeida et al.

Summary: Gerontological research shows that there is significant individual variability in aging phenotypes, and recent evidence indicates a connection between high impact chronic pain and accelerated biological aging. This study aimed to investigate the association between multiple epigenetic aging biomarkers and high impact chronic pain in middle to older age adults. The results revealed that certain epigenetic clocks were significantly related to pain-related disability and knee pain intensity. Additionally, pain catastrophizing, depressive symptomatology, and neuropathic pain symptoms were associated with an older epigenome. Further research is needed to understand the potential of epigenetic aging in identifying individuals with chronic pain at higher risk of functional decline and poorer health outcomes.

Accelerated Epigenetic Aging Mediates the Association between Vitamin D Levels and Knee Pain in Community-Dwelling Individuals

L. J. Strath et al.

Summary: There is a relationship between vitamin D levels and pain intensity and disability, and this relationship is mediated by epigenetics. Improving nutrition status can help promote healthy aging and reduce pain.

GrimAge Outperforms Other Epigenetic Clocks in the Prediction of Age-Related Clinical Phenotypes and All-Cause Mortality

Cathal McCrory et al.

Summary: The study indicates that the GrimAge clock is a significant improvement in predicting age-related decline in various clinical phenotypes compared to other epigenetic clocks, showing better predictive utility and promising to advance precision medicine.

Sex Differences in Adaptations in Muscle Strength and Size Following Resistance Training in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Matthew D. Jones et al.

Summary: The study found sex differences in adaptations to resistance training in older adults, with females gaining more relative lower-body strength compared to males, while males gaining more absolute upper-body strength, lower-body strength, and muscle size. The interpretation of sex-dependent adaptations is heavily influenced by the presentation of results in either an absolute or relative context.

Summary: The study found that DNA methylation-based biological age is positively associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes, particularly among obese individuals. Additionally, GrimAge partially mediates the association between cumulative obesity and diabetes or prediabetes.

The effect of exercise on quality of life and activities of daily life in frail older adults: A systematic review of randomised control trials

Evan Campbell et al.

Summary: The systematic review examined the effects of exercise on quality of life and activities of daily living in frail older adults, finding positive effects in 10 out of 15 studies. Improvement in QoL and ADLs was only seen in studies reporting improved physical outcomes, indicating the interconnected nature of frailty and quality of life.
