Researchers have been generating aging clocks for going on twenty years now, and as one might expect there are now lot of these clocks. Even just counting the epigenetic clocks one has a great deal of choice. Most studies that make use of clocks choose to assess only a few of the more prominent options, but as today’s report on a clinical trial of therapeutic plasma exchange makes clear, the right way to go about this is to assess every single clock one can obtain access to – more than 30 clocks and clock variants in this case. The primary challenge in the use of aging clocks as a means to assess the quality of a potential rejuvenation therapy is that one has no idea how any giv…
Therapeutic Plasma Exchange Reduces Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Some Clocks
