Differential DNA methylation and lymphocyte proportions in a Costa Rican high longevity region
BACKGROUND: The Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica has one of the highest old-age life expectancies in the world, but the underlying biological mechanisms of this longevity are not well understood. As DNA methylation is hypothesized to be a component of biological aging, we focused on this malleable epi...
