Epigenetic clock
“Under construction message box;
“Under construction”
Epigenetic clock. Find open-access infographic explaining. More citations, cleanup informal language, move biographical text (move to corresponding biographical article), update with new developments in field, reorganize headings to facilitate future expansion of article (easy to update with new developments).
1st gen clocks (notable):
- Horvath’s Clock (2013),
- Hannum’s Clock (2013),
- Other 1st gen clocks:
Bocklandt (2011),
Skin & Blood Clock (Horvath 2018)
Belsky 2015?
Second-generation epigenetic clocks (notable):
- PhenoAge (Levine, 2018),
- GrimAge (Lu,2019),
- GrimAge-v2 (AgeAccelGrim),
- DunedinPoAm.?
Third generation:
Belsky measures the pace of epigenetic aging rather than a static age in DunedinPACE
Other approaches:
Causality-enriched clocks: CausAge, AdaptAge, and DamAge
Neural network-based models (e.g., DeepMAge, AltumAge)
Ancestry cohorts (iCAS-DNAmAge =Chinese populations)

Oxygen cocktail
Oxygen cocktail: clarify this is *not* a medical treatment, address misinformation.
Anti-inflammatory
Anti-inflammatory (and redirects). Change title? Edit section headings for each drug classes to higher level to allow subsections as needed. New article for “anti-inflammatory diet”? Add to “further reading” section & include non-drug approaches for treating acute & chronic inflammation, other inflammatory proceses.
Parmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics. Cleanup biophysics terms (definitions, methods), add citations.
