Epigenome-wide association study identifies DNA methylation loci associated with handgrip strength in Chinese monozygotic twins

Background: The decline in muscle strength and function with aging is well recognized, but remains poorly characterized at the molecular level. Here, we report the epigenetic relationship between genome-wide DNA methylation and handgrip strength (HGS) among Chinese monozygotic (MZ) twins.Methods: DN...
