Abstract

Sex differences in aging manifest in disparities in disease prevalence, physical health, and lifespan, where women tend to have greater longevity relative to men. However, in the Mediterranean Blue Zones of Sardinia (Italy) and Ikaria (Greece) are regions of centenarian abundance, male-female centenarian ratios are approximately one, diverging from the typical trend and making these useful regions in which to study sex differences of the oldest old. Additionally, these regions can be investigated as examples of healthy aging relative to other populations. DNA methylation (DNAm)-based predictors have been developed to assess various health biomarkers, including biological age, Pace of Aging, serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), and telomere length. Epigenetic clocks are biological age predictors whose deviation from chronological age has been indicative of relative health differences between individuals, making these useful tools for interrogating these differences in aging. We assessed sex differences between the Horvath, Hannum, GrimAge, PhenoAge, Skin and Blood, and Pace of Aging predictors from individuals in two Mediterranean Blue Zones and found that men displayed positive epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) compared to women according to all clocks, with significantly greater rates according to GrimAge (β = 3.55; = 1.22 × 10), Horvath (β = 1.07; = 0.00378) and the Pace of Aging (β = 0.0344; = 1.77 × 10). Other DNAm-based biomarkers findings indicated that men had lower DNAm-predicted serum IL-6 scores (β = -0.00301, = 2.84 × 10), while women displayed higher DNAm-predicted proportions of regulatory T cells than men from the Blue Zone ( = 0.0150, 95% Confidence Interval [0.00131, 0.0117], Cohen's d = 0.517). All clocks showed better correlations with chronological age in women from the Blue Zones than men, but all clocks showed large mean absolute errors (MAE >30 years) in both sexes, except for PhenoAge (MAE <5 years). Thus, despite their equal survival to older ages in these Mediterranean Blue Zones, men in these regions remain biologically older by most measured DNAm-derived metrics than women, with the exception of the IL-6 score and proportion of regulatory T cells.

摘要

衰老过程中的性别差异体现在疾病患病率、身体健康状况和寿命的差异上,女性相对于男性往往具有更长的寿命。然而,在意大利撒丁岛和希腊伊卡里亚岛的地中海蓝色地带,这些地区百岁老人数量众多,男女百岁老人比例约为1,这与典型趋势不同,使这些地区成为研究最年长者性别差异的有用区域。此外,相对于其他人群,这些地区可作为健康衰老的范例进行研究。基于DNA甲基化(DNAm)的预测指标已被开发出来,用于评估各种健康生物标志物,包括生物学年龄、衰老速度、血清白细胞介素-6(IL-6)和端粒长度。表观遗传时钟是生物学年龄预测指标,其与实际年龄的偏差已表明个体之间的相对健康差异,使其成为探究衰老差异的有用工具。我们评估了来自两个地中海蓝色地带个体的霍瓦斯、汉纳姆、GrimAge、PhenoAge、皮肤和血液以及衰老速度预测指标之间的性别差异,发现根据所有时钟,男性与女性相比表现出正的表观遗传年龄加速(EAA),根据GrimAge(β = 3.55;P = 1.22 × 10)、霍瓦斯(β = 1.07;P = 0.00378)和衰老速度(β = 0.0344;P = 1.77 × 10),男性的加速率显著更高。其他基于DNAm的生物标志物研究结果表明,男性的DNAm预测血清IL-6得分较低(β = -0.00301,P = 2.84 × 10),而来自蓝色地带的女性显示出比男性更高的DNAm预测调节性T细胞比例(P = 0.0150,95%置信区间[0.00131, 0.0117],科恩d值 = 0.517)。所有时钟与蓝色地带女性的实际年龄相关性均优于男性,但除PhenoAge(平均绝对误差<5岁)外,所有时钟在两性中均显示出较大的平均绝对误差(MAE>30岁)。因此,尽管在这些地中海蓝色地带男女活到高龄的几率相同,但除了IL-6得分和调节性T细胞比例外,这些地区的男性在大多数基于DNAm测量的指标上生物学年龄仍比女性大。
