Abstract
This pilot study shows the potential of existing blood DNAm markers for age-determination to analyze other tissues than blood. We identified seven known blood-based DNAm markers for use in muscle, brain, bone, buccal swabs, and blood. Nevertheless, a different reference set for each tissue is needed to adapt for tissue-specific changes of the DNAm over time.
