      Each year, blood transfusions save millions of lives. However, under current blood-matching practices, sensitization to non–self-antigens is an unavoidable adverse side effect of transfusion. We describe a universal donor ...
    • DNA Methylation Age Acceleration Is Not Associated with Age of Onset in Parkinson's Disease 

      Gaare, Johannes Jernqvist; Brügger, Kim; Sanchez Nido, Gonzalo; Tzoulis, Charalampos (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background Epigenetic clocks using DNA methylation (DNAm) to estimate biological age have become popular tools in the study of neurodegenerative diseases. Notably, several recent reports have shown a strikingly similar ...
