Know More About DNA Methylation genes {Make product title intials capital and avoid this text in {} }
At-home DNA methylation testing evaluates gene-specific epigenetic markers—patterns of DNA methylation at key sites—to estimate biological (epigenetic) age and highlight methylation signatures linked with higher risk for age-related conditions. The test uses a simple saliva or cheek‑swab sample collected at home and sent to a certified UAE laboratory, where methylation levels across selected CpG sites are quantified to produce an epigenetic age and risk profile. These insights can inform personalised preventive strategies—nutrition, exercise, sleep and targeted monitoring—when reviewed with a healthcare professional in Dubai, helping to prioritise screening and modifiable risk factors. This assay does not diagnose disease but provides risk indicators that should be interpreted alongside clinical assessment and traditional tests.
Parameters Measured
- Epigenetic age (DNA methylation age — Horvath & Hannum clocks)
- Age acceleration (epigenetic age minus chronological age)
- Global methylation level (LINE-1 and Alu repeat methylation)
- Gene‑specific promoter methylation: BRCA1, MLH1, MGMT, CDKN2A (p16)
- Targeted CpG-site methylation panel (canonical aging and disease-associated CpGs)
- Disease-risk methylation signatures for cancer, cardiovascular, metabolic and inflammatory conditions
