abstract = {Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) includes a
heterogeneous group of disorders pathologically
characterized by the degeneration of the frontal and
temporal lobes. In addition to major genetic contributors of
FTLD such as mutations in MAPT, GRN, and C9orf72, recent
work has identified several epigenetic modifications
including significant differential DNA methylation in DLX1,
and OTUD4 loci. As aging remains one of the major risk
factors for FTLD, we investigated the presence of
accelerated epigenetic aging in FTLD compared to controls.
We calculated epigenetic age in both peripheral blood and
brain tissues of multiple FTLD subtypes using several DNA
methylation clocks, i.e., DNAmClockMulti, DNAmClockHannum,
DNAmClockCortical, GrimAge, and PhenoAge, and determined age
acceleration and its association with different cellular
proportions and clinical traits. Significant epigenetic age
acceleration was observed in the peripheral blood of both
frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and progressive supranuclear
palsy (PSP) patients compared to controls with
DNAmClockHannum, even after accounting for confounding
factors. A similar trend was observed with both
DNAmClockMulti and DNAmClockCortical in post-mortem frontal
cortex tissue of PSP patients and in FTLD cases harboring
GRN mutations. Our findings support that increased
epigenetic age acceleration in the peripheral blood could be
an indicator for PSP and to a smaller extent, FTD.},
