Aging is strongly associated with changes in DNA methylation, which can be altered by dietary interventions. Several dietary factors have been investigated for their ability to influence DNA methylation patterns and potentially slow down the aging process. CD BioSciences provides analysis services of the effects of dietary interventions on longevity using DNA methylation to support the research and development of longevity foods and drugs.
Nutrient-specific interventions
Our expert team at CD BioSciences customizes protocols for different nutrient or calorie-restricted studies, including folic acid, vitamin B12, niacin, vitamin E, retinol, calcium, etc., providing valuable data for dietary recommendations.
Dietary patterns interventions
We also specialize in evaluating the influence of broader dietary patterns on DNA methylation. Rather than focusing on individual nutrients or bioactive compounds, studying broader dietary patterns allows for a more comprehensive assessment of the overall diet's impact on DNA methylation.
We provide research services for the evaluation of dietary interventions to prevent aging and prolong life, exploring the specific utility and mechanisms of various nutrients and caloric intake. The study is primarily using animal models and all animal experiments comply with all regulations.
We will conduct a comprehensive comparative genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of young and old animal samples along the following lines as shown below to investigate the effects of short-term dietary interventions on age-related methylation.
DNA methylation sequencing
We prepare DNA samples from experimental animals, construct DNA libraries, pool sequence data, and perform bioinformatics analysis of the data.
Differential methylation regional analysis
We identify age-related differentially methylated regions by comparing experimental samples between different groups, as well as regions of abnormal methylation shown in the presence of short-term dietary interventions.
Analysis of aging-associated methylation altered by dietary interventions
We analyze whether aging-associated methylation is improved or reversed in the presence of dietary intervention and perform pathway enrichment analysis.
