Epigenetic Drift Correction

Meaning

Epigenetic Drift Correction refers to the clinical and biological goal of reversing the accumulation of non-random, age-associated changes in DNA methylation and histone modification patterns that impair gene function. This ‘drift’ away from the youthful, optimal epigenetic state contributes to cellular senescence and the functional decline associated with aging and chronic disease. Correction strategies aim to restore a more resilient and precise pattern of gene expression. This is a central concept in the pursuit of biological longevity and optimized hormonal health.
