Epigenetics Panel & Report
Understanding
Epigenetics
Epigenetics is the science of how gene activity is regulated without altering the DNA sequence. It focuses on methylation patterns, molecular “switches” that turn genes on or off—affecting cellular function, inflammation control, immune balance, cognitive performance, and vision health.
By studying these methylation markers, healthcare professionals gain deeper insight into biological aging trajectories, enabling personalized interventions to support longevity, disease prevention, and improved patient outcomes.
Overview
- The Epigenetics Panel by ExtendingMe analyzes key CpG methylation markers across vision, immune, and brain-related pathways to uncover hidden patterns of biological aging. It empowers healthcare professionals to detect early risks, personalize care strategies, and enhance overall patient health outcomes.
- Our Epigenetics Panel generates a Methylation Score - a composite metric that reflects biological function and gene regulation in the present moment.
What This Test Covers
The panel evaluates three core areas critical to healthy aging
Vision Aging
Assesses methylation markers impacting retinal resilience, mitochondrial function, oxidative defense, and susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration.
Immune Aging
Examines methylation-driven changes affecting inflammation control, oxidative balance, immune cell stability, and overall immune resilience.
Brain and Cognition
Analyzes markers linked to synaptic function, cognitive performance, and neuroprotection, enabling early detection of cognitive decline risks.
Why It Matters
- Assesses the current biological state of gene expression, not just inherited risk
- Detects early signs of dysfunction in vision, brain, and immune systems before symptoms appear
- Methylation insights guide targeted nutrition, supplementation, labs to consider and lifestyle strategies
- Methylation scores serve as an aging biomarker, tracking measurable progress or decline over time
