Chronological age and Biological age

Aging is the main risk factor for vascular disease and ensuing cardiovascular events, a leading cause of death worldwide. It is essential to develop early life biomarkers in a aging population which identify individuals who are at high risk of developing vascular damage. Strategies to extend life and health span require understanding of individual differences in age-dependent functional decline which is known as Biological aging. Due to the complex nature of age-associated changes in the arteries, there are different parameters relating to vascular aging which can be measured.  RNA biomarkers can be effective indicators of biological processes by using profiling methods.     Choronological age is the legal age one has lived. It is the age one has lived from date of birth to a certain date, so as to count on the same parameter. Biological age, a natural process is the accumulation of damage to cells and tissues caused by over activation of immune system in the body. It is more a helpfu
