Accelerated biological aging was associated with a higher risk of early-onset solid cancers in young adults, particularly lung, gastrointestinal, and uterine cancers, suggesting that biological aging may help explain the rising incidence of cancer in recent generations. In a study of 154,169 young adults from the UK Biobank, systemic biological […]
