- Study Design
- Genome-wide association study for longevity-related traits in up to 1345 Framingham Study participants from 330 families; 713 participants achieved age 65 years or greater. A total of 79 potential candidate genes and regions associated with longevity were also studied.
- Conclusions
- Although no genome-wide associations were significant, mutiple SNPs and genes had suggestive associations with age at death
