Background: Metformin has been proven to have an antiaging effect. However, studies on how metformin affects global epigenetic regulation and its effect on the epigenetic clock in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients are limited. This study aims to investigate the impact of metformin on the epigenetic age in subjects with type 2 DM.

Results: We collected the peripheral blood of the metformin group and the no-metformin group of the 32 DM patients. Three previously established epigenetic clocks (Hannum, Horvath, and DNAmPhenoAge) were used to estimate the epigenetic age acceleration of the two groups. We defined biological age acceleration for each group by comparing the estimated biological age with the chronological age. Results were presented as follows: 1) all three epigenetic clocks were strongly correlated with chronological age. 2) We found a strong association between metformin intake and slower epigenetic aging by Horvath’s clock and Hannum’s clock.

Conclusions: Here, we found an association between metformin intake and slower epigenetic aging.
