Reply to comment by dannzter in Aging is associated with a systemic length-associated transcriptome imbalance -- short genes are associated with aging. The results are found in different organisms and cell types, and the length association responds to anti-aging interventions. by David_Ojcius

Yeah so basically when DNA makes a copy it's transcribed into rna which is called a transcript. This paper shows evidence that something is impacting transcript length on a global scale over time which may be a trigger to aging.

So making the transcript lose information?
