Endogenous neuronal DNA double-strand breaks are not sufficient to drive brain aging and neurodegeneration
2024-10-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Loss of genomic information due to the accumulation of somatic DNA damage has been implicated in aging and neurodegeneration 1–3 . Somatic mutations in human neurons increase with age 4 , but it is unclear whether this is a cause or a consequence of brain aging. Here, we clarify the role of endogenous, neuronal DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in brain aging and neurodegeneration by generating...
