Epigenomic signature of the progeroid Cockayne syndrome exposes distinct and common features with physiological ageing
2021-05-24
Abstract excerpt
Cockayne syndrome (CS) and UV-sensitivity syndrome (UVSS) are rare genetic disorders caused by mutation of the DNA repair and chromatin remodelling proteins CSA or CSB, but only CS patients display a progeroid and neurodegenerative phenotype. As epigenetic modifications constitute a well-established hallmark of ageing, we characterized genome-wide DNA methylation (DNAm) of fibroblasts from CS versus UVSS patients...
