Reversible and Causal Epigenetic Information Loss in Liver Aging and Disease
2025-02-27
Abstract excerpt
The loss of epigenetic information has been proposed as a driver of aging and diseases, but the reversibility and causality of this process remain underexplored. Here we analyze liver-unique methylation sites - genomic loci that show distinct methylation patterns in the liver compared to other tissues. Upon disease progression, these sites overwhelmingly regress toward the pan-tissue average. In addition, we demon...
