Study finds key gene loss may trigger premature aging in the brain

by Nara Institute of Science and Technology edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Andrew Zinin  A decline in the expression of the epigenetic regulator Setd8 in neural stem cells (NSCs) during early adulthood leads to chromatin condensation and reduced gene expression, suppressing NSC proliferation and contributing to premature brain aging. This illustration depicts the transition of NSCs from […]
