Abstract
All the information essential for life is encoded within our genome and epigenome, which orchestrates diverse cellular states spatially and temporally. In particular, the epigenome interacts with internal and external stimuli, encoding and preserving cellular experiences, and it serves as the regulatory base of the transcriptome across diverse cell types. The emergence of single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic data collection has revealed unique omics signatures in diverse tissues, highlighting cellular heterogeneity. Recent research has documented age-related epigenetic changes at the single-cell level, alongside the validation of cellular rejuvenation through partial reprogramming, which involves simultaneous epigenetic modifications. These dynamic shifts, primarily fueled by stem cell plasticity, have catalyzed significant interest and cross-disciplinary research endeavors. This review explores the genomic and epigenomic alterations with aging, elucidating their reciprocal interactions. Additionally, it seeks to discuss the evolving landscape of rejuvenation research, with a particular emphasis on dissecting stem cell behavior through the lens of single-cell analysis. Moreover, it proposes potential research methodologies for future studies.
期刊介绍:
Molecules and Cells is an international on-line open-access journal devoted to the advancement and dissemination of fundamental knowledge in molecular and cellular biology. It was launched in 1990 and ISO abbreviation is "Mol. Cells". Reports on a broad range of topics of general interest to molecular and cell biologists are published. It is published on the last day of each month by the Korean Society for Molecular and Cellular Biology.
