An editable high resolution scientific image depicting Epigenetic changes during aging

Description

During aging DNA methylation increases at CpG islands but reduces in CpG-poor regions and endogenous retroviral (ERV) regions, resulting in less expression of housekeeping genes and the resurrection of ERVs. During aging the nuclear lamina erodes, making attached heterochromatin unstable. Also, a reduction in repressive histone markers and an increase in active histone markers and histone variant H3.3 cause increased chromatin accessibility and the expression of unwanted genes during aging.
