DNA and Epigenetics
Two critical types of cellular information, DNA and epigenetics, play essential roles in life and aging. While DNA remains largely intact throughout life, the loss of epigenetic information is believed to contribute to aging, as it dictates how cells differentiate and function. Factors like DNA damage from environmental stressors further exacerbate this loss, linking the integrity of DNA to the overall aging process.In this clip
