BRAF increases DNA methylation divergence in mouse cells (BRAFV600E induction compared with uninduced controls).
“BRAFV600E induction produced stepwise methylation divergence consistent with progressive clonal takeover, in contrast to gradual epigenetic drift in uninduced controls.”

Some age-linked DNA marks in organoids did not rely on DNA copying

A cell experiment using mouse colon organoids linked gains in certain DNA marks to biological aging rather than activation of a cancer-linked mutation.A cell experiment using mouse colon organoids linked gains in certain DNA marks to biological aging rather than activation of a cancer-linked mutation.
