Gene activity patterns diverged across the aging mouse brain
A spatial mapping method measured five types of marks on DNA-packaging proteins alongside gene activity across the adult mouse lifespan.A spatial mapping method measured five types of marks on DNA-packaging proteins alongside gene activity across the adult mouse lifespan.

What changedWith aging, gene activity fell in fiber tracts but rose for neuronal plasticity genes in the isocortex
The catchThe maps describe molecular differences, not their effects on brain function
