Epigenetic erosion of H4K20me1 induced by inflammation drives aged stem cell ferroptosis

Description: Article reveals that systemic inflammation drives muscle stem‑cell aging by reducing H4K20 monomethylation, disrupting quiescence, and inducing ferroptosis through Kmt5a downregulation and epigenetic silencing of anti‑ferroptosis genes. Article further shows that long‑term inhibition of inflammation prevents ferroptosis, preserves MuSC populations, and enhances muscle regeneration, identifying an epigenetic switch linking chronic inflammation to stem‑cell decline and age‑related muscle degenera… more
