DNA methylation can be targeted and modulated to induce anti-aging and regenerative effects using an emerging therapeutic approach known as partial reprogramming, induced by different combinations of Yamanaka factors. Methods: In this study, we performed an integrative secondary analysis of five publicly available DNA methylation datasets derived from partial reprogramming experiments across multiple mammalian species, tissues, cell types and combinations of transcription factors (n = 189 samples). Results: Following differential methylation analysis of 929,009 CpGs, we identified 14 CpG sites showing reproducible and significant changes, with two CpGs consistently present across all datasets. Conclusions: These findings suggest that partial reprogramming may exert anti-aging and regenerative effects, in part, through the selective modulation of conserved DNA methylation sites.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/epigenomes10030055","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,13]],"date-time":"2026-08-13T08:06:16Z","timestamp":1786608376000},"page":"55","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Conserved Partial Reprogramming Effects on the Methylome"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Elena-Cristina","family":"G\u0103it\u0103naru","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Bucharest, Faculty of Biology, Splaiul Independentei 91-95, R-050095 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Independent Research Association, 012416 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5758-1422","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roua Gabriela","family":"Popescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Independent Research Association, 012416 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Blue Screen SRL, 012416 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andreea-Angelica","family":"Stroe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Bucharest, Faculty of Biology, Splaiul Independentei 91-95, R-050095 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2631-9098","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sergiu Emil","family":"Georgescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Bucharest, Faculty of Biology, Splaiul Independentei 91-95, R-050095 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9429-4502","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"George C\u0103t\u0103lin","family":"Marinescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Independent Research Association, 012416 Bucharest, Romania"},{"name":"Blue Screen SRL, 012416 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1194","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cell.2013.05.039","article-title":"The Hallmarks of Aging","volume":"153","author":"Blasco","year":"2013","journal-title":"Cell"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"243","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cell.2022.11.001","article-title":"Hallmarks of Aging: An Expanding Universe","volume":"186","author":"Blasco","year":"2023","journal-title":"Cell"},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1021\/acschemneuro.3c00531","article-title":"Aging Hallmarks and Progression and Age-Related Diseases: A Landscape View of Research Advancement","volume":"15","author":"Tenchov","year":"2023","journal-title":"ACS Chem.
