Imprinted genes are regulated by DNA methylation at imprinting control regions (ICRs), differentiallymethylated regions (DMRs) that distinguish between parental alleles. Cell reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offers a valuable model for studying pluripotency. Thus, discerning whether genomic imprinting changes during reprogramming represent epigenetic abnormalities or essential adaptations of pluripotency is crucial. Here, we integrate RNA-seq and MeDIP-seq analysis to profile mouse iPSCs derived from adult neural stem cells (NSCs) . Our findings reveal that most ICRs undergo DNA hypomethylation in iPSCs, although the IG-DMR within the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinted cluster remains methylated, serving as an epigenetic marker of pluripotency. We further identify a non-canonical role forthe dioxygenase TET3 in maintaining IG-DMR methylation through the transcriptional regulation of Oct4 and Trim28 . These findings highlight genomic imprinting as a dynamic regulator of gene dosage during pluripotency acquisition.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nDuring mammalian development, the vast majority of genes are expressed or repressed from both alleles. However, there is a small number of genes, termed ‘‘imprinted genes’’ that are expressed monoallelicaly from either the maternally or the paternally inherited chromosomes.1 Approximately 150 imprinted genes have been described in mammals and are generally organized in clusters, although examples of singleton imprinted genes do exist.2 An imprinting cluster is usually under the control of a DNA element, called the imprinting control region (ICR), that consists of differentially DNA methylated regions (DMRs) between the two parental chromosomes.3 ,4 Deletion or alteration of an ICR results in loss of imprinting (LO","cbCaisETKtDUNUPQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisETKtDUNUPQ","pdf",9261470,24,"English","# Highlights\n## Genomic imprinting and DNA methylation dynamics\n## Reprogramming and pluripotency acquisition\n## TET3 regulation of IG-DMR methylation\n# Summary\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What happens to DNA methylation of most ICRs during adult NSC reprogramming into iPSCs?\",\"answer\":\"Most ICRs undergo DNA hypomethylation in iPSCs derived from adult NSCs.\"},{\"question\":\"Which region within the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinted cluster resists hypomethylation during reprogramming?\",\"answer\":\"The IG-DMR within the Dlk1-Dio3 cluster remains methylated, acting as an epigenetic marker of pluripotency.\"},{\"question\":\"How does TET3 help maintain IG-DMR methylation during reprogramming?\",\"answer\":\"TET3 maintains IG-DMR methylation through transcriptional regulation of Oct4 and Trim28.\"}]","TET3 protects the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinted locus from DNA hypomethylation during adult NSC reprogramming - Article Highlights Summary | PDF",1790662812]
