متن کاملEpigenetic control of angiogenesis via DNA methylation.
Why some patients develop limband life-saving collaterals but others do not constitutes one of the great challenges that face patients with peripheral vascular and coronary artery disease. A longstanding goal in vascular disease is the establishment of therapies that enhance angiogenesis in compromised tissue beds. To achieve this goal, however, it is essential to define and understand the unde...
متن کاملDNA methylation and differentiation.
The methylation of specific cytosine residues in DNA has been implicated in regulating gene expression and facilitating functional specialization of cellular phenotypes. Generally, the demethylation of certain CpG sites correlates with transcriptional activation of genes. 5-Azacytidine is an inhibitor of DNA methylation and has been widely used as a potent activator of suppressed genetic inform...
متن کاملDNA methylation patterns and epigenetic memory.
The character of a cell is defined by its constituent proteins, which are the result of specific patterns of gene expression. Crucial determinants of gene expression patterns are DNA-binding transcription factors that choose genes for transcriptional activation or repression by recognizing the sequence of DNA bases in their promoter regions. Interaction of these factors with their cognate seque...
