Epigenome and 3D chromatin structure of cardiac endothelial cells

Endothelial cells play crucial roles in physiology and are increasingly recognized as therapeutic targets in cardio-vascular disease. Here, we analyzed the regulatory landscape of cardiac endothelial cells by assessing chromatin accessibility, histone modifications, and 3D chromatin organization and confirmed the more…

Mineralocorticoid receptor activation and antagonism in cardiovascular disease: cellular and molecular mechanisms

MR antagonists have proven to be highly efficient in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, and they are a cornerstone of contemporary therapy. In the past decade, a series of experimental studies using models with cell type–specific MRs uncovered the more…
