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…

Epigenetic inhibitors attenuate pathological gene expression in cardiomyocytes

Epigenetic modulators have been proposed as promising new drug targets to treat adverse remodeling in heart failure. Here, we evaluated the potential of 4 epigenetic drugs, including the pan-BRD (bromodomain-containing protein) inhibitor bromosporine, the BET (bromodomain and extraterminal) inhibitor JQ1, more…
