Epigenetic Regulation of the IL-13-induced Human Eotaxin-3 Gene by CREB-binding Protein-mediated Histone 3 Acetylation
17 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
The etiology of a variety of chronic inflammatory disorders has been attributed to the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Herein, we identified a link between epigenetic regulation and IL-13-driven eotaxin-3 in the pathogenesis of chronic allergic inflammation. We first demonstrated that the cAMP-responsive element (CRE) site in the eotaxin-3 promoter affects IL-13-induced eotaxin-3 promoter...
