Epigenetic coordination of acute systemic inflammation: potential therapeutic targets
4 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic reprogramming of thousands of genes directs the course of acute systemic inflammation, which is highly lethal when dysregulated during sepsis. No molecular-based treatments for sepsis are available. A new concept supports that sepsis is an immunometabolic disease and that loss of control of nuclear epigenetic regulator sirtuin 1 (SIRT-1), a NAD(+) sensor directs immune and metabolic pathways during...
