Coordination of AUF1 and miR-148a destabilizes DNA methyltransferase 1 mRNA under hypoxia in endometriosis
3 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
STUDY HYPOTHESIS: DNA methylation is regulated by hypoxia in endometriosis. STUDY FINDING: Hypoxia causes global hypomethylation through AU-rich element binding factor 1 (AUF1)/microRNA-148a (miR-148a)-mediated destabilization of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) mRNA. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Eutopic endometrial and ectopic endometriotic stromal cells have the same genetic background, but differ in several cellular...
