Genome-Wide Methylation Study Identifies an IL-13–induced Epigenetic Signature in Asthmatic Airways
16 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: Epigenetic changes to airway cells have been proposed as important modulators of the effects of environmental exposures on airway diseases, yet no study to date has shown epigenetic responses to exposures in the airway that correlate with disease state. The type 2 cytokine IL-13 is a key mediator of allergic airway diseases, such as asthma, and is up-regulated in response to many asthma-promoting...
