DNA methylation of a NF-κB binding site in the aquaporin 5 promoter impacts on mortality in sepsis
6 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Altered aquaporin 5 ( AQP5 ) expression in immune cells impacts on key mechanisms of inflammation and is associated with sepsis survival. Since epigenetic regulation via DNA methylation might contribute to a differential AQP5 expression in sepsis, we tested the hypotheses that DNA methylation of the AQP5 promotor (1) influences AQP5 expression, (2) is associated with the 30-day survival of septic...
