The epigenetic enzyme DOT1L orchestrates vascular smooth muscle cell–monocyte crosstalk and protects against atherosclerosis via the NF-κB pathway
18 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Histone H3 dimethylation at lysine 79 is a key epigenetic mark uniquely induced by methyltransferase disruptor of telomeric silencing 1-like (DOT1L). We aimed to determine whether DOT1L modulates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotype and how it might affect atherosclerosis in vitro and in vivo, unravelling the related mechanism. METHODS AND RESULTS: Gene expression screening of VSMCs stimulated with...
