A Transcriptional Switch Governing Fibroblast Plasticity Underlies Reversibility of Chronic Heart Disease
2020-07-22
Abstract excerpt
In diseased organs, stress-activated signaling cascades alter chromatin, triggering broad shifts in transcription and cell state that exacerbate pathology. Fibroblast activation is a common stress response that worsens lung, liver, kidney and heart disease, yet its mechanistic basis remains poorly understood 1,2 . Pharmacologic inhibition of the BET family of transcriptional coactivators alleviates cardiac dysfun...
