Wilson disease: intersecting DNA methylation and histone acetylation regulation of gene expression in a mouse model of hepatic copper accumulation
2021-04-15
Abstract excerpt
The pathogenesis of Wilson disease (WD) is multi-factorial, involving hepatic and brain copper accumulation due to pathogenic variants affecting the ATP7B gene and downstream epigenetic and metabolic mechanisms. Prior DNA methylation investigations in human WD liver and blood and in a WD mouse model revealed an epigenetic signature of WD, including alterations in the histone deacetylase HDAC5. To test the hypothe...
