Epigenetic derepression of H3K9me3 mitigates Alzheimer-related pathology and improves cognition via immunomodulation and Vgf induction
2024-10-18
Abstract excerpt
We investigated the role of histone 3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3), an epigenetic mechanism involved in the repression of synaptic plasticity and memory-related genes, within aging and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Our study reveals that elevated cortical H3K9me3 strongly correlates with cognitive dysfunction in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD. In old (18 months) and younger (14 months) AP...
