About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0409
Species: human
Position : chr17:44074243-44076243
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Inflammatory cardiomyopathy
Pubmed ID:  29907596
Enhancer experiment: Luciferase reporter assay,Immunoblotting,Immunostaining,RNA analysis,Western Blot
Enhancer experiment description: In vivo, endotoxemia in MEF2-reporter mice induced upregulation of PGE2 and MEF2 activation. Our findings provide an unexpected new link between inflammation and cardiac remodeling by de-repression of MEF2 through HDAC5 inactivation, which has potential implications for new strategies to treat inflammatory cardiomyopathies.

About Target gene

Target gene : HDAC5
Strong evidence: qRT-PCR,qPCR,ChIP,3C
Less strong evidence: RNA-Seq
Target gene experiment description: In vivo, endotoxemia in MEF2-reporter mice induced upregulation of PGE2 and MEF2 activation. Our findings provide an unexpected new link between inflammation and cardiac remodeling by de-repression of MEF2 through HDAC5 inactivation, which has potential implications for new strategies to treat inflammatory cardiomyopathies.
