About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0478
Species: human
Position : chr12:56268405-56270405
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Obesity
Pubmed ID:  29763375
Enhancer experiment: Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction,protein immunoblotting,Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),Chromosome conformation capture (3C) assay,Amplicon sequencing,bioinformatics, Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay
Enhancer experiment description: Thus, pre-pregnancy maternal obesity disrupts the placental hGH/CS gene locus chromosomal architecture. However, based on data from obese women who develop GDM, insulin treatment partially recapitulates the chromosomal architecture seen in lean women and positively affects hCS production, presumably facilitating prolactin receptor-related signaling by hCS.

About Target gene

Target gene : CS
Strong evidence: qRT-PCR,qPCR,ChIP,3C
Less strong evidence: RNA-Seq
Target gene experiment description: Thus, pre-pregnancy maternal obesity disrupts the placental hGH/CS gene locus chromosomal architecture. However, based on data from obese women who develop GDM, insulin treatment partially recapitulates the chromosomal architecture seen in lean women and positively affects hCS production, presumably facilitating prolactin receptor-related signaling by hCS.
