About Enhancer
| Enhancer ID: | E_02_0318 |
| Species: | human |
| Position : | chr5:75333700-75335700   |
| Biosample name: | |
| Experiment class : | High+Lowthroughput |
| Enhancer type: | Enhancer |
| Disease: | Hypercholesterolemia |
| Pubmed ID: | 29718709 |
| Enhancer experiment: | small interfering RNA,ELISA, quantitative RT-PCR,Sulforhodamine B assay,Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay,Western blot, |
| Enhancer experiment description: | The effects of GCs on cholesterol metabolism and epigenetic regulation were verified using the L02 cell line. The results showed that PCE induced hypercholesterolemia in adult offspring, which manifested as significantly higher levels of serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) as well as higher ratios of LDL-C/HDL cholesterol. We further found that the cholesterol levels were increased in fetal livers but were decreased in fetal blood, accompanied by increased maternal blood cholesterol levels and reduced placental cholesterol transport. Furthermore, analysis of PCE offspring in the uterus and in a postnatal basal/chronic stress state and the results of in vitro experiments showed that hepatic cholesterol metabolism underwent GC-dependent changes and was associated with cholesterol synthase via abnormalities in 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR) histone acetylation. We concluded that, to compensate for intrauterine placentally derived decreases in fetal blood cholesterol levels, high intrauterine GC levels activated fetal hepatic CCAAT enhancer binding protein ? signaling and down-regulated Sirtuin1 expression, which mediated the high levels of histone acetylation ( via H3K9ac and H3K14ac) and expression of HMGCR. |
