DNA Methylation Reprograms Metabolic Gene Expression in End-Stage Human Heart Failure
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Heart Failure (HF) is a complex clinical disease and leading cause of hospitalization in the United States. Although precision-based treatment options are ultimately preferred, understanding the common underlying features of HF is also needed to develop universal therapies that address its pathogenesis. Among the etiology-independent molecular changes known to occur in HF is a global shift in the heart’s metabolic substrate preference. Transcriptional reprogramming of the heart has been shown to mediate this metabolic switch towards glycolytic metabolism; however, the molecular machinery that reactivate dormant genes remain largely unknown. In the current study, we hypothesized that the cardiac epigenome regulates metabolism via alterations in DNA methylation.
