Epigenetic mechanisms of gene regulation in context of cardiovascular diseases are of
considerable interest. So far, our current knowledge of the DNA methylation profiles for …

Background—Epigenetic alterations may contribute to the development of atherosclerosis.
In particular, DNA methylation, a reversible and highly regulated DNA modification, could …

Background To better understand the molecular mechanisms of atherosclerosis, we
conducted a comparative analysis of DNA methylation patterns in right coronary arteries in …

To evaluate DNA methylation sites and gene expression associated with coronary artery
disease (CAD) and the possible pathological mechanism involved, we performed (1) …

Epigenetic modification, particularly changes in DNA methylation at gene promoters, is
implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. However, the analysis of DNA methylation …

Background The alteration in the epigenome forms an interface between the genotype and
the environment. Epigenetic alteration is expected to make a significant contribution to the …

Cardiovascular diseases are the foremost contributor to global mortality, presenting a
complex etiology and an expanding array of risk factors. Coronary artery disease …

Atherosclerosis, a multifactorial disease of large-and intermediate-sized arteries, is
characterized by the accumulation of lipids and the proliferation of arterial smooth muscle …

Aims We conducted a genome-wide analysis to identify differentially methylated genes in
atherosclerotic lesions. Methods DNA methylation at promoters, exons and introns was …

Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide and
considered one of the most environmentally driven diseases. The role of DNA methylation in …
