MacroH2As Regulate Enhancer-Promoter Contacts Affecting Enhancer Activity and Sensitivity to Inflammatory Cytokines
Scientists report thated macroH2A1.2 and macroH2A2 modulated the transcriptional ground state of cancer cells and how they responded to inflammatory cytokines.
[British Journal of Pharmacology] In vivo, investigators studied the role of Caspase-11 in several angiogenesis mouse models using Caspase-11 wild-type and knockout mice. In vitro, scientists detected the effects of Caspase-4 on endothelial functions and Notch signaling by depleting or overexpressing Caspase-4 in HUVECs.
[Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] Scientists identified the reversible SUMOylation of FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) as an intrinsic fine-tuned mechanism in coordinating endothelial angiogenic signaling during neovascularization.
