microRNA-152 Mediates DNMT1-Regulated DNA Methylation in the Estrogen Receptor α Gene
BACKGROUND: Estrogen receptor α (ERα) has been shown to protect against atherosclerosis. Methylation of the ERα gene can reduce ERα expression leading to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. Recently, microRNAs have been found to regulate DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and thus control methylat...
