DNA hypermethylation: A novel mechanism of CREG gene suppression and atherosclerogenic endothelial dysfunction

Objective: Cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes (CREG), a vasculoprotective molecule, is significantly downregulated in atherosclerotic vessels through unclear mechanisms. While epigenetic regulation is involved in atherosclerosis development, it is not known if the CREG gene is epigenetically...
