Nanoparticles loaded with the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor SGI-1027 decrease murine atherosclerosis and inflammation in cultured human macrophages

Aim: The DNA of the atheroma is hypermethylated relative to adjacent healthy vascular tissue. A significant portion of hypermethylated loci in the atheroma DNA map to genes related to macrophage function. Reversing macrophage DNA methylation to physiological levels by targeting DNA methyltransferase...
