H3K27ac in SARS-CoV-2 infection
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The ongoing pandemic caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is currently affecting millions of lives worldwide. Large retrospective studies indicate that an elevated level of inflammatory cytokines and pro-inflammatory factors are associated with both increased disease severity and mortality. Targeting these pathways might therefore be a viable therapeutic strategy. Previously, we have reported that chromatin factors such as Topoisomerase I (Top1) play key roles in controlling the induction of inflammatory gene expression programs. Here, by using multidimensional epigenetic, transcriptional, in vitro and in vivo analyses, we show that Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) inhibition in infected cells and animals suppresses lethal inflammation induced by SARS-CoV-2.
