Natural genetic variation between two mouse strains was used as a natural mutagenesis screen to test various aspects of the proposed model for enhancer selection and function. Chromatin marks H3K4me2, H3K27Ac, and transcription factors PU.1, C/EBPa, and p65 were assessed by ChIP-Seq and GRO-Seq and ...

We show that mice lacking Siglec-E, the main member of the CD33rSiglec family, exhibit reduced survival. Removal of Siglec-E causes the development of exaggerated signs of aging at the molecular, structural, and cognitive level. We found that accelerated aging was related both to an unbalanced ROS m...

Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is a master regulator of vascular development and function. Consequently, VEGF-A regulated gene expression programs have been under heavy research. In this study we study the transcriptional regulation of VEGF-A-responsive genes in primary aortic endothe...

Recent studies suggest a hierarchical model in which lineage-determining factors act in a collaborative manner to select and prime cell-specific enhancers, thereby enabling signal-dependent transcription factors to bind and function in a cell type-specific manner. Consistent with this model, TLR4 si...

Macrophages reside in essentially all tissues of the body and play key roles in innate and adaptive immune responses. Distinct populations of tissue macrophages also acquire context-specific functions that are important for normal tissue homeostasis. To investigate mechanisms responsible for tissue-...
