Inhibition of EZH2 prevents fibrosis and restores normal angiogenesis in scleroderma [Medical Sciences]

Scleroderma (SSc) is a complex disease that involves activation of the immune system, vascular complications, and tissue fibrosis. The histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) mediates trimethylation of lysine 27 of histone 3 (H3K27me3), which acts as a repressive epigenetic mark. Both EZH2 and H3K27me3 were elevated in...
