A Manually Curated Knowledgebase of Aging across a variety of Species

Details


Name ABCG1 promoter
Type methylation
Species Homo sapiens
Tissue heart
Experiment Method PCR
Up/Down Up
Pro/Anti Pro
Funtion Description Our data indicates that promoter DNA hypermethylation of the ABCG1 and GALNT2 genes, but not the HMGCR gene, is associated with an increased risk of CHD.CHD, smoking and aging are likely to be the important factors influencing DNA hypermethylation.
Regulation Gene ABCG1, GALNT2
