Type: article

Abstract: -specific H3K27me2 enrichment was reversed to normal after treatment, while the other 4 remained depressed. In conclusions, H3K14 hypoacetylation and H3K27 hypermethylation play a role in the development of active pulmonary TB disease or its clinical phenotypes, probably through up-regulation of HDAC1 and down-regulation of KDM6B, respectively.
