Involvement of Histone Lysine Methylation in p21 Gene Expression in Rat Kidney In Vivo and Rat Mesangial Cells In Vitro under Diabetic Conditions

Figure 3

H3K4me1/2/3 levels at p21 gene promoter in the glomeruli of type 1 diabetic rats. H3K4me1, H3K4me2, and H3K4me3 levels at p21 and CypA promoters in glomeruli of control and STZ groups. ChIP assays were performed as described in Figure 2 with respective specific antibodies, and results normalized to input DNA were expressed as fold over the control group (mean ± SEM; compared to control).
