Epigenetic modifications include DNA methylation, his-tone modifications, and micro RNA. Gene alterations have been found to be associated with cardiovascular diseases, and epigenetic mechanisms are continuously being studied to find new useful strategies for the clinical management of afflicted patients. Numerous cardiovascular disorders are characterized by the abnormal methylation of Cp G islands and so specific drugs that could inhibit DNA methyltransferase directly or by reducing its gene expression(e.g., hydralazine and procainamide) are currently under investigation. The anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory properties of histone deacetylase inhibitors and their cardio-protective effects have been confirmed in preclinical studies. Furthermore, the regulation of the expression of micro RNA targets through pharmacological tools is still under development. Indeed, large controlled trials are required to establish whether current possible candidate antisense micro RNAs could offer better therapeutic benefits in clinical practice. Here, we updated therapeutic properties, side effects, and feasibility of eme-rging epigenetic-based strategies in cardiovascular diseases by highlighting specific problematic issues that still affect the development of large scale novel therapeutic protocols.

在洛杉矶的78个小时里,领导分配给我的任务听上去更像是一次寻宝游戏:在四天的时间里,在洛杉矶观看十场体育赛事,其中包括四场NBA季后赛,两场冰球季后赛,三场职业棒球大联盟比赛,还有一场北美最大型的自行车赛。我看完了其中的九场,其中湖人队与雷霆队的第四场交锋最为惊心动魄,直至今日仍让我记忆犹新。我亲眼在见证了凯文杜兰特为雷霆队投入了一记制胜三分球,托尼-帕克率领马刺队完成24分的惊天大逆转;我还目睹
