Histone lysine dimethyl-demethylase KDM3A controls pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis

Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) can mediate transcriptional reprogramming in disease states. Here the authors show that KDM3A promotes left ventricular hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis by activating the transcription of Timp1, and that pharmacological inhibition of KDM3A attenuates cardiac remode...
