Popis: | Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms are essential for maintaining skin homeostasis and aid in the processes of wound healing. The nucleus co-ordinates gene expression using epigenetic regulatory mechanisms based on distinct chromatin structural states and their remodeling. These include DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation, post-translational histone modifications, ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and higher-order chromatin structure and 3D genome organization. Epigenetic pathways play a key role in co-ordinating the behavior and activity of the multitude of cell types seen during skin repair, and research is now focusing on how wound healing can be modulated by altering the activity of certain reparative genes. Herein, we aim to highlight recent advances in understanding epigenetic regulatory mechanisms, with particular reference to those involved in keratinocyte and fibroblast biology. We also propose future directions for exploration of epigenetic mechanisms, and their potential clinical applications in acute wound care. |
