Popis: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a heterogeneous disease, causing severe breathing problems and cardiac morbidity. Here, the authors study chromatin marks in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells from PAH patients and controls and find changes in transcription factor and enhancer activity that suggest an aberrant response to signalling in PAH.
