1 Procainamide is a competitive DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) inhibitor, hydralazine inhibits ERK pathway signaling thereby decreasing Dnmt expression, and in lupus T cells decreased ERK pathway signaling causing a similar Dnmt decrease. Hydralazine DNA methyltransferase 1 Homo sapiens
2 Procainamide is a competitive DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) inhibitor, hydralazine inhibits ERK pathway signaling thereby decreasing Dnmt expression, and in lupus T cells decreased ERK pathway signaling causing a similar Dnmt decrease. Hydralazine DNA methyltransferase 1 Homo sapiens
3 In this report we identify a genetic element that suppresses CD70 expression when methylated, and which demethylates in lupus and in T cells treated with Dnmt and ERK pathway inhibitors including procainamide and hydralazine. Hydralazine DNA methyltransferase 1 Homo sapiens
