Mechanisms of epigenomic and functional convergence between glucocorticoid- and IL4-driven macrophage programming by Dinesh K. Deochand, Marija Dacic, Michael J. Bale, Andrew W. Daman, Vidyanath Chaudhary, Steven Z. Josefowicz, David Oliver, Yurii Chinenov, Inez Rogatsky

“…Glucocorticoids (GC), widely used anti-inflammatory therapeutics, reportedly impart a similar phenotype (M2GC), but how such disparate pathways may functionally converge is unknown. We show using integrative functional genomics that M2IL4 and M2GC transcriptomes share a striking overlap mirrored by a shift in chromatin landscape in both common and signal-specific gene subsets. …”
