The Role of H3K27 acetylation in oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced spinal cord injury and potential for neuroprotective therapies

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating condition that often results in paralysis and lifelong medical challenges. Research has shown that epigenetic modifications, particularly histone acetylation, play a role in neuroprotection following hypoxic-ischemic events in SCI. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of histone H3K27 acetylation, along with its underlying mechanisms, on the tolerance to hypoxia and ischemia in SCI.
