Because Phf2 was detectably lamin-associated only in a heart that was both chronically inflamed and chronically stressed, presumably due to tumor-derived adrenaline “fight or flight” signaling, we speculate that adrenal signaling alone or in combination with inflammation might promote Phf2 association with A-type lamins, and thereby contribute to de-repression of inflammatory genes. The gene discussed is LMNA; the disease is neoplasm.
