ABSTRACT:
The invention provided for a method of transcriptionally modulating the expression of a gene encoding a protein of interest associated with treatment of one or more symptoms of a cardiovascular disease. Further provided is a method of determining whether a molecule not previously known to be a modulator of protein biosynthesis is capable of directly and specifically transcriptionally modulating the expression of a gene encoding a protein of interest associated with treatment of one or more symptoms of a cardiovascular disease. Screening methods, including methods of essentially simultaneously screening molecules to determine whether the molecules are capable of directly and specifically transcriptionally modulating one or more genes encoding proteins of interest associated with treatment of one or more symptoms of a cardiovascular disease, are also provided.
