Abstract
Provided in some aspects are epigenetic-modifying DNA-targeting systems, such as CRISPR-Cas/guide RNA (gRNA) systems for the transcriptional repression of genes to promote a cellular phenotype that leads to reduction of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). In some embodiments, the epigenetic-modifying DNA-targeting systems bind to or target a target site of at least one gene or regulatory element thereof that regulate LDL. In some embodiments, the systems are multiplexed systems that bind to or target a target site in at least two genes or regulatory elements thereof. Also provided herein are methods and uses related to the provided epigenetic-modifying DNA targeting systems in connection with treatments for cardiovascular disease and familial hypercholesterolemia.
