Roles of Bromodomain Extra Terminal Proteins in Metabolic Signaling and Diseases
BET proteins, which recognize and bind to acetylated histones, play a key role in transcriptional regulation. The development of chemical BET inhibitors in 2010 greatly facilitated the study of these proteins.

Targeting MYCN-Driven Transcription By BET-Bromodomain Inhibition [PDF]
Abstract Purpose: Targeting BET proteins was previously shown to have specific antitumoral efficacy against MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma. We here assess the therapeutic efficacy of the BET inhibitor, OTX015, in preclinical neuroblastoma models and extend the knowledge on the role of BRD4 in MYCN-driven neuroblastoma.

TRPM3-Induced Gene Transcription Is under Epigenetic Control
Transient receptor potential M3 (TRPM3) cation channels regulate numerous biological functions, including gene transcription. Stimulation of TRPM3 channels with pregnenolone sulfate activates stimulus-responsive transcription factors, which bind to short

Clinical progress and pharmacology of small molecule bromodomain inhibitors [PDF]
Bromodomains have emerged as an exciting target class for drug discovery over the past decade. Research has primarily focused on the bromodomain and extra terminal (BET) family of bromodomains, which has led to the development of multiple small molecule ...

A Novel t(8;14)(q24;q11) Rearranged Human Cell Line as a Model for Mechanistic and Drug Discovery Studies of NOTCH1-Independent Human T-Cell Leukemia [PDF]
MYC-translocated T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a rare subgroup of T-ALL associated with CDKN2A/B deletions, PTEN inactivation, and absence of NOTCH1 or FBXW7 mutations.

Application of Small Epigenetic Modulators in Pediatric Medulloblastoma [PDF]
Medulloblastoma is one of the most frequent among pediatric brain tumors, and it has been classified in various subgroups. Some of them already benefit from quite good therapeutic options, whereas others urgently need novel therapeutic approaches ...

Optimization of a “Bump-and-Hole” Approach to Allele-Selective BET Bromodomain Inhibition [PDF]
Allele-specific chemical genetics enables selective inhibition within families of highly-conserved proteins. The four BET (bromodomain & extra-terminal domain) proteins – BRD2, BRD3, BRD4 and BRDT bind acetylated chromatin via their bromodomains and ...
