Molecular features driving condensate formation and gene expression by the BRD4-NUT fusion oncoprotein are overlapping but distinct

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Aberrant formation of biomolecular condensates has been proposed to play a role in several cancers. The oncogenic fusion protein BRD4-NUT forms condensates and drives changes in gene expression in Nut Carcinoma. Here we sought to understand the molecular

Benefit of Apabetalone on Plasma Proteins in Renal Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction:Apabetalone, a small molecule inhibitor, targets epigenetic readers termed BET proteins that contribute to gene dysregulation in human disorders. Apabetalone has in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory and antiatherosclerotic properties.

Mechanisms of YAP/TAZ transcriptional control

open access: yesCell Stress, 2021
Dysregulated gene expression is intrinsic to cell transformation, tumorigenesis and metastasis. Cancer-specific gene-expression profiles stem from gene regulatory networks fueled by genetic and epigenetic defects, and by abnormal signals of the tumor ...

BRD4 and Cancer: going beyond transcriptional regulation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2018
BRD4, member of the Bromodomain and Extraterminal (BET) protein family, is largely acknowledged in cancer for its role in super-enhancers (SEs) organization and oncogenes expression regulation. Inhibition of BRD4 shortcuts the communication between SEs and target promoters with a subsequent cell-specific repression of oncogenes to which cancer cells ...

Mitochondrial fission promotes self-renewal and tumorigenic potential in prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2019
The emergence of therapy-resistant cancer stem cells (CSCs) limit the efficacy of prostate cancer treatment. Using genetic knockdown and chemical inhibitors, we demonstrate the critical role of Bromodomain Containing 4 (BRD4) in promoting mitochondrial ...

Distinct Mechanisms for Induction and Tolerance Regulate the Immediate Early Genes Encoding Interleukin 1β and Tumor Necrosis Factor α [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interleukin-1β and Tumor Necrosis Factor α play related, but distinct, roles in immunity and disease. Our study revealed major mechanistic distinctions in the Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling-dependent induction for the rapidly expressed genes (IL1B ...

DNA Damage Induces Dynamic Associations of BRD4/P-TEFb With Chromatin and Modulates Gene Transcription in a BRD4-Dependent and -Independent Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
The bromodomain-containing protein BRD4 has been thought to transmit epigenetic information across cell divisions by binding to both mitotic chromosomes and interphase chromatin. UV-released BRD4 mediates the recruitment of active P-TEFb to the promoter,
