Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)

Timeline: Checkpoint Blockade

Cell, 2015
Immune checkpoint therapy, targeting inhibitory pathways in T cells to unleash antitumor immune responses, has led to amazing advances in the clinical care of patients with highly aggressive and otherwise-untreatable cancers. Paraphrasing Jim Allison, the recipient of the 2015 Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award, before we were able to ...

Pharmacological chromatin remodeling enhances response to estrogen therapy in ER+ breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Estrogen therapy elicits clinical benefit in ~ 30% of patients with endocrine‐resistant estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive breast cancer. Based on findings that ER transcriptional activation underlies response to estrogen therapy, we tested the effects of epigenetic dysregulation via pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi).

ADP‐ribosylation: An emerging regulator of the epigenome

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ADP‐ribosylation has emerged as a dynamic epigenetic signaling mechanism that modifies histones and chromatin‐associated proteins. Through coordinated PARylation and MARylation, it integrates with other histone modifications to regulate chromatin structure, transcription factor activity, and gene expression, influencing genome function and disease ...

Immune checkpoint blockade in experimental bacterial infections

Immune checkpoint inhibitors designed to reinvigorate immune responses suppressed by cancer cells have revolutionized cancer therapy. Similarities in immune dysregulation between cancer and infectious diseases has prompted investigations into the role of

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

Arginine methylation as a regulatory ratchet in cancer: From substrate selection to malignant‐state stabilization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

Dendritic cell vaccine induces antigen-specific CD8+ T cells that are metabolically distinct from those of peptide vaccine and is well-combined with PD-1 checkpoint blockade

OncoImmunology, 2018
The success of immune checkpoint blockade has unequivocally demonstrated that anti-tumor immunity plays a pivotal role in cancer therapy. Because endogenous tumor-specific T-cell responsiveness is essential for the success of checkpoint blockade ...
