Histone H4K20 Demethylation by Two hHR23 Proteins

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Histone methyl groups can be removed by demethylases. Although LSD1 and JmjC domain-containing proteins have been identified as histone demethylases, enzymes for many histone methylation states or sites are still unknown.

Cerium Nanoparticle‐Mediated Inhibition of the NSUN2/m5C Axis Suppresses Synovial Aggression in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel epitranscriptomic mechanism in rheumatoid arthritis is uncovered: NSUN2 promotes disease via m5C‐dependent stabilization of ICMT mRNA, fueling the migration and invasion of pathogenic RA FLS. Targeting this axis with engineered nanoparticles (Ce/SAA NPs) effectively inhibits disease progression, presenting a precise therapeutic strategy ...

PFKFB4 Deubiquitination by USP10 Enhances Fumarate Metabolism to Orchestrate the KDM1A/Rad51 Axis and Confer Radioresistance in Lung Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
USP10 binds to and stabilizes PFKFB4, enhancing glycolytic ATP production, which activates the urea cycle and elevates fumarate. This inhibits histone demethylase KDM1A, leading to increased H3K4me1 enrichment at the Rad51 promoter and direct activation of Rad51 transcription, which confers lung cancer radioresistance. The PFKFB4 inhibitor 5MPN targets

Heat Stress Promotes Fibroblast‐Derived WNT5A Secretion Through m6A Modification to Activate Melanogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Heat stress promotes WNT5A secretion from fibroblasts via METTL3/YTHDC1‐dependent m6A methylation. Subsequently, WNT5A binds to FZD10 on melanocytes, activating β‐catenin‐driven melanogenesis. ABSTRACT As the impact of global warming continues to intensify, the effects of heat stress on the skin are becoming increasingly evident.

Histone demethylases in autophagy and inflammation

Cell Communication and Signaling
Autophagy dysfunction is associated with changes in autophagy-related genes. Various factors are connected to autophagy, and the mechanism regulating autophagy is highly complicated. Epigenetic changes, such as aberrant expression of histone demethylase, are actively associated not only with oncogenesis but also with inflammatory responses.

Hypomethylation of GNA15 Promotes Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Progression and Macrophage M2 Polarization via STAT3‐CXCL8 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A schematic model summarizing GNA15's mechanism in mediating macrophage M2 polarization and Gemcitabine resistance. ABSTRACT The complexity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression, coupled with the lack of effective immunotherapy, underscores the imperative to deepen our understanding of its mechanisms and identify suitable immune ...

KDM4C Activity Modulates Cell Proliferation and Chromosome Segregation in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer: Basic and Clinical Research, 2016
The Jumonji-containing domain protein, KDM4C, is a histone demethylase associated with the development of several forms of human cancer. However, its specific function in the viability of tumoral lineages is yet to be determined.

Ferroptosis Suppression by the M6A Reader IGF2BP1 Underlies Gemcitabine Resistance in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IGF2BP1 promotes gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer by stabilizing m6A‐modified FTH1 transcripts and protecting them in stress granules, thereby suppressing ferroptosis. Pharmacological inhibition of IGF2BP1 disrupts this protective pathway, restores ferroptotic sensitivity, and enhances gemcitabine efficacy in resistant tumors.

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...
