Targeting epigenetic regulators to overcome drug resistance in cancers

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Drug resistance is mainly responsible for cancer recurrence and poor prognosis. Epigenetic regulation is a heritable change in gene expressions independent of nucleotide sequence changes.

Histone Lysine Demethylase Inhibitors [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2016
The dynamic regulation of covalent modifications to histones is essential for maintaining genomic integrity and cell identity and is often compromised in cancer. Aberrant expression of histone lysine demethylases has been documented in many types of blood and solid tumors, and thus demethylases represent promising therapeutic targets.

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.

Histone Demethylase LSD1 Regulates Adipogenesis [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Epigenetic mechanisms, in particular the enzymatic modification of histones, are a crucial element of cell differentiation, a regulated process that allows a precursor cell basically to turn into a different cell type while maintaining the same genetic equipment.

Current Perspectives on Histone Demethylases [PDF]

Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2007
The posttranslational modification of histones plays an important role in chromatin regulation. Histone methylation influences constitutive heterochromatin, genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation and gene transcription. Histone demethylase catalyzes the removal of methyl groups on lysine or arginine residues of histones.

Involvement of JMJ15 in the dynamic change of genome-wide H3K4me3 in response to salt stress

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Post-translational histone modifications play important roles in regulating chromatin structure and transcriptional regulation. Histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) is a prominent histone modification mainly associated with gene activation.
