General mechanism of JQ1 in inhibiting various types of cancer
Bromodomain‑containing 4 (BRD4) is a histone modification reader and transcriptional regulator that has been reported to interact with acetylated lysine histone motifs transcription factors (TFs), transcription co‑activators and RNA polymerase II. The selective small molecule inhibitor JQ1, which binds competitively to bromodomains, has been reported ...

BRD4 promotes heterotopic ossification through upregulation of LncRNA MANCR
Aims: Acquired heterotopic ossification (HO) is a debilitating disease characterized by abnormal extraskeletal bone formation within soft-tissues after injury. The exact pathogenesis of HO remains unknown.

BRD4 inhibitor JQ1 inhibits and reverses mechanical injury-induced corneal scarring [PDF]
AbstractCorneal scarring is characterized by the improper deposition of extracellular matrix components and myofibroblast differentiation from keratocytes. The bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) inhibitor JQ1 has been shown to attenuate pathological fibrosis.

JQ1 suppresses tumor growth through downregulating LDHA in ovarian cancer*
Amplification and overexpression of c-Myc is commonly seen in human ovarian cancers, and this could be a potentially novel therapeutic target for this disease. JQ1, a selective small-molecule BET bromodomain (BRDs) inhibitor, has been found to suppress tumor progression in several cancer cell types.

Inhibition of bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins increases NKG2D ligand MICA expression and sensitivity to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity in multiple myeloma cells. role of cMYC-IRF4-miR-125b interplay [PDF]
Background: Anticancer immune responses may contribute to the control of tumors after conventional chemotherapy and different observations have indicated that chemotherapeutic agents can induce immune responses resulting in cancer cell death and immune ...

Targeting the differential addiction to anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family for cancer therapy [PDF]
BCL-2 family proteins are central regulators of mitochondrial apoptosis and validated anti-cancer targets. Using small cell lung cancer (SCLC) as a model, we demonstrated the presence of differential addiction of cancer cells to anti-apoptotic BCL-2, BCL-
