Lsd1 restricts the number of germline stem cells by regulating multiple targets in escort cells. [PDF]
Specialized microenvironments called niches regulate tissue homeostasis by controlling the balance between stem cell self-renewal and the differentiation of stem cell daughters.

The kinase NEK6 positively regulates LSD1 activity and accumulation in local chromatin sub-compartments. [PDF]
LSD1 plays a crucial role in mammalian biology, regulated through interactions with coregulators and post-translational modifications. Here we show that the kinase NEK6 stimulates LSD1 activity in cells and observe a strong colocalization of NEK6 and ...

LSD1+8a is an RNA biomarker of neuroendocrine prostate cancer. [PDF]
Background: Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a histone demethylase and regulator of differentiation, including in cancer. A neuronal-specific isoform of LSD1—LSD1+8a—has been shown to play a key role in promoting neuronal differentiation in the ...

Cooperative role of LSD1 and CHD7 in regulating differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells. [PDF]
Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a histone demethylase that plays a critical role in epigenetic regulation by removing the methyl group from mono- and di-methylated lysine 4 on histone H3 (H3K4me1/2), acting as a repressor of gene ...

LSD1 deficiency in breast cancer cells promotes the formation of pre-metastatic niches. [PDF]
Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), a histone demethylating enzyme, plays a crucial role in cancer metastasis. Studies show LSD1 knockout promotes breast cancer lung metastasis, but it’s unknown if it alters the lung microenvironment for metastasis. In

The scaffolding function of LSD1 controls DNA methylation in mouse ESCs. [PDF]
Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 (LSD1), which demethylates mono- or di- methylated histone H3 on lysine 4 (H3K4me1/2), is essential for early embryogenesis and development.

Sanguinarine, identified as a natural alkaloid LSD1 inhibitor, suppresses lung cancer cell growth and migration [PDF]
Objective(s): Lysine-specific demethylase1 (LSD1), an important class of histone demethylases, plays a crucial role in regulation of mammalian biology. The up-regulated LSD1 expression was frequently associated with progress and oncogenesis of multiple ...
