Strategies that regulate LSD1 for novel therapeutics
Histone methylation plays crucial roles in regulating chromatin structure and gene transcription in epigenetic modifications. Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), the first identified histone demethylase, is universally overexpressed in various diseases.

Two teams have independently provided preclinical proof of concept for using lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 inhibitors to treat acute myelogenous leukemia. One of the teams is now running a clinical trial of a generic monoamine oxidase inhibitor that counts the demethylase among its many targets, whereas at least four biotechs are advancing ...

Visualizing the Histone Code on LSD1 [PDF]
In this issue, Garcia-Bassets et al. (2007) show that spurious transcriptional activation by unliganded nuclear receptors is inhibited by histone lysine methylation. This inhibitory histone modification code is efficiently countered by the ligand-dependent recruitment of histone lysine demethylases, including lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), which

Demethylase-independent roles of LSD1 in regulating enhancers and cell fate transition
The major enhancer regulator lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (LSD1) is required for mammalian embryogenesis and is implicated in human congenital diseases and multiple types of cancer; however, the underlying mechanisms remain enigmatic.

LSD1 and the chemistry of histone demethylation [PDF]
The recent discovery that histone demethylation can be catalyzed by the flavin-dependent amine oxidase LSD1 has ushered in a new chapter in the chromatin-remodeling community. Herein, we discuss the rapid progress of the histone demethylase field including the recent identification of the non-heme iron-dependent histone demethylases (JmjC family), the ...

Over-expression of LSD1 promotes proliferation, migration and invasion in non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has been identified and biochemically characterized in epigenetics, but the pathological roles of its dysfunction in lung cancer remain to be elucidated.

LSD1: Biologic Roles and Therapeutic Targeting [PDF]
LSD1 (KDM1A; BHC110; AOF2) was the first protein reported to exhibit histone demethylase activity and has since been shown to have multiple essential roles in mammalian biology. Given its enzymatic activity and its high-level expression in many human malignancies, a significant recent focus has been the development of pharmacologic inhibitors.

LSD1 for the Targeted Regulation of Adipose Tissue
White and thermal (brown and beige) adipose tissue energy storage and oxidative regulation pathways play a central role in maintaining the energy balance throughout the body, and the dysregulation of these pathways is closely related to glucose and lipid metabolism disorders and adipose tissue dysfunction, including obesity, chronic inflammation ...
