LSD1 inhibitors for cancer treatment: Focus on multi-target agents and compounds in clinical trials

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1/KDM1A) was first identified in 2004 as an epigenetic enzyme able to demethylate specific lysine residues of histone H3, namely H3K4me1/2 and H3K9me1/2, using FAD as the cofactor.

Cytoplasmic translocation of nuclear LSD1 (KDM1A) in human hepatoma cells is induced by its inhibitors

open access: yesHepatic Oncology, 2019
Aim: Histone-modifiable lysine-specific demethylase-1 (LSD1/KDM1A) is an oncoprotein upregulated in cancers, including hepatoma. We previously reported that the hepatoma-preventive geranylgeranoic acid (GGA) inhibits KDM1A at the same IC50 as that of the

Neurochemical effects of the monoamine oxidase inhibitor phenelzine on brain GABA and alanine: A comparison with vigabatrin

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2008
PURPOSE. To compare phenelzine (PLZ), an antidepressant drug with anxiolytic properties which inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO) but also elevates rat brain levels of the amino acids ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and alanine (ALA), with vigabatrin (VIG ...

Anti-cancer effect of LINC00478 in bladder cancer correlates with KDM1A-dependent MMP9 demethylation

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2022
Accumulating evidence has highlighted the important roles of long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) during cancer progression. However, the involvement of LINC00478 in bladder cancer remains largely unclear.

Hepatic CYP3A4 Enzyme Compensatively Maintains Endogenous Geranylgeranoic Acid Levels in MAOB-Knockout Human Hepatoma Cells

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Geranylgeranoic acid (GGA), developed as a preventive agent against second primary hepatoma, has been reported to be biosynthesized via the mevalonate pathway in human hepatoma-derived cells.

Borylcyclopropanes: Synthetic Strategies and Applications

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Borylcyclopropanes (cyclopropanes bearing a boron substituent) sit at the intersection of two privileged frameworks in synthesis. This review provides the first exhaustive survey of their chemistry, spanning metal–carbene, nucleophilic cyclization, radical, hydroboration, and C─H activation routes, and documenting applications in medicinal chemistry ...
