Class I histone deacetylases (HDAC1-3) are histone lysine delactylases

Carlos Moreno Yruela, Alexander Lund Nielsen, Di Zhang

Lysine L-lactylation [K(L-la)] is a newly discovered histone mark stimulated under conditions of high glycolysis, such as the Warburg effect. K(L-la) is associated with functions that are different from the widely studied histone acetylation. While K(L-la) ...

Hmx1 regulates urfh1 expression in the craniofacial region in zebrafish

H6 family homeobox 1 (HMX1) regulates multiple aspects of craniofacial development as it is widely expressed in the eye, peripheral ganglia and branchial arches. Mutations in HMX1 are linked to an ocular defect termed Oculo-auricular syndrome of Schorderet ...

Cognitive epigenetic priming: leveraging histone acetylation for memory amelioration

Johannes Gräff

Multiple studies have found that increasing histone acetylation by means of histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) treatment can ameliorate memory and rescue cognitive impairments, but their mode of action is not fully understood. In particular, it is uncle ...

The nuclear receptor corepressor NCoR1 regulates hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis in vivo

Johan Auwerx, Lulu Liu, Wei Zhang, Yao Zhang, Na Zhang

Enhanced understanding of normal and malignant hematopoiesis pathways should facilitate the development of effective clinical treatment strategies for hematopoietic malignancies. Nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) has been implicated in transcriptional ...

Epigenetic approach for angiostatic therapy: promising combinations for cancer treatment

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Ume-Gulsoom Abdul, Marije Trudi Te Winkel

Cancer cells are often dependent on epigenetic pathways for their survival. Consequently, drugs that target the epigenome, rather than the underlying DNA sequence, are currently attracting considerable attention. In recent years, the first epigenetic drugs ...

Valproic acid potentiates the anticancer activity of capecitabine <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> in breast cancer models via induction of thymidine phosphorylase expression

The prognosis of patients with metastatic breast cancer remains poor, and thus novel therapeutic approaches are needed. Capecitabine, which is commonly used for metastatic breast cancer in different settings, is an inactive prodrug that takes advantage of ...

A KAP1 phosphorylation switch controls MyoD function during skeletal muscle differentiation

Didier Trono, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Marco Cassano, Suk Min Jang

The transcriptional activator MyoD serves as a master controller of myogenesis. Often in partnership with Mef2 (myocyte enhancer factor 2), MyoD binds to the promoters of hundreds of muscle genes in proliferating myoblasts yet activates these targets only ...
