Natalia Sacilotto et al. highlighted significant differences in potency and selectivity among the clinical compounds with iadademstat being the most potent and revealed that most of the tool compounds had very low activity and selectivity. [Read the Full Post]

Overexpression of UTX promotes tumor progression in Oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma patients receiving surgical resection: a case control study

295 views | Sep 14 2021

Yen-Hao Chen et al. found that UTX played an important role in the process of OTSCC and overexpression of UTX might predict poor prognosis in OTSCC patients who received surgical resection. [Read the Full Post]

H3K36 methylation reprograms gene expression to drive early gametocyte development in Plasmodium falciparum

429 views | Apr 25 2021

Jessica Connacher et al. found that H3K36me2&3-associated repression of genes was therefore involved in key transcriptional shifts that accompanied the transition from early gametocyte differentiation to intermediate development. [Read the Full Post]

Palmitate-TLR4 signaling regulates the histone demethylase, JMJD3, in macrophages and impairs diabetic wound healing

404 views | Aug 31 2020

Frank M Davis et al. concluded that palmitate contributed to the chronic Jmjd3-mediated activation of macrophages in diabetic peripheral tissue and a histone demethylase inhibitor-based therapy might represent a novel treatment for nonhealing diabetic wounds. [Read the Full Post]

Epigenetic Profiling Identifies LIF as a Super-enhancer-Controlled Regulator of Stem Cell-like Properties in Osteosarcoma

577 views | Nov 12 2019

Lu B et al. revealed osteosarcoma SE profiles and uncovers a distinct tumor-stemness epigenetic regulatory mechanism in which an osteosarcoma-specific SE-mediated factor, LIF, promotes osteosarcoma stemness gene activation via NOTCH1 signaling pathway. [Read the Full Post]

Rhein Inhibits AlkB Repair Enzymes and Sensitizes Cells to Methylated DNA Damage

1196 views | Aug 28 2017

Li Q et al. revealed that rhein binds to AlkB repair enzymes in vitro and promotes thermal stability in vivo In addition, we have determined a new structural complex of rhein bound to AlkB, which shows that rhein binds to a different part of the active site in AlkB than it binds to in fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO).
