Molecular pathways: the complexity of the epigenome in cancer and recent clinical advances.
Human cancer is causally linked to genomic and epigenomic deregulations. Epigenetic abnormalities occurring within signaling pathways regulating proliferation, migration, growth, differentiation, transcription, and death signals may be critical in the progression of malignancies. Consequently, identification of epigenetic marks and their bioimplications in tumors represents a crucial step towar...

متن کاملPharmacologic Targeting of Chromatin Modulators As Therapeutics of Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a common hematological cancer of myeloid lineage cells, generally exhibits poor prognosis in the clinic and demands new treatment options. Recently, direct sequencing of samples from human AMLs and pre-leukemic diseases has unveiled their mutational landscapes and significantly advanced the molecular understanding of AML pathogenesis. The newly identified recurrent...

Moreover...
متن کاملING1 and 5-Azacytidine Act Synergistically to Block Breast Cancer Cell Growth
BACKGROUND Inhibitor of Growth (ING) proteins are epigenetic "readers" that recognize trimethylated lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4Me3) and target histone acetyl transferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes to chromatin. METHODS AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we asked whether dysregulating two epigenetic pathways with chemical inhibitors showed synergistic effects on breast cancer cel...
متن کاملSETD2: an epigenetic modifier with tumor suppressor functionality
In the past decade important progress has been made in our understanding of the epigenetic regulatory machinery. It has become clear that genetic aberrations in multiple epigenetic modifier proteins are associated with various types of cancer. Moreover, targeting the epigenome has emerged as a novel tool to treat cancer patients. Recently, the first drugs have been reported that specifically ta...
