Abstract Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) is an osteogenesis-related that has emerged as a prominent repressing in carcinogenesis. However, the role of RUNX2 breast cancer metastasis remains poorly understood. Here, we show recruits metastasis-associated 1 (MTA1)/NuRD and Cullin 4B (CUL4B)-Ring E3 ligase (CRL4B) complex to form transcriptional-repressive complex, which catalyzes histone deacetylation ubiquitylation. Genome-wide analysis RUNX2/NuRD(MTA1)/CRL4B targets identified...

As a commonly mutated form of the epidermal growth factor receptor, EGFRvIII strongly promotes glioblastoma (GBM) tumor invasion and progression, but mechanisms underlying this promotion are not fully understood. Through gene manipulation, we established EGFRvIII-, wild-type EGFR-, vector-expressing GBM cells. We used cDNA microarrays, bioinformatics analysis, target-blocking migration assays, Western blotting, an orthotopic U87MG model to examine phenotypic shifts treatment effects...

The RNA-binding protein Lin28 is known to promote malignancy by inhibiting the biogenesis of let-7, which functions as a tumor suppressor. However, role Lin28/let-7 axis in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and stemness breast cancer has not been clearly expatiated. In our previous study, we demonstrated that let-7 regulates self-renewal tumorigenicity stem cells. present was highly expressed mesenchymal (M) type cells (MDA-MB-231 SK-3rd), but it barely detectable epithelial (E)...

Histone post–translational modifications regulate chromatin structure and function largely through interactions with effector proteins that often contain multiple histone-binding domains. PHF1 [plant homeodomain (PHD) finger protein 1], which contains two kinds of histone reader modules, a Tudor domain PHD fingers, is an essential factor for epigenetic regulation genome maintenance. While significant progress has been made in characterizing the domain, roles fingers are poorly defined. Here,...

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) was the first histone identified as catalysing removal of mono- and di-methylation marks on H3-K4. Despite potential broad action LSD1 in transcription regulation, recent studies indicate that may coordinate with multiple epigenetic regulatory complexes including CoREST/HDAC complex, NuRD SIRT1, PRC2, implying complicated mechanistic actions this seemingly simple enzyme. Here, we report is also an integral component SIN3A/HDAC complex. Transcriptional...

The histone methyl transferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a master transcriptional regulator involved in H3 lysine 27 trimethylation. We aimed to elucidate the precise post-translational regulations EZH2 and their role cancer pathogenesis. Here, we show that SET MYND domain containing (SMYD2) directly methylates at 307 (K307) enhances its stability, which can be relieved by H3K4 demethylase lysine-specific 1 (LSD1). SMYD2 critical for function repressing cohort genes governing...

Pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor with poor prognosis. Recently, stem cells (CSCs) were identified in several solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer. Although accumulating evidence indicates that sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) exerts biological functions various cancers, how it contributes to tumorigenesis and metastasis of cancer, as well its role CSCs, still poorly defined. Here we show SIRT1 interacts the Cullin 4B (CUL4B)-Ring E3 ligase (CRL4B) complex, which responsible for H2AK119...
