Journal, Epigenetic controller: Class Ⅰ histone deacetylase inhibitor regulate of Mycobacteria-Driven guanylate-binding protein 1 gene expression. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 11, 2022 Class Ⅰ histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) MS-275 can selectively inhibit GBP1 expression, ultimately affecting the release of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and suppressing Mtb intracellular survival...Besides, using the bisulfite sequencing PCR, we showed that the CpG site of the GBP1 promoter was hypermethylated, and the methylation status of the GBP1 promoter did not change significantly upon Mtb infection. Overall, this study sheds light on the role of GBP in Mtb infection and provides a link between epigenetics and GBP1 activity.

Journal: Dynamic profiling and functional interpretation of histone Kcr and Kla during neural development. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 24, 2022 Using P19 cells as induced neural differentiation system, we find that HDAC1-3 inhibition by MS-275 pre-activates neuronal transcriptional programs through stimulating multiple histone lysine acylations simultaneously. These findings suggest histone Kcr and Kla play critical roles in the epigenetic regulation of neural development.

- |||||||||| Regulation of chromatin epigenetic modification by the nucleosomal kinase VRK1; implications for new cancer therapies (Poster Area) - Jun 28, 2022 - Abstract #EACR2022EACR_1072;
HDAC (Vorinostat, Entinostat, Panobinostat, Selisistat, Thiomyristoil, AGK2; and AK7) and KMT (Chaetocin and Tazemetostat) inhibitors mimic the effect of VRK1 on histone marks...Conclusion Our findings revealed that permissive chromatin marks decreased (H3K4me3; H3K9ac, H3K27ac, H4K16ac) while repressive marks (H3K9me3; H3K27me3) increased in VRK1-depleted cells. Therefore, the loss of VRK1 expression in the cells had the same effect than the inhibition of these enzymes, suggesting that VRK1 might be a regulator of those epigenetic enzymes and used as new target in synthetic lethality strategies.
