Hypomethylating agents as emerging therapeutics for triple-negative breast cancer.
Life Sci
January 2025
Department of Immunology, School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Kubang Kerian, Kelantan, Malaysia. Electronic address:
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is recognized as the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer. Epigenetic silencing, such as DNA methylation mediated by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) plays key roles in TNBC tumorigenesis. Hypomethylating agents (HMAs) such as azacitidine, decitabine, and guadecitabine are key inhibitors of DNMTs, and accumulating evidence has shown their immunogenicity properties.

Background: Poly (ADP-Ribose) polymerase inhibitors are approved for treatment of tumors with BRCA1/2 and other homologous recombination repair (HRR) mutations. However, clinical responses are often not durable and treatment may be detrimental in advanced cancer due to excessive toxicities. Thus we are seeking alternative therapeutics to enhance PARP-directed outcomes.

Background: Studies have shown that DNA methylation of the CACNA1C gene is involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases and the mechanism of drug action. However, its relationship with atrial fibrillation (AF) remains largely unexplored.
Objective: To investigate the association between DNA methylation of the CACNA1C gene and AF by combining decitabine (5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine, AZA) treatment with multi-omics analysis.
Chimeric Peptide-Engineered Polyprodrug Enhances Cytotoxic T Cell Response by Inducing Immunogenic Cell Death and Upregulating Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I.

Tumor-specific cytotoxic T cell immunity is critically dependent on effective antigen presentation and sustained signal transduction. However, this immune response is frequently compromised by the inherently low immunogenicity of breast cancer and the deficiency in major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) expression. Herein, a chimeric peptide-engineered stoichiometric polyprodrug (PDPP) is fabricated to potentiate the cytotoxic T cell response, characterized by a high drug loading capacity and precise stoichiometric drug ratio, of which the immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducer of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) and the epigenetic drug of decitabine (DAC) are condensed into a polyprodrug called PpIX-DAC.

Hypomethylating agents (HMAs) such as azacytidine and decitabine are FDA-approved chemotherapy drugs for hematologic malignancy. By inhibiting DNA methyltransferases, HMAs reactivate tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and endogenous double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) that limit tumor growth and trigger apoptosis via viral mimicry. Yet, HMAs show limited effects in many solid tumors despite the strong induction of TSGs and dsRNAs.
