Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive cancer with poor response to chemotherapy or radiation, necessitating novel therapeutic approaches. Epigenetic regulation, which is reversible, plays a significant role in cancer progression. CBX3 (HP1γ), a key heterochromatin protein, regulates gene expression by interacting with histone H3 lysine 9 trimethyl (H3K9me3) markers.

TERT upstream promoter methylation regulates TERT expression and acts as a therapeutic target in TERT promoter mutation-negative thyroid cancer.

Cancer Cell Int

Institute of Precision Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, No. 58, Zhongshan Second Road, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510080, China.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the role of DNA methylation in regulating TERT gene expression in thyroid cancer, specifically how methylation affects TERT activity and cellular outcomes in TERT mutation-negative cells.
  • - Treatment with DNA demethylating agents like 5-azacytidine and decitabine resulted in decreased TERT expression, increased cell apoptosis, and inhibited growth of thyroid cancer cells with hypermethylated TERT.
  • - The research identified that the chromatin remodeling protein CHD4 binds to the methylated TERT promoter, promoting its transcription by modifying histone markers, which influences gene expression dynamics.

Background And Objective: Aberrant epigenetic regulation and increased oxidative stress in the placenta play a significant role in placental pathophysiology and fetal programming in preeclampsia, a hypertensive disorder in human pregnancy. The purpose of the study is to investigate if hypermethylation of histone H3K9 occurs in placental trophoblasts from preeclampsia.

Methods: Trophoblasts were isolated and cultured from 14 placentas, 7 from normotensive pregnant women and 7 from preeclamptic pregnancies.
