A novel oligoamine analog inhibitor of histone demethylases blocks colon tumor cell growth in association with histone methylation and gene re-expression. It also markedly potentiates the activity of hypomethylating agents in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that histone demethylase inhibitors may represent a valuable addition to the armamentarium of epigenetic agents.

BACKGROUND Small molecule modulators of epigenetic processes are currently sought as basic probes for biochemical mechanisms, and as starting points for development of therapeutic agents. N(ε)-Methylation of lysine residues on histone tails is one of a number of post-translational modifications that together enable transcriptional regulation. Histone lysine demethylases antagonize the action of...
Histone methylation is a key element of the eukaryotic epigenome. Since the discovery of the first histone demethylase (HDM) in 2004, more than 20 demethylases have been identified and characterized. They belong to either the LSD family or the JmjC family, demonstrating the reversibility of all methylation states at almost all major histone lysine methylation sites. These findings ended decades...
Histone methylation levels, which are determined by the action of both histone demethylases and methyltransferases, impact multiple biological processes by affecting gene expression activity. Methionine metabolism generates the major methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) for histone methylation. The functions of methionine metabolic enzymes in regulating biological processes as well as the in...
Posttranslational modifications of histones regulate chromatin structure and gene expression. Histone demethylases, members of a newly emerging transcription-factor family, remove methyl groups from the lysine residues of the histone tails and thereby regulate the transcriptional activity of target genes. JmjC-domain-containing proteins have been predicted to be demethylases. For example, the J...
Epigenetic gene silencing is one of the fundamental mechanisms for ensuring proper gene expression patterns during cellular differentiation and development. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are evolutionally conserved enzymes that remove acetyl modifications from histones and play a central role in epigenetic gene silencing. In cells, HDAC forms a multiprotein complex (HDAC complex) in which the as...
Histone demethylases are epigenetic modulators that play key roles in regulating gene expression related to many critical cellular functions and emerging as promising therapeutic targets a number of tumor types. We previously identified histone demethylase family members overexpressed the pediatric sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma. Here we show high sensitivity rhabdomyosarcoma cells pan-histone inhib...
