In this review, we outline the role of LSD1 in tumor immunity in terms of both innate and adaptive immunity, summarizing the mechanisms associated with LSD1-mediated tumor immunity and its potential regulatory capacity in tumor immune escape. Finally, we summarize the research status of LSD1 inhibitors in tumor immunotherapy, which be valuable for promoting the development of effective LSD1-targeted agents used as combination immunotherapy drugs.
Mechanistically, LSD1 demethylates LC3B, leading to decreased LC3B stability. The observed inverse correlation between LSD1 expression and LC3B protein levels in clinical samples underscores the need for further investigation to elucidate how reduced LC3B protein levels induced by LSD1 demethylation may contribute to ovarian cancer.
In conclusion, our study provides compelling evidence that apigenin inhibits liver cancer progression and elucidates its mechanism of action in regulating lipid metabolism. Specifically, we find that apigenin suppresses the progression of HCC cells by downregulating genes involved in lipid metabolism. Additionally, our results indicate that KDM1A acts as a downstream target of apigenin in the inhibition of lipid metabolism in HCC. These findings offer experimental support for the potential use of apigenin as a therapeutic agent for liver cancer, highlighting its relevance in future clinical applications.
In conclusion, YY1 upregulation increased KDM1A expression via transcriptional activation. USP1 stabilized KDM1A through deubiquitination to promote TNBC progression.
Herein, in this review, we summarized the mechanisms how LSD1 regulates cell stemness comprehensively. In addition, some related inhibitors targeting LSD1 to reduce the proliferation characteristics of cancer stem cells are also described.
With its significant inhibitory effect on LSD1 activity, ZINC10039815 emerges as a highly promising candidate for the development of novel LSD1 inhibitors.
Interestingly, specific Lsd1-interacting long non-coding RNAs (LINRs) were found to antagonize Bre1-mediated Lsd1 protein degradation. The intricate interplay discovered among the Lsd1 complex, LINRs and Bre1 provides insight into how Lsd1 protein stability is fine-tuned to underlie progenitor differentiation in vivo.
In conclusion, circKDM1A functions as a tumor suppressor in the malignant proliferation of BCa via the miR-889-3p/CPEB3/p53 axis. CircKDM1A may be a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target of BCa.
Several LSD1 inhibitors and two small-molecule degraders (UM171 and BEA-17) have entered the clinical stage...Moreover, some post-transcriptional modifications and cellular metabolites can also regulate LSD1 expression or its demethylase activity. Therefore, in this review, we will systematically summarize how proteins involved in the transcriptional corepressor complex, various post-translational modifications, and metabolites act as regulatory factors for LSD1 activity.
