    Abstract: Distinct epigenetic modifiers ensure coordinated control over genes that govern a myriad of cellular processes. Growing evidence shows that dynamic regulation of histone methylation is critical for almost all stages of development. Notably, the KDM5 subfamily of histone lysine-specific demethylases plays essential roles in the proper development and differentiation of tissues, and aberrant regulation of KDM5 proteins during development can lead to chronic developmental defects and even cancer. In this review, we adopt a unique perspective regarding the context-dependent roles of KDM5A and KDM5B in development and tumorigenesis. It is well known that these two proteins show a high degree of sequence homology, with overlapping functions. However, we provide deeper insights into their substrate specificity and distinctive function in gene regulation that at times divert from each other. We also highlight both the possibility of targeting KDM5A and KDM5B to improve cancer treatment and the limitations that must be overcome to increase the efficacy of current drugs.

    Abstract: Dysregulation of epigenetic mechanisms as well as genomic mutations contribute to the initiation and progression of cancer. In addition to histone code writers, including histone lysine methyltransferase (KMT), and histone code erasers, including histone lysine demethylase (KDM), histone code reader proteins such as HP1 are associated with abnormal chromatin regulation in human diseases. Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) recognizes histone H3 lysine 9 methylation and broadly affects chromatin biology, such as heterochromatin formation and maintenance, transcriptional regulation, DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, and chromosomal segregation. Molecular functions of HP1 proteins have been extensively studied, although their exact roles in diseases require further study. Here, we comprehensively review the studies that have revealed the altered expression of HP1 and its functions in tumorigenesis. In particular, the distinctive effects of each HP1 subtype, namely HP1α, HP1β, and HP1γ, have been thoroughly explored in various cancer types. We also highlight how HP1 can serve as a potential biomarker for cancer prognosis and therapeutic target for cancer patients.

    Abstract: Histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) is a class I HDAC that catalyzes the deacetylation of histone and non-histone proteins. As one of the best-characterized isoforms, numerous studies have identified interacting partners of HDAC8 pertaining to diverse molecular mechanisms. Consequently, deregulation and overexpression of HDAC8 give rise to diseases. HDAC8 is especially involved in various aspects of cancer progression, such as cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, immune evasion, and drug resistance. HDAC8 is also associated with the development of non-cancer diseases such as Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, pulmonary diseases, and myopathy. Therefore, HDAC8 is an attractive therapeutic target and various HDAC8 selective inhibitors (HDAC8is) have been developed. Here, we address the pathological function of HDAC8 in cancer and other diseases, as well as illustrate several HDAC8is that have shown anti-cancer effects.

    Abstract: HDAC6 is overexpressed in ovarian cancer and is known to be correlated with tumorigenesis. Accordingly, ACY-241, a selective HDAC6 inhibitor, is currently under clinical trial and has been tested in combination with various drugs. HDAC8, another member of the HDAC family, has recently gained attention as a novel target for cancer therapy. Here, we evaluated the synergistic anticancer effects of PCI-34051 and ACY-241 in ovarian cancer. Among various ovarian cancer cells, PCI-34051 effectively suppresses cell proliferation in wild-type p53 ovarian cancer cells compared with mutant p53 ovarian cancer cells. In ovarian cancer cells harboring wild-type p53, PCI-34051 in combination with ACY-241 synergistically represses cell proliferation, enhances apoptosis, and suppresses cell migration. The expression of pro-apoptotic proteins is synergistically upregulated, whereas the expressions of anti-apoptotic proteins and metastasis-associated proteins are significantly downregulated in combination treatment. Furthermore, the level of acetyl-p53 at K381 is synergistically upregulated upon combination treatment. Overall, co-inhibition of HDAC6 and HDAC8 through selective inhibitors synergistically suppresses cancer cell proliferation and metastasis in p53 wild-type ovarian cancer cells. These results suggest a novel approach to treating ovarian cancer patients and the therapeutic potential in developing HDAC6/8 dual inhibitors.

    Abstract: Melanoma is the most lethal type of skin cancer, and it causes more than 55,000 deaths annually. Although regional melanoma can be surgically removed, once melanoma metastasizes to other regions of the body, the survival rate drops dramatically. The current treatment options are chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. However, the low response rate and the development of resistance necessitate the search for a novel therapeutic target in melanoma. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 α (HIF-1α) is overexpressed in melanoma and plays a crucial role in driving malignant transformation in cancer cells. Here, we identified that histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) enhances the protein stability of HIF-1α. HDAC8 directly binds to and deacetylates HIF-1α, thereby promoting its protein stability. This, in turn, upregulates the transcriptional activity of HIF-1α and promotes the expressions of its target genes, such as hexokinase 2 (HK2) and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1). The inhibition of HDAC8 suppresses the proliferation and metastasis of melanoma cells. Furthermore, HDAC8 is correlated with HIF1A expression and poor prognosis in samples from patients with melanoma. These findings uncover a novel epigenetic mechanism that maintains HIF-1α stability and implicates the potential of HDAC8 inhibitors for melanoma therapy.
