Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is highly expressed in ER-negative breast cancers and a biomarker predicting aggressive biology

TL;DR: The data indicate that LSD1 may provide a predictive marker for aggressive biology and a novel attractive therapeutic target for treatment of ER-negative breast cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lysine-Specific Demethylase 1 Is Strongly Expressed in Poorly Differentiated Neuroblastoma: Implications for Therapy

TL;DR: First evidence that a histone demethylase, LSD1, is involved in maintaining the undifferentiated, malignant phenotype of neuroblastoma cells is provided, showing that inhibition of LSD1 reprograms the transcriptome of neuro Blastoma cells and inhibits Neuroblastoma xenograft growth in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphorylation of histone H3T6 by PKCβ I controls demethylation at histone H3K4

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that phosphorylation of histone H3 at threonine 6 (H3T6) by protein kinase C beta I (PKCbeta(I), also known as PRKCbeta) is the key event that prevents LSD1 from demethylating H3K4 during AR-dependent gene activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical consequences of PKHD1 mutations in 164 patients with autosomal-recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD).

TL;DR: This is the first study that reports the long-term outcome of ARPKD patients with defined PK HD1 mutations, indicating that PKHD1 mutation screening is a powerful diagnostic tool in patients suspected with AR PKD.
