Lysine-specific Demethylase 2B (KDM2B)-let-7-Enhancer of Zester Homolog 2 (EZH2) Pathway Regulates Cell Cycle Progression and Senescence in Primary Cells
13 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
Sustained expression of the histone demethylase, KDM2B (Ndy1/FBXL10/JHDM1B), bypasses cellular senescence in primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Here, we show that KDM2B is a conserved regulator of lifespan in multiple primary cell types and defines a program in which this chromatin-modifying enzyme counteracts the senescence-associated down-regulation of the EZH2 histone methyltransferase. Senescence in...
