Abstract excerpt
Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) resistance is a major obstacle in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epigenetic alterations have been shown to be involved in NSCLC oncogenesis; however, their function in EGFR-TKI resistance remains uncharacterized. Here, we found that an EHMT2 inhibitor, UNC0638, can significantly inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis in...
