Inactivation of BRM/SMARCA2 sensitizes clear cell renal cell carcinoma to histone deacetylase complex inhibitors
11 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
BRM, a key subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, is an important tumor suppressor gene in multiple tumors. BRM is not mutated, but rather epigenetically silenced in a variety of tumor types, which is different from many anti-cancer genes. In addition, histone deacetylase complex (HDAC) inhibitors are known to reverse BRM silencing, but they also inactivate it via acetylation of its c-terminus. HDAC...
