Abstract
HDAC11, as a rising star in the histone deacetylase (HDAC) family, has attracted widespread interest in the biomedical field in recent years specially owing to its high defatty-acylase activity compared its innate deacetylase activity. Numerous studies have provided evidence indicating the crucial involvement of HDAC11 in cancers, immune responses, and metabolic processes. Several potent and selective HDAC11 inhibitors have been discovered and identified, which is crucial for exploring the function of HDAC11 and its potential therapeutic applications. Herein, we present a critical overview of the current advances in the biological function of HDAC11 and its inhibitors. We initially discuss the physiological functions of HDAC11 and its pathological roles in relevant diseases. Subsequently, our main focus centers on the design strategy and development process of HDAC11 inhibitors. Additionally, we address significant challenges and outline future directions in this field. This perspective may provide guidance for the further development of HDAC11 inhibitors and their prospects in disease treatment.

PROTAC-Mediated HDAC7 Protein Degradation Unveils Its Deacetylase-Independent Proinflammatory Function in Macrophages. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2309459.

Abstract
Class IIa histone deacetylases (Class IIa HDACs) play critical roles in regulating essential cellular metabolism and inflammatory pathways. However, dissecting the specific roles of each class IIa HDAC isoform is hindered by the pan-inhibitory effect of current inhibitors and a lack of tools to probe their functions beyond epigenetic regulation. In this study, a novel PROTAC-based compound B4 is developed, which selectively targets and degrades HDAC7, resulting in the effective attenuation of a specific set of proinflammatory cytokines in both lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages and a mouse model. By employing B4 as a molecular probe, evidence is found for a previously explored role of HDAC7 that surpasses its deacetylase function, suggesting broader implications in inflammatory processes. Mechanistic investigations reveal the critical involvement of HDAC7 in the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway by directly interacting with the TNF receptor-associated factor 6 and TGFβ-activated kinase 1 (TRAF6-TAK1) complex, thereby initiating the activation of the downstream mitogen-activated protein kinase/nuclear factor-κB (MAPK/NF-κB) signaling cascade and subsequent gene transcription. This study expands the insight into HDAC7's role within intricate inflammatory networks and highlights its therapeutic potential as a novel target for anti-inflammatory treatments.

Abstract
In this Perspective, we have brought together available biological evidence on hydrazides as histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) and as a distinct type of Zn-binding group (ZBG) to be reviewed for the first time in the literature. N-Alkyl hydrazides have transformed the field, providing innovative and practical chemical tools for selective and effective inhibition of specific histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes, in addition to the usual hydroxamic acid and o-aminoanilide ZBG-bearing HDACis. This has enabled efficient targeting of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and protozoal pathologies.

[PMID: 38862980 PMCID: PMC11167878 DOI: 10.1186/s13148-024-01692-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that impairs metabolism, and its prevalence has reached an epidemic proportion globally. Most people affected are with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is caused by a decline in the numbers or functioning of pancreatic endocrine islet cells, specifically the β-cells that release insulin in sufficient quantity to overcome any insulin resistance of the metabolic tissues. Genetic and epigenetic factors have been implicated as the main contributors to the T2DM. Epigenetic modifiers, histone deacetylases (HDACs), are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histones and play an important role in a variety of molecular processes, including pancreatic cell destiny, insulin release, insulin production, insulin signalling, and glucose metabolism. HDACs also govern other regulatory processes related to diabetes, such as oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and fibrosis, revealed by network and functional analysis. This review explains the current understanding of the function of HDACs in diabetic pathophysiology, the inhibitory role of various HDAC inhibitors (HDACi), and their functional importance as biomarkers and possible therapeutic targets for T2DM. While their role in T2DM is still emerging, a better understanding of the role of HDACi may be relevant in improving insulin sensitivity, protecting β-cells and reducing T2DM-associated complications, among others.

Abstract
Heart failure is associated with histone deacetylase (HDAC) regulation of gene expression, the inhibition of which is thought to be beneficial for heart failure therapy. Here, we explored the cardioprotective effects and underlying mechanism of a novel selenium-containing HDAC inhibitor, Se-SAHA, on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced heart failure. We found that pretreatment with Se-SAHA attenuated ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs). Se-SAHA significantly attenuated the generation of ISO-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and restored the expression levels of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in vitro. Furthermore, Se-SAHA pretreatment prevented the accumulation of autophagosomes. Se-SAHA reversed the high expression of HDAC1 and HDAC6 induced by ISO incubation. However, after the addition of the HDAC agonist, the effect of Se-SAHA on blocking autophagy was inhibited. Using ISO-induced mouse models, cardiac ventricular contractile dysfunction, hypertrophy, and fibrosis was reduced treated by Se-SAHA. In addition, Se-SAHA inhibited HDAC1 and HDAC6 overexpression in ISO-treated mice. Se-SAHA treatment significantly increased the activity of SOD2 and improved the ability to eliminate free radicals. Se-SAHA hindered the excessive levels of the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II and Beclin-1 in heart failure mice. Collectively, our results indicate that Se-SAHA exerts cardio-protection against ISO-induced heart failure via antioxidative stress and autophagy inhibition.

Abstract
CD80 is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the B7 family, which has emerged as a crucial molecule in T cell modulation via the CD28 or CTLA4 axes. CD80-involved regulation of immune balance is a finely tuned process and it is important to elucidate the underlying mechanism for regulating CD80 function. In this study we investigated the post-translational modification of CD80 and its biological relevance. By using a metabolic labeling strategy, we found that CD80 was S-palmitoylated on multiple cysteine residues (Cys261/262/266/271) in both the transmembrane and the cytoplasmic regions. We further identified zDHHC20 as a bona fide palmitoyl-transferase determining the S-palmitoylation level of CD80. We demonstrated that S-palmitoylation protected CD80 protein from ubiquitination degradation, regulating the protein stability, and ensured its accurate plasma membrane localization. The palmitoylation-deficient mutant (4CS) CD80 disrupted these functions, ultimately resulting in the loss of its costimulatory function upon T cell activation. Taken together, our results describe a new post-translational modification of CD80 by S-palmitoylation as a novel mechanism for the regulation of CD80 upon T cell activation.

[PMID: 38859964 PMCID: PMC11163118 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2024.1368171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
HDAC11 is an epigenetic repressor of gene transcription, acting through its deacetylase activity to remove functional acetyl groups from the lysine residues of histones at genomic loci. It has been implicated in the regulation of different immune responses, metabolic activities, as well as cell cycle progression. Recent studies have also shed lights on the impact of HDAC11 on myogenic differentiation and muscle development, indicating that HDAC11 is important for histone deacetylation at the promoters to inhibit transcription of cell cycle related genes, thereby permitting myogenic activation at the onset of myoblast differentiation. Interestingly, the upstream networks of HDAC11 target genes are mainly associated with cell cycle regulators and the acetylation of histones at the HDAC11 target promoters appears to be residue specific. As such, selective inhibition, or activation of HDAC11 presents a potential therapeutic approach for targeting distinct epigenetic pathways in clinical applications.

Abstract
Lysine post-translational modifications (PTMs) are widespread and versatile protein PTMs that are involved in diverse biological processes by regulating the fundamental functions of histone and non-histone proteins. Dysregulation of lysine PTMs is implicated in many diseases, and targeting lysine PTM regulatory factors, including writers, erasers, and readers, has become an effective strategy for disease therapy. The continuing development of mass spectrometry (MS) technologies coupled with antibody-based affinity enrichment technologies greatly promotes the discovery and decoding of PTMs. The global characterization of lysine PTMs is crucial for deciphering the regulatory networks, molecular functions, and mechanisms of action of lysine PTMs. In this review, we focus on lysine PTMs, and provide a summary of the regulatory enzymes of diverse lysine PTMs and the proteomics advances in lysine PTMs by MS technologies. We also discuss the types and biological functions of lysine PTM crosstalks on histone and non-histone proteins and current druggable targets of lysine PTM regulatory factors for disease therapy.

Abstract
Targeting cancer-specific metabolic processes is a promising therapeutic strategy. Here, this work uses a compound library that directly inhibits metabolic enzymes to screen the potential metabolic targets in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). SHIN1, the specific inhibitor of serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1/2 (SHMT1/2), has a highly specific inhibitory effect on LUAD cells, and this effect depends mainly on the overexpression of SHMT2. This work clarifies that mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1)-mediated phosphorylation at Ser90 is the key mechanism underlying SHMT2 upregulation in LUAD and that this phosphorylation stabilizes SHMT2 by reducing STIP1 homology and U-box containing protein 1 (STUB1)-mediated ubiquitination and degradation. SHMT2-Ser90 dephosphorylation decreases S-adenosylmethionine levels in LUAD cells, resulting in reduced N6-methyladenosine (m6A) levels in global RNAs without affecting total protein or DNA methylation. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-Seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analyses further demonstrate that SHMT2-Ser90 dephosphorylation accelerates the RNA degradation of oncogenic genes by reducing m6A modification, leading to the inhibition of tumorigenesis. Overall, this study elucidates a new regulatory mechanism of SHMT2 during oncogenesis and provides a theoretical basis for targeting SHMT2 as a therapeutic target in LUAD.

Abstract
The zinc-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs 1-11) belong to the arginase-deacetylase superfamily of proteins, members of which share a common α/β fold and catalytic metal binding site. While several HDACs play a role in epigenetic regulation by catalyzing acetyllysine hydrolysis in histone proteins, the biological activities of HDACs extend far beyond histones. HDACs also deacetylate nonhistone proteins in the nucleus as well as the cytosol to regulate myriad cellular processes. The substrate pool is even more diverse in that certain HDACs can hydrolyze other covalent modifications. For example, HDAC6 is also a lysine decrotonylase, and HDAC11 is a lysine-fatty acid deacylase. Surprisingly, HDAC10 is not a lysine deacetylase but instead is a polyamine deacetylase. Thus, the HDACs are biologically and chemically versatile catalysts as they regulate the function of diverse protein and nonprotein substrates throughout the cell.Owing to their critical regulatory functions, HDACs serve as prominent targets for drug design. At present, four HDAC inhibitors are FDA-approved for cancer chemotherapy. However, these inhibitors are active against multiple HDAC isozymes, and a lack of selectivity is thought to contribute to undesirable side effects. Current medicinal chemistry campaigns focus on the development of isozyme-selective inhibitors, and many such studies largely focus on HDAC6 and HDAC10. HDAC6 is a target for therapeutic intervention due to its cellular role as a tubulin deacetylase and tau deacetylase, and selective inhibitors are being studied in cancer chemotherapy and the treatment of peripheral neuropathy. Crystal structures of enzyme-inhibitor complexes reveal how various features of inhibitor design, such as zinc-coordinating groups, bifurcated capping groups, and aromatic fluorination patterns, contribute to affinity and isozyme selectivity. The polyamine deacetylase HDAC10 is also an emerging target for cancer chemotherapy. Crystal structures of intact substrates trapped in the HDAC10 active site reveal the molecular basis of strikingly narrow substrate specificity for N8-acetylspermidine hydrolysis. Active site features responsible for substrate specificity have been successfully exploited in the design of potent and selective inhibitors.In this Account, I review the structural chemistry and inhibition of HDACs, highlighting recent X-ray crystallographic and functional studies of HDAC6 and HDAC10 in my laboratory. These studies have yielded fascinating snapshots of catalysis as well as novel chemical transformations involving bound inhibitors. The zinc-bound water molecule in the HDAC active site is the catalytic nucleophile in the deacetylation reaction, but this activated water molecule can also react with inhibitor C═O or C═N groups to yield unanticipated reaction products that bind exceptionally tightly. Versatile active site chemistry unleashes the full inhibitory potential of such compounds, and X-ray crystallography allows us to view this chemistry in action.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate gene expression and innate immunity. Previously, we showed that HDAC5 is degraded during Vaccinia virus (VACV) infection and is a restriction factor for VACV and herpes simplex virus type 1. Here, we report that HDAC5 promotes interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) activation downstream of Toll-IL-1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing adaptor molecule-1 or Sendai virus-mediated stimulation without requiring HDAC activity. Loss of HDAC5-mediated IRF3 activation is restored by re-introduction of HDAC5 but not HDAC1 or HDAC4. The antiviral activity of HDAC5 is antagonized by VACV protein C6 and orthologs from the orthopoxviruses cowpox, rabbitpox, camelpox, monkeypox, and variola. Infection by many of these viruses induces proteasomal degradation of HDAC5, and expression of C6 alone can induce HDAC5 degradation. Mechanistically, C6 binds to the dimerization domain of HDAC5 and prevents homodimerization and heterodimerization with HDAC4. Overall, this study describes HDAC5 as a positive regulator of IRF3 activation and provides mechanistic insight into how the poxviral protein C6 binds to HDAC5 to antagonize its function.

Abstract
Protein lipidation plays critical roles in regulating protein function and localization. However, the chemical diversity and specificity of fatty acyl group utilization have not been investigated using untargeted approaches, and it is unclear to what extent structures and biosynthetic origins of S-acyl moieties differ from N- and O-fatty acylation. Here, we show that fatty acylation patterns in Caenorhabditis elegans differ markedly between different amino acid residues. Hydroxylamine capture revealed predominant cysteine S-acylation with 15-methylhexadecanoic acid (isoC17:0), a monomethyl branched-chain fatty acid (mmBCFA) derived from endogenous leucine catabolism. In contrast, enzymatic protein hydrolysis showed that N-terminal glycine was acylated almost exclusively with straight-chain myristic acid, whereas lysine was acylated preferentially with two different mmBCFAs and serine was acylated promiscuously with a broad range of fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid. Global profiling of fatty acylated proteins using a set of click chemistry-capable alkyne probes for branched- and straight-chain fatty acids uncovered 1,013 S-acylated proteins and 510 hydroxylamine-resistant N- or O-acylated proteins. Subsets of S-acylated proteins were labeled almost exclusively by either a branched-chain or a straight-chain probe, demonstrating acylation specificity at the protein level. Acylation specificity was confirmed for selected examples, including the S-acyltransferase DHHC-10. Last, homology searches for the identified acylated proteins revealed a high degree of conservation of acylation site patterns across metazoa. Our results show that protein fatty acylation patterns integrate distinct branches of lipid metabolism in a residue- and protein-specific manner, providing a basis for mechanistic studies at both the amino acid and protein levels.

Abstract
A monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) lines the lumen of blood vessels and, as such, provides a semi-selective barrier between the blood and the interstitial space. Compromise of the lung EC barrier due to inflammatory or toxic events may result in pulmonary edema, which is a cardinal feature of acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The EC functions are controlled, at least in part, via epigenetic mechanisms mediated by histone deacetylases (HDACs). Zinc-dependent HDACs represent the largest group of HDACs and are activated by Zn2+. Members of this HDAC group are involved in epigenetic regulation primarily by modifying the structure of chromatin upon removal of acetyl groups from histones. In addition, they can deacetylate many non-histone histone proteins, including those located in extranuclear compartments. Recently, the therapeutic potential of inhibiting zinc-dependent HDACs for EC barrier preservation has gained momentum. However, the role of specific HDAC subtypes in EC barrier regulation remains largely unknown. This review aims to provide an update on the role of zinc-dependent HDACs in endothelial dysfunction and its related diseases. We will broadly focus on biological contributions, signaling pathways and transcriptional roles of HDACs in endothelial pathobiology associated mainly with lung diseases, and we will discuss the potential of their inhibitors for lung injury prevention.

Abstract
HDAC11 is a class IV histone deacylase with no crystal structure reported so far. The catalytic domain of HDAC11 shares low sequence identity with other HDAC isoforms, which makes conventional homology modeling less reliable. AlphaFold is a machine learning approach that can predict the 3D structure of proteins with high accuracy even in absence of similar structures. However, the fact that AlphaFold models are predicted in the absence of small molecules and ions/cofactors complicates their utilization for drug design. Previously, we optimized an HDAC11 AlphaFold model by adding the catalytic zinc ion and minimization in the presence of reported HDAC11 inhibitors. In the current study, we implement a comparative structure-based virtual screening approach utilizing the previously optimized HDAC11 AlphaFold model to identify novel and selective HDAC11 inhibitors. The stepwise virtual screening approach was successful in identifying a hit that was subsequently tested using an in vitro enzymatic assay. The hit compound showed an IC50 value of 3.5 µM for HDAC11 and could selectively inhibit HDAC11 over other HDAC subtypes at 10 µM concentration. In addition, we carried out molecular dynamics simulations to further confirm the binding hypothesis obtained by the docking study. These results reinforce the previously presented AlphaFold optimization approach and confirm the applicability of AlphaFold models in the search for novel inhibitors for drug discovery.

Abstract
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) stands as a prevalent neurocutaneous disorder. Approximately a quarter of NF1 patients experience the development of plexiform neurofibromas, potentially progressing into malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). FT895, an HDAC11 inhibitor, exhibits potent anti-tumor effects on MPNST cells and enhances the cytotoxicity of cordycepin against MPNST. The study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism underlying FT895's efficacy against MPNST cells. Initially, our study unveiled that FT895 disrupts mitochondrial biogenesis and function. Post-FT895 treatment, reactive oxygen species (ROS) in MPNST notably increased, while mitochondrial DNA copy numbers decreased significantly. Seahorse analysis indicated a considerable decrease in basal, maximal, and ATP-production-coupled respiration following FT895 treatment. Immunostaining highlighted FT895's role in promoting mitochondrial aggregation without triggering mitophagy, possibly due to reduced levels of XBP1, Parkin, and PINK1 proteins. Moreover, the study using CHIP-qPCR analysis revealed a significant reduction in the copy numbers of promoters of the MPV17L2, POLG, TFAM, PINK1, and Parkin genes. The RNA-seq analysis underscored the prominent role of the HIF-1α signaling pathway post-FT895 treatment, aligning with the observed impairment in mitochondrial respiration. In summary, the study pioneers the revelation that FT895 induces mitochondrial respiratory damage in MPNST cells.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that the epigenetic protein histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) is highly expressed in the brain and critically modulates neuroimmune functions, making it a potential therapeutic target for neurological disorders. Herein, we report the development of PB94, which is a novel HDAC11 inhibitor. PB94 exhibited potency and selectivity against HDAC11 with IC50 = 108 nM and >40-fold selectivity over other HDAC isoforms. Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic evaluation indicated that PB94 possesses promising drug-like properties. Additionally, PB94 was radiolabeled with carbon-11 as [11C]PB94 for positron emission tomography (PET), which revealed significant brain uptake and metabolic properties suitable for drug development in live animals. Furthermore, we demonstrated that neuropathic pain was associated with brain upregulation of HDAC11 and that pharmacological inhibition of HDAC11 by PB94 ameliorated neuropathic pain in a mouse model. Collectively, our findings support further development of PB94 as a selective HDAC11 inhibitor for neurological indications, including pain.

Abstract
Skeletal muscles, the largest organ responsible for energy metabolism in most mammals, play a vital role in maintaining the body's homeostasis. Epigenetic modification, specifically histone acetylation, serves as a crucial regulatory mechanism influencing the physiological processes and metabolic patterns within skeletal muscle metabolism. The intricate process of histone acetylation modification involves coordinated control of histone acetyltransferase and deacetylase levels, dynamically modulating histone acetylation levels, and precisely regulating the expression of genes associated with skeletal muscle metabolism. Consequently, this comprehensive review aims to elucidate the epigenetic regulatory impact of histone acetylation modification on skeletal muscle metabolism, providing invaluable insights into the intricate molecular mechanisms governing epigenetic modifications in skeletal muscle metabolism.

Abstract
One-carbon metabolism is a central metabolic pathway critical for the biosynthesis of several amino acids, methyl group donors, and nucleotides. The pathway mostly relies on the transfer of a carbon unit from the amino acid serine, through the cofactor folate (in its several forms), and to the ultimate carbon acceptors that include nucleotides and methyl groups used for methylation of proteins, RNA, and DNA. Nucleotides are required for DNA replication, DNA repair, gene expression, and protein translation, through ribosomal RNA. Therefore, the one-carbon metabolism pathway is essential for cell growth and function in all cells, but is specifically important for rapidly proliferating cells. The regulation of one-carbon metabolism is a critical aspect of the normal and pathological function of the pathway, such as in cancer, where hijacking these regulatory mechanisms feeds an increased need for nucleotides. One-carbon metabolism is regulated at several levels: via gene expression, posttranslational modification, subcellular compartmentalization, allosteric inhibition, and feedback regulation. In this review, we aim to inform the readers of relevant one-carbon metabolism regulation mechanisms and to bring forward the need to further study this aspect of one-carbon metabolism. The review aims to integrate two major aspects of cancer metabolism-signaling downstream of nutrient sensing and one-carbon metabolism, because while each of these is critical for the proliferation of cancerous cells, their integration is critical for comprehensive understating of cellular metabolism in transformed cells and can lead to clinically relevant insights.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11), an enzyme that cleaves acyl groups from acylated lysine residues, is the sole member of class IV of HDAC family with no reported crystal structure so far. The catalytic domain of HDAC11 shares low sequence identity with other HDAC isoforms which complicates the conventional template-based homology modeling. AlphaFold is a neural network machine learning approach for predicting the 3D structures of proteins with atomic accuracy even in absence of similar structures. However, the structures predicted by AlphaFold are missing small molecules as ligands and cofactors. In our study, we first optimized the HDAC11 AlphaFold model by adding the catalytic zinc ion followed by assessment of the usability of the model by docking of the selective inhibitor FT895. Minimization of the optimized model in presence of transplanted inhibitors, which have been described as HDAC11 inhibitors, was performed. Four complexes were generated and proved to be stable using three replicas of 50 ns MD simulations and were successfully utilized for docking of the selective inhibitors FT895, MIR002 and SIS17. For SIS17, The most reasonable pose was selected based on structural comparison between HDAC6, HDAC8 and the HDAC11 optimized AlphaFold model. The manually optimized HDAC11 model is thus able to explain the binding behavior of known HDAC11 inhibitors and can be used for further structure-based optimization.

Abstract
Stimulation of adipocyte β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) induces expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), promoting nonshivering thermogenesis. Association of β-ARs with a lysine-myristoylated form of A kinase-anchoring protein 12 (AKAP12, also known as gravin-α) is required for downstream signaling that culminates in UCP1 induction. Conversely, demyristoylation of gravin-α by histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) suppresses this pathway. Whether inhibition of HDAC11 in adipocytes is sufficient to drive UCP1 expression independently of β-ARs is not known. Here, we demonstrate that adipocyte-specific deletion of HDAC11 in mice leads to robust induction of UCP1 in adipose tissue (AT), resulting in increased body temperature. These effects are mimicked by treating mice in vivo or human AT ex vivo with an HDAC11-selective inhibitor, FT895. FT895 triggers biphasic, gravin-α myristoylation-dependent induction of UCP1 protein expression, with a noncanonical acute response that is posttranscriptional and independent of protein kinase A (PKA), and a delayed response requiring PKA activity and new Ucp1 mRNA synthesis. Remarkably, HDAC11 inhibition promotes UCP1 expression even in models of adipocyte catecholamine resistance where β-AR signaling is blocked. These findings define cell-autonomous, multimodal roles for HDAC11 as a suppressor of thermogenesis, and highlight the potential of inhibiting HDAC11 to therapeutically alter AT phenotype independently of β-AR stimulation.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) is a unique member of the histone deacetylase family that plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression and protein function. In recent years, research on the role of HDAC11 in tumors has attracted increasing attention. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the subcellular localization, structure, expression, and functions of HDAC11 in tumors, as well as the regulatory mechanisms involved in its network, including ncRNA and substrates. Moreover, we focus on the progress made in targeting HDAC11 to overcome tumor therapy resistance, and the development of HDAC11 inhibitors for cancer treatment. Collectively, this review provides comprehensive insights into the potential clinical implications of HDAC11 for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The enzyme cofactor (R)-lipoic acid plays a critical role in central carbon metabolism due to its catalytic function in the generation of acetyl-CoA, which links glycolysis with the tricarboxylic acid cycle. This cofactor is also essential for the generation of succinyl CoA within the tricarboxylic acid cycle. However, the biological functions of (R)-lipoic acid extend beyond metabolism owing to its facile redox chemistry. Most recently, the reduced form of (R)-lipoic acid, (R)-dihydrolipoic acid, has been shown to inhibit histone deacetylases (HDACs) with selectivity for the inhibition of HDAC6. Here, we report the 2.4 Å-resolution X-ray crystal structure of the complex between (R)-dihydrolipoic acid and HDAC6 catalytic domain 2 from Danio rerio, and we report a dissociation constant (KD) of 350 nM for this complex as determined by isothermal titration calorimetry. The crystal structure illuminates key affinity determinants in the enzyme active site, including thiolate-Zn2+ coordination and S-π interactions in the F583-F643 aromatic crevice. This study provides the first visualization of the connection between HDAC function and the biological response to oxidative stress: the dithiol moiety of (R)-dihydrolipoic acid can serve as a redox-regulated pharmacophore capable of simultaneously targeting the catalytic Zn2+ ion and the aromatic crevice in the active site of HDAC6.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are key epigenetic regulators and classified into four subtypes. Despite the various roles of each HDAC isoform, the lack of selective HDAC inhibitors has limited the elucidation of their roles in biological systems. HDAC11, the sole class-IV HDAC, is highly expressed in the brain, however, the role of HDAC11 in microglia is not fully understood. Based on the modification of MC1568, we developed a novel HDAC inhibitor, 5. Interestingly, 5 suppresses lipopolysaccharide-induced microglial activation by the initiation of autophagy and subsequent inhibition of nitric oxide production. Furthermore, we demonstrated that 5 significantly alleviates depression-like behavior by inhibiting microglial activation in mouse brain. Our discovery reveals that specific pharmacological regulation of HDAC11 induces autophagy and reactive nitrogen species balance in microglia for the first time, which makes HDAC11 a new therapeutic target for depressive disorder.

Abstract
Because the overexpression of histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) has been linked to numerous diseases, including various cancers and neurodegenerative disorders, HDAC inhibitors have emerged as promising therapeutic agents. However, most HDAC inhibitors lack both subclass and isoform selectivity, which leads to potential toxicity. Unlike classical hydroxamate HDAC inhibitors, slow-binding HDAC inhibitors form tight and prolonged bonds with HDAC enzymes. This distinct mechanism of action improves both selectivity and toxicity profiles, which makes slow-binding HDAC inhibitors a promising class of therapeutic agents for various diseases. Therefore, the development of slow-binding HDAC inhibitors that can effectively target a wide range of HDAC isoforms is crucial. This Perspective provides valuable insights into the potential and progress of slow-binding HDAC inhibitors as promising drug candidates for the treatment of various diseases.

Here, we report the 2.4 Å-resolution X-ray crystal structure of the HDAC6-( R )-dihydrolipoic acid complex, and we report a dissociation constant (K D ) of 350 nM for this complex as determined by isothermal titration calorimetry. The crystal structure illuminates key affinity determinants in the enzyme active site, including thiolate-Zn 2+ coordination and S-π interactions in the F583-F643 aromatic crevice. This study provides the first visualization of the connection between HDAC function and the biological response to oxidative stress: the dithiol moiety of ( R )-dihydrolipoic acid can serve as a redox-regulated pharmacophore capable of simultaneously targeting the catalytic Zn 2+ ion and the aromatic crevice in the active site of HDAC6.

Abstract
Protein-lipid conjugation is a widespread modification involved in many biological processes. Various lipids, including fatty acids, isoprenoids, sterols, glycosylphosphatidylinositol, sphingolipids, and phospholipids, are covalently linked with proteins. These modifications direct proteins to intracellular membranes through the hydrophobic nature of lipids. Some of these membrane-binding processes are reversible through delipidation or by reducing the affinity to membranes. Many signaling molecules undergo lipid modification, and their membrane binding is important for proper signal transduction. The conjugation of proteins to lipids also influences the dynamics and function of organellar membranes. Dysregulation of lipidation has been associated with diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we first provide an overview of diverse forms of protein-lipid conjugation and then summarize the catalytic mechanisms, regulation, and roles of these modifications.Key words: lipid, lipidation, membrane, organelle, protein modification.

Lysine long-chain fatty acylation regulates the TEAD transcription factor. Cell Rep 2023; 42:112388.

Abstract
TEAD transcription factors are responsible for the transcriptional output of Hippo signaling. TEAD activity is primarily regulated by phosphorylation of its coactivators, YAP and TAZ. In addition, cysteine palmitoylation has recently been shown to regulate TEAD activity. Here, we report lysine long-chain fatty acylation as a posttranslational modification of TEADs. Lysine fatty acylation occurs spontaneously via intramolecular transfer of acyl groups from the proximal acylated cysteine residue. Lysine fatty acylation, like cysteine palmitoylation, contributes to the transcriptional activity of TEADs by enhancing the interaction with YAP and TAZ, but it is more stable than cysteine acylation, suggesting that the lysine fatty-acylated TEAD acts as a "stable active form." Significantly, lysine fatty acylation of TEAD increased upon Hippo signaling activation despite a decrease in cysteine acylation. Our results provide insight into the role of fatty-acyl modifications in the regulation of TEAD activity.

Abstract
Lysine fatty acylation is a protein posttranslational modification (PTM) that has been linked to various important biological processes. HDAC11, the sole member of class IV of histone deacetylases (HDACs), has been shown to have high lysine defatty-acylase activity. In order to better understand the functions of lysine fatty acylation and its regulation by HDAC11, it is important to identify the physiological substrates of HDAC11. This can be achieved through profiling the interactome of HDAC11 using a stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) proteomics strategy. Here we describe a detailed method on using SILAC to identify the interactome of HDAC11. This method can be similarly used to identify the interactome, and thus potential substrates, of other PTM enzymes.

Abstract
Lysine deacetylases, like histone deacetylases (HDACs) and sirtuins (SIRTs), are involved in many regulatory processes such as control of metabolic pathways, DNA repair, and stress responses. Besides robust deacetylase activity, sirtuin isoforms SIRT2 and SIRT3 also show demyristoylase activity. Interestingly, most of the inhibitors described so far for SIRT2 are not active if myristoylated substrates are used. Activity assays with myristoylated substrates are either complex because of coupling to enzymatic reactions or time-consuming because of discontinuous assay formats. Here we describe sirtuin substrates enabling direct recording of fluorescence changes in a continuous format. Fluorescence of the fatty acylated substrate is different when compared to the deacylated peptide product. Additionally, the dynamic range of the assay could be improved by the addition of bovine serum albumin, which binds the fatty acylated substrate and quenches its fluorescence. The main advantage of the developed activity assay is the native myristoyl residue at the lysine side chain avoiding artifacts resulting from the modified fatty acyl residues used so far for direct fluorescence-based assays. Due to the extraordinary kinetic constants of the new substrates (KM values in the low nM range, specificity constants between 175,000 and 697,000 M-1s-1) it was possible to reliably determine the IC50 and Ki values for different inhibitors in the presence of only 50 pM of SIRT2 using different microtiter plate formats.

Abstract
Stimulation of adipocyte β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) induces expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), promoting non-shivering thermogenesis. Association of β-ARs with a lysine myristoylated form of A-kinase anchoring protein 12 (AKAP12)/gravin-α is required for downstream signaling that culminates in UCP1 induction. Conversely, demyristoylation of gravin-α by histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) suppresses this pathway. Whether inhibition of HDAC11 in adipocytes is sufficient to drive UCP1 expression independently of β-ARs is not known. Here, we demonstrate that adipocyte-specific deletion of HDAC11 in mice leads to robust induction of UCP1 in adipose tissue (AT), resulting in increased body temperature. These effects are mimicked by treating mice in vivo or human AT ex vivo with an HDAC11-selective inhibitor, FT895. FT895 triggers biphasic, gravin-α myristoylation-dependent induction of UCP1 protein expression, with a non-canonical acute response that is post-transcriptional and independent of protein kinase A (PKA), and a delayed response requiring PKA activity and new Ucp1 mRNA synthesis. Remarkably, HDAC11 inhibition promotes UCP1 expression even in models of adipocyte catecholamine resistance where β-AR signaling is blocked. These findings define cell autonomous, multi-modal roles for HDAC11 as a suppressor of thermogenesis, and highlight the potential of inhibiting HDAC11 to therapeutically alter AT phenotype independently of β-AR stimulation.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that regulate many important biological pathways. There is a need for the development of isoform-selective HDAC inhibitors for further biological applications. Here, we report the development of trapoxin A analogues as potent and selective inhibitors of HDAC11, an enzyme that can efficiently remove long-chain fatty acyl groups from proteins. In particular, we show that one of the trapoxin A analogues, TD034, has nanomolar potency in enzymatic assays. We show that in cells, TD034 is active at low micromolar concentrations and inhibits the defatty acylation of SHMT2, a known HDAC11 substrate. The high potency and selectivity of TD034 would permit further development of HDAC11 inhibitors for biological and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Protein N-terminal myristoylation is a lipidic modification typically occurring to the α-amino group of N-terminal glycine residues of proteins. It is catalyzed by the N-myristoyltransferase (NMT) enzyme family. Many studies in the past three decades have highlighted the importance of N-terminal glycine myristoylation as it affects protein localization, protein-protein interaction, and protein stability, thereby regulating multiple biological processes, including immune cell signaling, cancer progression, and infections. This book chapter will present protocols for using alkyne-tagged myristic acid to detect the N-myristoylation of targeted proteins in cell lines and compare global N-myristoylation levels. We then described a protocol of SILAC proteomics that compare the levels of N-myristoylation on a proteomic scale. These assays allow for the identification of potential NMT substrates and the development of novel NMT inhibitors.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) plays a key role in diverse cellular processes. With the aberrant expression of HDAC1 linked to many diseases, including cancers, HDAC inhibitors have been used successfully as therapeutics. HDAC1 has been predominantly associated with histone deacetylation and gene expression. Recently, non-histone substrates have revealed diverse roles of HDAC1 beyond epigenetics. To augment discovery of non-histone substrates, we introduced "substrate trapping" to enrich HDAC1 substrates using an inactive mutant. Herein, we performed a series of proteomics studies to test the robustness of HDAC1 substrate trapping. Based on our recent results documenting that different HDAC1 mutants preferentially bound different substrates, which suggested that multiple mutants could be used for efficient trapping, trapping with three single point mutants simultaneously identified several potential substrates uniquely compared to a single mutant alone. However, a greater number of biologically interesting hits were observed using only a single mutant, which suggests that the C151A HDAC1 mutant is the optimal trap. Importantly, comparing independent trials with a single mutant performed by different experimentalists and HEK293 cell populations, trapping was robust and reproducible. Based on the reproducible trapping data, carnosine N-methyltransferase 1 (CARNMT1) was validated as an HDAC1 substrate. The data document that mutant trapping is an effective method for discovery of unanticipated HDAC substrates. SIGNIFICANCE: Histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins are well established epigenetic transcriptional regulators that deacetylate histone substrates to control gene expression. More recently, deacetylation of non-histone substrates has linked HDAC activity to functions outside of epigenetics. Given the use of HDAC inhibitor drugs as anti-cancer therapeutics, understanding the full functions of HDAC proteins in cell biology is essential to future drug design. To discover unanticipated non-histone substrates and further characterize HDAC functions, inactive mutants have been used to "trap" putative substrates, which were identified with mass spectrometry-based proteomics analysis. Here multiple trapping studies were performed to test the robustness of using inactive mutants and proteomics for HDAC substrate discovery. The data confirm the value of trapping mutants as effective tools to discover HDAC substrates and link HDAC activity to unexpected biological functions.

Abstract
AIMS The specificity of the lysine demalonylation substrates of the pharmaceutically attractive tumor promoter/suppressor SIRT5 is not comprehensively clarified. The present study re-analyses publicly available data and highlights potentially pharmaceutically interesting outcomes by the use of bioinformatics. MATERIALS AND METHODS The interaction networks of SIRT5 malonylome from the wild-type and ob/ob (obese pre-diabetic type) mice were subjected to the pathway enrichment and gene function prediction analysis using GeneMania (3.5.2) application run under Cytoscape (3.9.1) environment. KEY FINDINGS The analysis in the wild-type mice revealed the involvement of SIRT5 malonylome in Eukaryotic translation elongation (ETE; the nodes EF1A1, EEF2, EEF1D, and EEF1G), Amino acid and derivative metabolism (AADM), and Selenoamino acid metabolism (SAM). The tumor promoter/suppressor activity of SIRT5 is mediated through the tumor promoter substrates included in AADM (GLUD1, SHMT1, ACAT1), and the tumor suppressor substrates involved in AADM and SAM (ALDH9A1, BHMT, GNMT). Selen stimulates the expression of SIRT5 and other sirtuins. SIRT5 in turn regulates the selenocysteine synthesis, which creates a regulatory loop. The analysis of SIRT5 malonylome in pre-diabetic ob/ob mice identifies the mTORC1 pathway as a mechanism, which facilitates SIRT5 functions. The comparison of the outcomes of SIRT5 malonylome, succinylome, and glutarylome analysis disclosed several differences. SIGNIFICANCE The analysis showed additional aspects of SIRT5 malonylome functions besides the control of glucose metabolism. It defined several unique substrates and pathways, and it showed differences compared to other enzymatic activities of SIRT5, which could be used for pharmaceutical benefits.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that regulate the deacetylation of numerous histone and non-histone proteins, thereby affecting a wide range of cellular processes. Deregulation of HDAC expression or activity is often associated with several pathologies, suggesting potential for targeting these enzymes for therapeutic purposes. For example, HDAC expression and activity are higher in dystrophic skeletal muscles. General pharmacological blockade of HDACs, by means of pan-HDAC inhibitors (HDACi), ameliorates both muscle histological abnormalities and function in preclinical studies. A phase II clinical trial of the pan-HDACi givinostat revealed partial histological improvement and functional recovery of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) muscles; results of an ongoing phase III clinical trial that is assessing the long-term safety and efficacy of givinostat in DMD patients are pending. Here we review the current knowledge about the HDAC functions in distinct cell types in skeletal muscle, identified by genetic and -omic approaches. We describe the signaling events that are affected by HDACs and contribute to muscular dystrophy pathogenesis by altering muscle regeneration and/or repair processes. Reviewing recent insights into HDAC cellular functions in dystrophic muscles provides new perspectives for the development of more effective therapeutic approaches based on drugs that target these critical enzymes.

Emerging epigenetic therapies of cardiac fibrosis and remodelling in heart failure: from basic mechanisms to early clinical development. Cardiovasc Res 2023; 118:3482-3498. [PMID: 36004821 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvac142] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases and specifically heart failure (HF) impact global health and impose a significant economic burden on society. Despite current advances in standard of care, the risks for death and readmission of HF patients remain unacceptably high and new therapeutic strategies to limit HF progression are highly sought. In disease settings, persistent mechanical or neurohormonal stress to the myocardium triggers maladaptive cardiac remodelling, which alters cardiac function and structure at both the molecular and cellular levels. The progression and magnitude of maladaptive cardiac remodelling ultimately leads to the development of HF. Classical therapies for HF are largely protein-based and mostly are targeted to ameliorate the dysregulation of neuroendocrine pathways and halt adverse remodelling. More recently, investigation of novel molecular targets and the application of cellular therapies, epigenetic modifications, and regulatory RNAs has uncovered promising new avenues to address HF. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on novel cellular and epigenetic therapies and focus on two non-coding RNA-based strategies that reached the phase of early clinical development to counteract cardiac remodelling and HF. The current status of the development of translating those novel therapies to clinical practice, limitations, and future perspectives are additionally discussed.

Abstract
Protein lysine acylation represents one of the most common post-translational modifications. Obviously, highly reactive metabolic intermediates, like thioesters and mixed anhydrides between phosphoric acid and organic acids, modify lysine residues spontaneously. Additionally, enzymes using acyl-CoAs as co-substrates transfer the acyl residue specifically to defined sequences within proteins. The counteracting enzymes are called histone deacetylases (HDACs), releasing the free lysine side chain. Such enzymatic activities are involved in different cellular processes like tumor progression, immune response, regulation of metabolism, and aging. Modulators of such enzymatic activities represent valuable tools in drug discovery. Therefore, direct and continuous assays to monitor enzymatic activity of HDACs are needed. Here we describe different assay formats allowing both monitoring of Zn2+-dependent HDACs via UV-Vis-spectroscopy and NAD+-dependent HDACs (sirtuins) by fluorescence-based assay formats. Additionally, we describe methods enabling efficient screening of HDAC-inhibitors via fluorescence displacement assays.

Abstract
Increasing research is illuminating the intricate roles of metal ions in neural development as well as neurological disorders, which may stem from misregulation or dysfunction of epigenetic modifiers. Lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), aluminum (Al), and arsenic were chosen for critical review because they have become serious public health concerns due to globalization and industrialization. In this review, we will introduce various modes of action of metals and consider the role of two posttranslational modifications: histone acetylation and methylation and how each of them affects gene expression. We then summarize the findings from previous studies on the neurological outcomes and histone alterations in response to the metals on each of the previously described histone modifications mechanisms. Understanding metal-induced histone modifications changes could provide better insight on the mechanism through which neurotoxicity occurs, to propose and validate these modifications as possible biomarkers for early identification of neurological damage, and can help model targeted therapies for the diseases of the brain.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) is the only member of the class IV HDAC, and the latest member identified. It is highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney and some other organs, and located in mitochondria, cytoplasm and nuclei, depending on the tissue and cell types. Although studies in HDAC11 total knockout mice suggest its dispensable features for tissue development and life, it participates in diverse pathophysiological processes, such as DNA replication, tumor growth, immune regulation, oxidant stress injury and neurological function of cocaine. Recent studies have shown that HDAC11 is also critically involved in the pathogenesis of some metabolic diseases, including obesity, diabetes and complications of diabetes. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on the role and mechanism of HDAC11 in the regulation of metabolic disorders, with the focus on its regulation on adipogenesis, lipid metabolism, metabolic inflammation, glucose tolerance, immune responses and energy consumption. We also discuss the property and selectivity of HDAC11 inhibitors and their applications in a variety of in vitro and in vivo models of metabolic disorders. Given that pharmacological and genetic inhibition of HDAC11 exerts a beneficial effect on various metabolic disorders, HDAC11 may be a potential therapeutic target to treat chronic metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Classical histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that can hydrolytically cleave acetyl-Lys in histones and other proteins and serve as established drug targets in some forms of cancer. Class I HDACs 1-3 typically exist in a range of multiprotein complexes inside cells and show distinct biological functions in modulating gene expression. In recent years, it has become possible to purify and analyze the structure and enzymatic properties of several of these HDAC complexes, including CoREST, MiDAC, NuRD, Sin3, SMRT, MIER, and RERE. Here, we summarize what is experimentally established and/or computationally predicted about the structure of these complexes to describe their particular catalytic activities and site-specificities with modified nucleosome substrates.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors. The mechanism of GC radioresistance and new radiosensitizers must be revealed and developed to treat GC. Serine hydroxymethyltransferase 2 (SHMT2) is responsible for encoding the mitochondrial form of the pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme. SHMT2 plays a critical role in several types of cancers, while its possible effect on the radiological resistance in GC is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of SHMT2 in the radiological resistance of GC. Our data confirmed that SHMT2 was highly expressed in radiation-resistant GC cells. SHMT2 reduced the radiosensitivity of GC cells. In addition, SHMT2 is involved in radiation-induced GC cell apoptosis. Further, SHMT2 regulated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, therefore reducing the radiosensitivity of GC cells in vivo. In conclusion, we revealed that depletion of SHMT2 enhanced the sensitivity of GC cells to interventional radiotherapy through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Abstract
Deregulation of protein post-translational modifications is intensively involved in the etiology of diseases, including degenerative diseases, inflammatory injuries, and cancers. Acetylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications of proteins, and the acetylation levels are controlled by two mutually antagonistic enzyme families, histone acetyl transferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). HATs loosen the chromatin structure by neutralizing the positive charge of lysine residues of histones; whereas HDACs deacetylate certain histones, thus inhibiting gene transcription. Compared with HATs, HDACs have been more intensively studied, particularly regarding their clinical significance. HDACs extensively participate in the regulation of proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, immune escape, and therapeutic resistance of cancer cells, thus emerging as critical targets for clinical cancer therapy. Compared to HATs, inhibitors of HDAC have been clinically used for cancer treatment. Here, we enumerate and integratethe mechanisms of HDAC family members in tumorigenesis and cancer progression, and address the new and exciting therapeutic implications of single or combined HDAC inhibitor (HDACi) treatment.

Abstract
Enzymes from pathogens often modulate host protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), facilitating survival and proliferation of pathogens. Shigella virulence factors IpaJ and IcsB induce proteolytic cleavage and lysine fatty acylation on host proteins, which cause Golgi stress and suppress innate immunity, respectively. However, it is unknown whether host enzymes could reverse such modifications introduced by pathogens' virulence factors to suppress pathogenesis. Herein, we report that SIRT2, a potent lysine defatty-acylase, is upregulated by the transcription factor CREB3 under Golgi stress induced by Shigella infection. SIRT2 in turn removes the lysine fatty acylation introduced by Shigella virulence factor IcsB to enhance host innate immunity. SIRT2 knockout mice are more susceptible to Shigella infection than wildtype mice, demonstrating the importance of SIRT2 to counteract Shigella infection.

Abstract
Throughout the process of carcinogenesis, cancer cells develop intricate networks to adapt to a variety of stressful conditions including DNA damage, nutrient deprivation, and hypoxia. These molecular networks encounter genomic instability and mutations coupled with changes in the gene expression programs due to genetic and epigenetic alterations. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important modulators of the epigenetic constitution of cancer cells. It has become increasingly known that HDACs have the capacity to regulate various cellular systems through the deacetylation of histone and bounteous nonhistone proteins that are rooted in complex pathways in cancer cells to evade death pathways and immune surveillance. Elucidation of the signaling pathways involved in the adaptive responses to cellular stress and the role of HDACs may lead to the development of novel therapeutic agents. In this article, we overview the dominant stress types including metabolic, oxidative, genotoxic, and proteotoxic stress imposed on cancer cells in the context of HDACs, which guide stress adaptation responses. Next, we expose a closer view on the therapeutic interventions and clinical trials that involve HDACs inhibitors, in addition to highlighting the impact of using HDAC inhibitors in combination with stress-inducing agents for the management of cancer and to overcome the resistance to current cancer therapy.

Our previous research had shown that RSV P2 plays important roles in RSV infection, so in order to further understand the effect of P2 on rice, we used Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) quantitative proteomics experimental system to analyze the changes of protein in transgenic rice expressing P2 for the first time. The results of proteomics showed that a total of 4,767 proteins were identified, including 198 up-regulated proteins and 120 down-regulated proteins. Functional classification results showed that differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were mainly localized in chloroplasts and mainly involved in the metabolic pathways. Functional enrichment results showed that DEPs are mainly involved in RNA processing and splicing. We also verified the expression of several DEPs at the mRNA level and the interaction of a transcription factor (B7EPB8) with RSV P2. This research is the first time to use proteomics technology to explore the mechanism of RSV infection in rice with the RSV P2 as breakthrough point. Our findings provide valuable information for the study of RSV P2 and RSV infection mechanism.

Abstract
Background Although the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be assessed based on pathological type, disease stage and inflammatory indicators, the prognostic scoring model of NSCLC still needs to improve. HDAC11 is associated with poor prognosis of partial tumors, but its prognostic relationship with NSCLC is poorly understood. In this study, the role of HDAC11 in NSCLC was studied to evaluate relationship with disease prognosis and potential therapeutic target. Methods The clinicopathological and paracancerous tissues of patients with NSCLC primarily diagnosed in Tangdu Hospital from 2009 to 2013 were collected. Follow-up of patients were made every three months and the last follow-up period was December 2018. The expression of HDAC11 was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Then, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to analyze the relationship between HDAC11 expression and the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. Kaplan-Meier plotter database was used to verify the connection between hub genes and tumor stage and prognosis. We accessed the relationship between HDAC11 expression and clinicopathological features, and impact on the prognosis. Results The study assessed 326 patients with NSCLC. Compared with adjacent tissues, HDAC11 expression was upregulated (HR =1.503, 95% CI: 1.172 to 1.927, P=0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analyses showed that HDAC11 expression was closely related to OS of NSCLC patients (P=0.0011). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the independent risk factors of OS were clinical stage, HDAC11 expression, and HDAC11 differentiation (all P≤0.001). HDAC11 was significantly associated with prognosis in LUAD. A total of 1,174 differential genes and WGCNA were obtained to construct a co-expression network in LUAD. The GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses showed the relevance with staphylococcus aureus infection, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, and others. The results of LUAD survival analysis showed that HDAC11-related genes NKX2-5 and FABP7 were significantly associated with LUAD prognosis. Conclusions The high expression of HDAC11 is related to the poor prognosis of LUAD, and it is expected to become a therapeutic target and prognostic evaluation therapy for LUAD in the future. However, the relevant results need to be further studied and verified.
