[PMID: 38043834 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.148055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a major neurotransmitter that controls growth and maintenance of neurons and its misregulation is linked to neurodegeneration and human diseases. Estradiol (E2) is well-known to regulate the process of differentiation and plasticity of hippocampal neurons. Here we examined the mechanisms of BDNF gene regulation under basal conditions and under stimuli such as E2. Our results demonstrated that BDNF expression is induced by E2 in vitro in HT22 cells (hippocampal neuronal cells) and in vivo (in ovariectomized mouse brain under E2-treatment). Using chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, we demonstrated that estrogen receptors (ERα, ERβ) were enriched at the BDNF promoter in presence of E2. Additionally, ER-coregulators (e.g., CBP/p300, MLL3), histone acetylation, H3K4-trimethylation, and RNA polymerase II levels were also elevated at the BDNF promoter in an E2-dependent manner. Additionally, under the basal conditions (in the absence of E2), the long noncoding RNA HOTAIR and its interacting partners PRC2 and LSD1 complexes binds to the promoter of BDNF and represses its expression. HOTAIR knockdown -relieves the repression resulting in elevation of BDNF expression. Further, levels of HOTAIR-interacting partners, EZH2 and LSD1 were reduced at the BDNF promoter upon HOTAIR-knockdown revealing that HOTAIR plays a regulatory role in BDNF gene expression by modulating promoter histone modifications. Additionally, we showed that E2 induced-BDNF expression is mediated by the displacement of silencing factors, EZH2 and LSD1 at BDNF promoter and subsequent recruitment of active transcription machinery. These results reveal the mechanisms of BDNF gene regulation under the basal condition and in presence of a positive regulator such as E2 in neuronal cells.

CYLD induces high oxidative stress and DNA damage through class I HDACs to promote radiosensitivity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Cell Death Dis 2024; 15:95. [PMID: 38287022 PMCID: PMC10824711 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-024-06419-w] [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: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/31/2024]
Abstract
Abnormal expression of Cylindromatosis (CYLD), a tumor suppressor molecule, plays an important role in tumor development and treatment. In this work, we found that CYLD binds to class I histone deacetylases (HDAC1 and HDAC2) through its N-terminal domain and inhibits HDAC1 activity. RNA sequencing showed that CYLD-HDAC axis regulates cellular antioxidant response via Nrf2 and its target genes. Then we revealed a mechanism that class I HDACs mediate redox abnormalities in CYLD low-expressing tumors. HDACs are central players in the DNA damage signaling. We further confirmed that CYLD regulates radiation-induced DNA damage and repair response through inhibiting class I HDACs. Furthermore, CYLD mediates nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell radiosensitivity through class I HDACs. Thus, we identified the function of the CYLD-HDAC axis in radiotherapy and blocking HDACs by Chidamide can increase the sensitivity of cancer cells and tumors to radiation therapy both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, ChIP and luciferase reporter assays revealed that CYLD could be transcriptionally regulated by zinc finger protein 202 (ZNF202). Our findings offer novel insight into the function of CYLD in tumor and uncover important roles for CYLD-HDAC axis in radiosensitivity, which provide new molecular target and therapeutic strategy for tumor radiotherapy.

Abstract
The normal stress response in humans is governed by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis through heightened mechanisms during stress, raising blood levels of the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol. Glucocorticoids are quintessential compounds that balance the proper functioning of numerous systems in the mammalian body. They are also generated synthetically and are the preeminent therapy for inflammatory diseases. They act by binding to the nuclear receptor transcription factor glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which has two main isoforms (GRα and GRβ). Our classical understanding of glucocorticoid signaling is from the GRα isoform, which binds the hormone, whereas GRβ has no known ligands. With glucocorticoids being involved in many physiological and cellular processes, even small disruptions in their release via the HPA axis, or changes in GR isoform expression, can have dire ramifications on health. Long-term chronic glucocorticoid therapy can lead to a glucocorticoid-resistant state, and we deliberate how this impacts disease treatment. Chronic glucocorticoid treatment can lead to noticeable side effects such as weight gain, adiposity, diabetes, and others that we discuss in detail. There are sexually dimorphic responses to glucocorticoids, and women tend to have a more hyperresponsive HPA axis than men. This review summarizes our understanding of glucocorticoids and critically analyzes the GR isoforms and their beneficial and deleterious mechanisms and the sexual differences that cause a dichotomy in responses. We also discuss the future of glucocorticoid therapy and propose a new concept of dual GR isoform agonist and postulate why activating both isoforms may prevent glucocorticoid resistance.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 1 and 2 (HDAC1/2) inhibitors are potentially useful as tools for probing the biological functions of the isoforms and as therapeutic agents for cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. To discover potent and selective inhibitors, we screened a focused library synthesized by using click chemistry and obtained KPZ560 as an HDAC1/2-selective inhibitor. Kinetic binding analysis revealed that KPZ560 inhibits HDAC2 through a two-step slow-binding mechanism. In cellular assays, KPZ560 induced a dose- and time-dependent increase of histone acetylation and showed potent breast cancer cell growth-inhibitory activity. In addition, gene expression analyses suggested that the two-step slow-binding inhibition by KPZ560 regulated the expression of genes associated with cell proliferation and DNA damage. KPZ560 also induced neurite outgrowth of Neuro-2a cells and an increase in the spine density of granule neuron dendrites of mice. The unique two-step slow-binding character of o-aminoanilides such as KPZ560 makes them interesting candidates as therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Leptin showed different apoptosis regulation effects on the chondrocytes from tibial and vertebral epiphyseal plates. However, the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we tested the protein profile of tibial and vertebral epiphyseal plate chondrocytes with and without leptin stimulation by mass spectrometry and found that the histone acetylation level of tibial chondrocytes was decreased after leptin treatment, while increased in vertebral epiphyseal plates. COIP assay showed that leptin promoted H3, H4 histone acetylation by recruiting CREB binding protein (CBP)/P300 to activate histone acetyl transferases (HATs) activity in vertebral disc chondrocytes. But in tibial plate cartilage cells, leptin did not recruit CBP and p300, thus differently affect the apoptosis of epiphyseal plate chondrocytes. Through explored the mechanism of histone acetylation modulated by leptin, and its effect on cartilage cell apoptosis and cell cycle regulation, This provides a novel target therapy possibility therapeutic approach to for the related disease.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) deacetylate histones H3 and H4. An imbalance between histone acetylation and deacetylation can lead to various diseases. HDAC2 is present in the nucleus. It plays a critical role in modifying chromatin structures and regulates the expression of various genes by functioning as a transcriptional regulator. The roles of HDAC2 in tumorigenesis and anti-cancer drug resistance are discussed in this review. Several reports suggested that HDAC2 is a prognostic marker of various cancers. The roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) that directly regulate the expression of HDAC2 in tumorigenesis are also discussed in this review. This review also presents HDAC2 as a valuable target for developing anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
Human histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a structurally unique, multidomain protein implicated in a variety of physiological processes including cytoskeletal remodelling and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Our current understanding of the HDAC6 structure is limited to isolated domains, and a holistic picture of the full-length protein structure, including possible domain interactions, is missing. Here, we used an integrative structural biology approach to build a solution model of HDAC6 by combining experimental data from several orthogonal biophysical techniques complemented by molecular modelling. We show that HDAC6 is best described as a mosaic of folded and intrinsically disordered domains that in-solution adopts an ensemble of conformations without any stable interactions between structured domains. Furthermore, HDAC6 forms dimers/higher oligomers in a concentration-dependent manner, and its oligomerization is mediated via the positively charged N-terminal microtubule-binding domain. Our findings provide the first insights into the structure of full-length human HDAC6 and can be used as a basis for further research into structure function and physiological studies of this unique deacetylase.

Abstract
Modification of histones provides a dynamic mechanism to regulate chromatin structure and access to DNA. Histone acetylation, in particular, plays a prominent role in controlling the interaction between DNA, histones, and other chromatin-associated proteins. Defects in histone acetylation patterns interfere with normal gene expression and underlie a wide range of human diseases. Here, we utilize Xenopus egg extracts to investigate how changes in histone acetylation influence transcription of a defined gene construct. We show that inhibition of histone deacetylase 1 and 2 (HDAC1/2) specifically counteracts transcription suppression by preventing chromatin compaction and deacetylation of histone residues H4K5 and H4K8. Acetylation of these sites supports binding of the chromatin reader and transcription regulator BRD4. We also identify HDAC1 as the primary driver of transcription suppression and show that this activity is mediated through the Sin3 histone deacetylase complex. These findings highlight functional differences between HDAC1 and HDAC2, which are often considered to be functionally redundant, and provide additional molecular context for their activity.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a disorder observed mostly in older human beings, is characterised by chronic and progressive lung scarring leading to an irreversible decline in lung function. This health condition has a dismal prognosis and the currently available drugs only delay but fail to reverse the progression of lung damage. Consequently, it becomes imperative to discover improved therapeutic compounds and their cellular targets to cure IPF. In this regard, a number of recent studies have targeted the epigenetic regulation by histone deacetylases (HDACs) to develop and categorise antifibrotic drugs for lungs. Therefore, this review focuses on how aberrant expression or activity of Classes I, II and III HDACs alter TGF-β signalling to promote events such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition, differentiation of activated fibroblasts into myofibroblasts, and excess deposition of the extracellular matrix to propel lung fibrosis. Further, this study describes how certain chemical compounds or dietary changes modulate dysregulated HDACs to attenuate five faulty TGF-β-dependent profibrotic processes, both in animal models and cell lines replicating IPF, thereby identifying promising means to treat this lung disorder.

Abstract
Human Histone Deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) belongs to a conserved enzyme superfamily that regulates deacetylation inside cells. HDAC2 is a drug target as it is known to be upregulated in cancers and neurodegenerative disorders. It consists of globular deacetylase and C-terminus intrinsically-disordered domains [1-3]. To date, there is no full-length structure of HDAC2 available due to the high intrinsic flexibility of its C-terminal domain. The intrinsically-disordered domain, however, is known to be important for the enzymatic function of HDAC2 [1, 4]. Here we combine several structural Mass Spectrometry (MS) methodologies such as denaturing, native, ion mobility and chemical crosslinking, alongside biochemical assays and molecular modelling to study the structure and dynamics of the full-length HDAC2 for the first time. We show that MS can easily dissect heterogeneity inherent within the protein sample and at the same time probe the structural arrangement of the different conformers present. Activity assays combined with data from MS and molecular modelling suggest how the structural dynamics of the C-terminal domain, and its interactions with the catalytic domain, regulate the activity of this enzyme.

Abstract
The activity of hematopoietic factor GATA-1 is modulated through p300/CBP-mediated acetylation and FOG-1 mediated indirect interaction with HDAC1/2 containing NuRD complex. Although GATA-1 acetylation is implicated in GATA-1 activation, the role of deacetylation is not studied. Here, we found that the FOG-1/NuRD does not deacetylate GATA-1. However, HDAC1/2 can directly bind and deacetylate GATA-1. Two arginine residues within the GATA-1 linker region mediates direct interaction with HDAC1. The arginine to alanine mutation (2RA) blocks GATA-1 deacetylation and fails to induce erythroid differentiation. Gene expression profiling and ChIP-seq analysis further demonstrate the importance of GATA-1 deacetylation for gene activation and chromatin recruitment. GATA-12RA knock-in (KI) mice suffer mild anemia and thrombocytopenia with accumulation of immature erythrocytes and megakaryocytes in bone marrow and spleen. Single cell RNA-seq analysis of Lin- cKit+ (LK) cells further reveal a profound change in cell subpopulations and signature gene expression patterns in HSC, myeloid progenitors, and erythroid/megakaryocyte clusters in KI mice. Thus, GATA-1 deacetylation and its interaction with HDAC1 modulates GATA-1 chromatin binding and transcriptional activity that control erythroid/megakaryocyte commitment and differentiation.

Abstract
The function of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) in transcriptional regulation and its role in oncogenesis have been well established. Here we discuss a transcription-independent HDAC2 pathway controlling cancer-related protein stability via the mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) ubiquitin ligase. In synovial sarcoma, HDAC2 inactivation demonstrates significant therapeutic effect by degradation of the SS18-SSX driver oncoprotein.

Abstract
Simple Summary Elevated GLI1 expression levels are associated with improved survival in NB patients and GLI1 overexpression exerts tumor-suppressive traits in cultured NB cells. However, NB cells are protected from increased GLI1 levels as they have lost the ability to form primary cilia and transduce Hedgehog signals. This study identifies an isoxazole (ISX) molecule with primary cilia-independent GLI1-activating properties, which blocks NB cell growth. Mechanistically, ISX combines the removal of GLI3 repressor and the inhibition of class I HDACs, providing proof-of-principle evidence that small molecule-mediated activation of GLI1 could be harnessed therapeutically in the future. Abstract Although being rare in absolute numbers, neuroblastoma (NB) represents the most frequent solid tumor in infants and young children. Therapy options and prognosis are comparably good for NB patients except for the high risk stage 4 class. Particularly in adolescent patients with certain genetic alterations, 5-year survival rates can drop below 30%, necessitating the development of novel therapy approaches. The developmentally important Hedgehog (Hh) pathway is involved in neural crest differentiation, the cell type being causal in the etiology of NB. However, and in contrast to its function in some other cancer types, Hedgehog signaling and its transcription factor GLI1 exert tumor-suppressive functions in NB, rendering GLI1 an interesting new candidate for anti-NB therapy. Unfortunately, the therapeutic concept of pharmacological Hh/GLI1 pathway activation is difficult to implement as NB cells have lost primary cilia, essential organelles for Hh perception and activation. In order to bypass this bottleneck, we have identified a GLI1-activating small molecule which stimulates endogenous GLI1 production without the need for upstream Hh pathway elements such as Smoothened or primary cilia. This isoxazole compound potently abrogates NB cell proliferation and might serve as a starting point for the development of a novel class of NB-suppressive molecules.

Regulating the Regulators: The Role of Histone Deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) in Erythropoiesis. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21228460.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play important roles in transcriptional regulation in eukaryotic cells. Class I deacetylase HDAC1/2 often associates with repressor complexes, such as Sin3 (Switch Independent 3), NuRD (Nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase) and CoREST (Corepressor of RE1 silencing transcription factor) complexes. It has been shown that HDAC1 interacts with and modulates all essential transcription factors for erythropoiesis. During erythropoiesis, histone deacetylase activity is dramatically reduced. Consistently, inhibition of HDAC activity promotes erythroid differentiation. The reduction of HDAC activity not only results in the activation of transcription activators such as GATA-1 (GATA-binding factor 1), TAL1 (TAL BHLH Transcription Factor 1) and KLF1 (Krüpple-like factor 1), but also represses transcription repressors such as PU.1 (Putative oncogene Spi-1). The reduction of histone deacetylase activity is mainly through HDAC1 acetylation that attenuates HDAC1 activity and trans-repress HDAC2 activity through dimerization with HDAC1. Therefore, the acetylation of HDAC1 can convert the corepressor complex to an activator complex for gene activation. HDAC1 also can deacetylate non-histone proteins that play a role on erythropoiesis, therefore adds another layer of gene regulation through HDAC1. Clinically, it has been shown HDACi can reactivate fetal globin in adult erythroid cells. This review will cover the up to date research on the role of HDAC1 in modulating key transcription factors for erythropoiesis and its clinical relevance.

Abstract
Oxygen sensing is inherent among most animal lifeforms and is critical for organism survival. Oxygen sensing mechanisms collectively trigger cellular and physiological responses that enable adaption to a reduction in ideal oxygen levels. The major mechanism by which oxygen-responsive changes in the transcriptome occur are mediated through the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway. Upon reduced oxygen conditions, HIF activates hypoxia-responsive gene expression programs. However, under normal oxygen conditions, the activity of HIF is regularly suppressed by cellular oxygen sensors; prolyl-4 and asparaginyl hydroxylases. Recently, these oxygen sensors have also been found to suppress the function of two lysine methyltransferases, G9a and G9a-like protein (GLP). In this manner, the methyltransferase activity of G9a and GLP are hypoxia-inducible and thus present a new avenue of low-oxygen signaling. Furthermore, G9a and GLP elicit lysine methylation on a wide variety of non-histone proteins, many of which are known to be regulated by hypoxia. In this article we aim to review the effects of oxygen on G9a and GLP function, non-histone methylation events inflicted by these methyltransferases, and the clinical relevance of these enzymes in cancer.

Abstract
Newly synthesized histone H4 that is incorporated into chromatin during DNA replication is acetylated on lysines 5 and 12. Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and HDAC2 are responsible for reducing H4 acetylation as chromatin matures. Using CRISPR-Cas9-generated hdac1- or hdac2-null fibroblasts, we determined that HDAC1 and HDAC2 do not fully compensate for each other in removing de novo acetyls on H4 in vivo Proteomics of nascent chromatin and proximity ligation assays with newly replicated DNA revealed the binding of ATAD2, a bromodomain-containing posttranslational modification (PTM) reader that recognizes acetylated H4. ATAD2 is a transcription facilitator overexpressed in several cancers and in the simian virus 40 (SV40)-transformed human fibroblast model cell line used in this study. The recruitment of ATAD2 to nascent chromatin was increased in hdac2 cells over the wild type, and ATAD2 depletion reduced the levels of nascent chromatin-associated, acetylated H4 in wild-type and hdac2 cells. We propose that overexpressed ATAD2 shifts the balance of H4 acetylation by protecting this mark from removal and that HDAC2 but not HDAC1 can effectively compete with ATAD2 for the target acetyls. ATAD2 depletion also reduced global RNA synthesis and nascent DNA-associated RNA. A moderate dependence on ATAD2 for replication fork progression was noted only for hdac2 cells overexpressing the protein.

Abstract
Pre-exposure to volatile anesthetics inhibits inflammation induced by various stimuli, including surgical procedures and ischemia. We hypothesize that volatile anesthetics may induce anti-inflammatory effects via a mechanism involving regulation of histone deacetylases (HDACs). Pre-exposure of 1.5% isoflurane for 0.5 h induced anti-inflammatory effects [measured by cytokine production of tumor necrosis factor-ɑ, interleukin-8 (IL-8) and IL-1β] in both human THP-1 cells and primary human peripheral blood monocytes stimulated by lipopolysaccharide. In human THP-1 cells, coadministration of the HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) blocked the isoflurane-induced anti-inflammatory effects. TSA also blocked isoflurane-upregulated HDAC1-3 expression and isoflurane-reduced nuclear translocation of p65 and p50 subunits of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). The ability of isoflurane to reduce NF-κB nuclear translocation and proinflammatory responses in the cell line was blocked by gene silencing of HDAC1 and HDAC2, but not by gene silencing of HDAC3. A coimmunoprecipitation assay demonstrated that the decreased interaction between HDAC1 and HDAC2 through lipopolysaccharide was restored by isoflurane pretreatment. These findings were validated in primary human peripheral blood monocytes wherein gene silencing of HDAC1 and HDAC2 resulted in increased cytokine production and NF-κB nuclear translocation induced by isoflurane pre-exposure and lipopolysaccharide stimulation. These results indicate that anti-inflammatory effects of the volatile anesthetic isoflurane in human monocytes involve regulation of HDAC1 and HDAC2.

Abstract
Background HIV-1 hijacks the cellular machinery for its own replication through protein-protein interactions between viral and host cell factors. One strategy against HIV-1 infection is thus to target these key protein complexes. As the integration of reverse transcribed viral cDNA into a host cell chromosome is an essential step in the HIV-1 life cycle, catalyzed by the viral integrase and other important host factors, we aimed at identifying new integrase binding partners through a novel approach. Methods A LTR-derived biotinylated DNA fragment complexed with the integrase on magnetic beads was incubated with extracts from integrase-expressing 293 T cells. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry and co-immunoprecipitation/pull-down experiments were used for the identification of binding partners. Transfections of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) expression vectors and/or specific siRNA were conducted in HeLa-CD4 and 293 T cells followed by infection with fully infectious NL4–3 and luciferase-expressing pseudotyped viruses or by proviral DNA transfection. Fully infectious and pseudotyped viruses produced from HDAC1-silenced 293 T cells were tested for their infectivity toward HeLa-CD4 cells, T cell lines and primary CD4+ T cells. Late RT species and integrated viral DNA were quantified by qPCR and infectivity was measured by luciferase activity and p24 ELISA assay. Results were analyzed by the Student’s t-test. Results Using our integrase-LTR bait approach, we successfully identified new potential integrase-binding partners, including HDAC1. We further confirmed that HDAC1 interacted with the HIV-1 integrase in co-immunoprecipitation and pull-down experiments. HDAC1 knockdown in infected HeLa cells was shown to interfere with an early preintegration step of the HIV-1 replication cycle, which possibly involves reverse transcription. We also observed that, while HDAC1 overexpression inhibited HIV-1 expression after integration, HDAC1 knockdown had no effect on this step. In virus producer cells, HDAC1 knockdown had a limited impact on virus infectivity in either cell lines or primary CD4+ T cells. Conclusions Our results show that HDAC1 interacts with the HIV-1 integrase and affects virus replication before and after integration. Overall, HDAC1 appears to facilitate HIV-1 replication with a major effect on a preintegration step, which likely occurs at the reverse transcription step.

The Epstein-Barr Virus BMRF1 Protein Activates Transcription and Inhibits the DNA Damage Response by Binding NuRD. J Virol 2019; 93:e01070-19. [PMID: 31462557 PMCID: PMC6819917 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01070-19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2019] [Accepted: 08/16/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The BMRF1 protein of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has multiple roles in viral lytic infection, including serving as the DNA polymerase processivity factor, activating transcription from several EBV promoters and inhibiting the host DNA damage response to double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs). Using affinity purification coupled to mass spectrometry, we identified the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylation (NuRD) complex as the top interactor of BMRF1. We further found that NuRD components localize with BMRF1 at viral replication compartments and that this interaction occurs through the BMRF1 C-terminal region previously shown to mediate transcriptional activation. We identified an RBBP4 binding motif within this region that can interact with both RBBP4 and MTA2 components of the NuRD complex and showed that point mutation of this motif abrogates NuRD binding as well as the ability of BMRF1 to activate transcription from the BDLF3 and BLLF1 EBV promoters. In addition to its role in transcriptional regulation, NuRD has been shown to contribute to DSB signaling in enabling recruitment of RNF168 ubiquitin ligase and subsequent ubiquitylation at the break. We showed that BMRF1 inhibited RNF168 recruitment and ubiquitylation at DSBs and that this inhibition was at least partly relieved by loss of the NuRD interaction. The results reveal a mechanism by which BMRF1 activates transcription and inhibits DSB signaling and a novel role for NuRD in transcriptional activation in EBV.IMPORTANCE The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) BMRF1 protein is critical for EBV infection, playing key roles in viral genome replication, activation of EBV genes, and inhibition of host DNA damage responses (DDRs). Here we show that BMRF1 targets the cellular nucleosome remodeling and deacetylation (NuRD) complex, using a motif in the BMRF1 transcriptional activation sequence. Mutation of this motif disrupts the ability of BMRF1 to activate transcription and interfere with DDRs, showing the importance of the NuRD interaction for BMRF1 functions. BMRF1 was shown to act at the same step in the DDR as NuRD, suggesting that it interferes with NuRD function.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, and highly lethal lung disease with unknown etiology and poor prognosis. IPF patients die within 2 years after diagnosis mostly due to respiratory failure. Current treatments against IPF aim to ameliorate patient symptoms and to delay disease progression. Unfortunately, therapies targeting the causes of or reverting IPF have not yet been developed. Here we show that reduced levels of miRNA lethal 7d (MIRLET7D) in IPF compromise epigenetic gene silencing mediated by the ribonucleoprotein complex MiCEE. In addition, we find that hyperactive EP300 reduces nuclear HDAC activity and interferes with MiCEE function in IPF. Remarkably, EP300 inhibition reduces fibrotic hallmarks of in vitro (patient-derived primary fibroblast), in vivo (bleomycin mouse model), and ex vivo (precision-cut lung slices, PCLS) IPF models. Our work provides the molecular basis for therapies against IPF using EP300 inhibition. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lethal disease with insufficient treatment strategies. Here the authors show that reduction of the microRNA MIRLET7D and hyperactivation of EP300 contribute to impaired epigenetic silencing by the MiCEE complex in pulmonary fibroblasts of IPF patients, and demonstrate the benefit of inhibiting EP300 for the treatment of IPF.

Abstract
Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in NIPBL, RAD21, SMC3, HDAC8, or SMC1A; all of which code for proteins that are components of, or interact with, the cohesin complex. Despite the identification of multiple genes associated with CdLS, over 25% of individuals strongly suspected to have CdLS have negative genetic testing, indicating that there are additional genes associated with the condition. HDAC2 codes for histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and, like HDAC8, is a Class 1 histone deacetylase. We present a patient with a novel de novo variant in HDAC2 with many clinical features consistent with CdLS including severe developmental delay, limb abnormalities, congenital heart defect, cryptorchidism and hypoplastic genitalia, growth retardation, and characteristic craniofacial features. Although variants in HDAC2 are not currently associated with human disease, the variant identified in this patient is within a highly conserved amino acid residue and has not been observed in healthy populations. This information, along with the patient's clinical presentation and the functional similarity between the HDAC2 and HDAC8 proteins, suggests that HDAC2 should be further investigated as a candidate gene for CdLS or a CdLS-like syndrome.

Differential HDAC1/2 network analysis reveals a role for prefoldin/CCT in HDAC1/2 complex assembly. Sci Rep 2018; 8:13712.

Abstract
HDAC1 and HDAC2 are components of several corepressor complexes (NuRD, Sin3, CoREST and MiDAC) that regulate transcription by deacetylating histones resulting in a more compact chromatin environment. This limits access of transcriptional machinery to genes and silences transcription. While using an AP-MS approach to map HDAC1/2 protein interaction networks, we noticed that N-terminally tagged versions of HDAC1 and HDAC2 did not assemble into HDAC corepressor complexes as expected, but instead appeared to be stalled with components of the prefoldin-CCT chaperonin pathway. These N-terminally tagged HDACs were also catalytically inactive. In contrast to the N-terminally tagged HDACs, C-terminally tagged HDAC1 and HDAC2 captured complete histone deacetylase complexes and the purified proteins had deacetylation activity that could be inhibited by SAHA (Vorinostat), a Class I/II HDAC inhibitor. This tag-mediated reprogramming of the HDAC1/2 protein interaction network suggests a mechanism whereby HDAC1 is first loaded into the CCT complex by prefoldin to complete folding, and then assembled into active, functional HDAC complexes. Imaging revealed that the prefoldin subunit VBP1 colocalises with nuclear HDAC1, suggesting that delivery of HDAC1 to the CCT complex happens in the nucleus.

Abstract
Bilateral symmetry is a striking feature of the vertebrate body plan organization. Vertebral precursors, called somites, provide one of the best illustrations of embryonic symmetry. Maintenance of somitogenesis symmetry requires retinoic acid (RA) and its coactivator Rere/Atrophin2. Here, using a proteomic approach we identify a protein complex, containing Wdr5, Hdac1, Hdac2 and Rere (named WHHERE), which regulates RA signaling and controls embryonic symmetry. We demonstrate that Wdr5, Hdac1, and Hdac2 are required for RA signaling in vitro and in vivo. Mouse mutants for Wdr5 and Hdac1 exhibit asymmetrical somite formation characteristic of RA-deficiency. We also identify the Rere-binding histone methyltransferase Ehmt2/G9a, as a RA coactivator controlling somite symmetry. Upon RA treatment, WHHERE and Ehmt2 become enriched at RA target genes to promote RNA polymerase II recruitment. Our work identifies a protein complex linking key epigenetic regulators acting in the molecular control of embryonic bilateral symmetry.Retinoic acid (RA) regulates the maintenance of somitogenesis symmetry. Here, the authors use a proteomic approach to identify a protein complex of Wdr5, Hdac1, Hdac2 that act together with RA and coactivator Rere/Atrophin2 and a histone methyltransferase Ehmt2 to regulate embryonic symmetry.

Abstract
Calcium-dependent nuclear export of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) was shown previously to precede axonal damage in culture, but the in vivo relevance of these findings and the potential posttranslational modifications of HDAC1 remained elusive. Using acute hippocampal slices from mice of either sex with genetic conditional ablation of Hdac1 in CA1 hippocampal neurons (i.e., Camk2a-cre;Hdac1fl/fl), we show significantly diminished axonal damage in response to neurotoxic stimuli. The protective effect of Hdac1 ablation was detected also in CA3 neurons in Grik4-cre;Hdac1fl/f mice, which were more resistant to the excitotoxic damage induced by intraventricular injection of kainic acid. The amino acid residues modulating HDAC1 subcellular localization were identified by site-directed mutagenesis, which identified serine residues 421 and 423 as critical for its nuclear localization. The physiological phosphorylation of HDAC1 was decreased by neurotoxic stimuli, which stimulated the phosphatase enzymatic activity of calcineurin. Treatment of neurons with the calcineurin inhibitors FK506 or cyclosporin A resulted in nuclear accumulation of phospho-HDAC1 and was neuroprotective. Together, our data identify HDAC1 and the phosphorylation of specific serine residues in the molecule as potential targets for neuroprotection.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT The importance of histone deacetylation in normal brain functions and pathological conditions is unquestionable, yet the molecular mechanisms responsible for the neurotoxic potential of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and its subcellular localization are not fully understood. Here, we use transgenic lines to define the in vivo relevance of HDAC1 and identify calcineurin-dependent serine dephosphorylation as the signal modulating the neurotoxic role of HDAC1 in response to neurotoxic stimuli.

Abstract
Histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important epigenetic coregulators. It has been thought that HDACs associate with corepressor complexes and repress gene transcription; however, in this study, we have found that PU.1-a key master regulator for hematopoietic self-renewal and lineage specification-requires HDAC activity for gene activation. Deregulated PU.1 gene expression is linked to dysregulated hematopoiesis and the development of leukemia. In this study, we used erythroid differentiation as a model to analyze how the PU.1 gene is regulated. We found that active HDAC1 is directly recruited to active PU.1 promoter in progenitor cells, whereas acetylated HDAC1, which is inactive, is on the silenced PU.1 promoter in differentiated erythroid cells. We then studied the mechanism of HDAC1-mediated activation. We discovered that HDAC1 activates PU.1 gene transcription via deacetylation of TATA-binding protein-associated factor 9 (TAF9), a component in the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex. Treatment with HDAC inhibitor results in an increase in TAF9 acetylation. Acetylated TAF9 does not bind to the PU.1 gene promoter and subsequently leads to the disassociation of the TFIID complex and transcription repression. Thus, these results demonstrate a key role for HDAC1 in PU.1 gene transcription and, more importantly, uncover a novel mechanism of TFIID recruitment and gene activation.-Jian, W., Yan, B., Huang, S., Qiu, Y.

Abstract
In breast carcinoma cells, high levels of hyaluronan (HA) and its CD44 receptor are frequently associated with alteration in estrogen signaling. We demonstrate that stable hyaluronate synthase 2 (HAS2) overexpression in estrogen receptor α (ERα) -positive MCF7 cells oppositely altered estrogen dependence of cell growth and its sensitivity towards antiestrogens. Albeit without effect on ERα expression and estradiol binding properties, HAS2 overexpression increased ERα Ser118 phosphorylation as well as transcriptional activity of estrogen in an ERE-luciferase reporter gene assay. However, HAS2 overexpression induced partial silencing of E2 driven-genes without affecting the magnitude of regulation by estradiol. This effect was associated with half-reduction in the activity of nuclear histone deacetylases (HDACs) through a post-translational mechanism likely consecutive to the enhanced expression of the histone acetyl-transferase EP300. In conclusion, increase in HA/CD44 interactions may contribute, through an HDAC inhibitor-like and ER-independent mechanism, to the silencing of estrogen-driven genes in breast carcinoma.

Abstract
Cognitive functions require the expression of an appropriate pattern of genes in response to environmental stimuli. Over the last years, many studies have accumulated knowledge towards the understanding of molecular mechanisms that regulate neuronal gene expression. Epigenetic modifications have been shown to play an important role in numerous neuronal functions, from synaptic plasticity to learning and memory. In particular, histone acetylation is a central player in these processes. In this review, we present the molecular mechanisms of histone acetylation and summarize the data underlying the relevance of histone acetylation in cognitive functions in normal and pathological conditions. In the last part, we discuss the different mechanisms underlying the dysregulation of histone acetylation associated with neurological disorders, with a particular focus on environmental causes (stress, drugs, or infectious agents) that are linked to impaired histone acetylation.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase (Hdac3) inhibitors are emerging therapies for many diseases including cancers and neurological disorders; however, these drugs are teratogens to the developing skeleton. Hdac3 is essential for proper endochondral ossification as its deletion in chondrocytes increases cytokine signaling and the expression of matrix remodeling enzymes. Here we explored the mechanism by which Hdac3 controls matrix metalloproteinase (Mmp)-13 expression in chondrocytes. In Hdac3-depleted chondrocytes, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)1/2 as well as its downstream substrate, Runx2, were hyperphosphorylated as a result of decreased expression and activity of the Erk1/2 specific phosphatase, Dusp6. Erk1/2 kinase inhibitors and Dusp6 adenoviruses reduced Mmp13 expression and partially rescued matrix production in Hdac3-deficient chondrocytes. Postnatal chondrocyte-specific deletion of Hdac3 with an inducible Col2a1-Cre caused premature production of pErk1/2 and Mmp13 in the growth plate. Thus, Hdac3 controls the temporal and spatial expression of tissue-remodeling genes in chondrocytes to ensure proper endochondral ossification during development.

Abstract
Transcription factor (TF) recruitment to chromatin is central to activation of transcription. TF-chromatin interactions are highly dynamic, which are evaluated by recovery half time (t1/2) in seconds, determined by fluorescence recovery experiments in living cells, and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis, measured in minutes. These two states are related: the larger the t1/2, the longer the ChIP occupancy resulting in increased transcription. Here we present data showing that this relationship does not always hold. We found that histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) significantly increased t1/2 of green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused androgen receptor (AR) on a tandem array of positive hormone response elements (HREs) in chromatin. This resulted in increased ChIP signal of GFP-AR. Unexpectedly, however, transcription was inhibited. In contrast, the GFP-fused glucocorticoid receptor (GR), acting through the same HREs, displayed a profile consistent with current models. We provide evidence that these differences are mediated, at least in part, by HDACs. Our results provide insight into TF action in living cells and show that very closely related TFs may trigger significantly divergent outcomes at the same REs.

Abstract
Group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2 or PLA2G4A) is a key enzyme that contributes to inflammation via the generation of arachidonic acid and eicosanoids. While much is known about regulation of cPLA2 by posttranslational modification such as phosphorylation, little is known about its epigenetic regulation. In this study, treatment with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, trichostatin A (TSA), valproic acid, tubacin and the class I HDAC inhibitor, MS-275, were found to increase cPLA2α messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Co-treatment of the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) inhibitor, anacardic acid, modulated upregulation of cPLA2α induced by TSA. Specific involvement of class I HDACs and HAT in cPLA2α regulation was further shown, and a Tip60-specific HAT inhibitor, NU9056, modulated the upregulation of cPLA2α induced by MS-275. In addition, co-treatment of with histone methyltransferase (HMT) inhibitor, 5'-deoxy-5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) suppressed TSA-induced cPLA2α upregulation. The above changes in cPLA2 mRNA expression were reflected at the protein level by Western blots and immunocytochemistry. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) showed TSA increased binding of trimethylated H3K4 to the proximal promoter region of the cPLA2α gene. Cell injury after TSA treatment as indicated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was modulated by anacardic acid, and a role of cPLA2 in mediating TSA-induced injury shown, after co-incubation with the cPLA2 selective inhibitor, arachidonoyl trifluoromethyl ketone (AACOCF3). Together, results indicate epigenetic regulation of cPLA2 and the potential of such regulation for treatment of chronic inflammation.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor p53 is an essential transcription factor that sensitively regulates cellular responses to various stresses. Acetylation, a critically important posttranslational modification of p53, is induced in response to cellular stresses. P53 acetylation level strongly correlates with protein stability and activity. The steady-state level of p53 acetylation is balanced by dynamic acetylation and deacetylation. Despite the function of p53 acetylation being well studied, how the steady state of p53 acetylation level is regulated in response to cellular stresses remains unclear. In particular, the dynamic regulation of the deacetylase activities responsible for p53 deacetylation during cellular stress is unknown. In the current study, we investigated the dynamic regulation of HDAC1 (histone deacetylase 1) and SIRT1 (sirtuin 1), two major enzymes for p53 deacetylation, during cell stress. We found that various cell stress events induce HDAC1 acetylation. The increased level of HDAC1 acetylation correlates with the level of p53 acetylation. Acetylated HDAC1 loses the ability to deacetylate p53. Cellular stresses also promote the decline of the SIRT1 protein in a proteasome-dependent pathway, which also results in the increase of p53 acetylation. Importantly, the decreased level of SIRT1 also contributes to the accumulation of HDAC1 acetylation as SIRT1 deacetylates HDAC1. Therefore, the increase of HDAC1 acetylation and reduced level of SIRT1 protein during cellular stress directly link to the induction of p53 acetylation. These results unveil the mechanism underlying the dynamic regulation of p53 acetylation during cell stress.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are widely studied targets for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. Up to now, over twenty HDAC inhibitors have entered clinical studies and two of them have already reached the market, namely the hydroxamic acid derivative SAHA (vorinostat, Zolinza) and the cyclic depsipeptide FK228 (romidepsin, Istodax) that have been approved for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). A common aspect of the first HDAC inhibitors is the absence of any particular selectivity towards specific isozymes. Some of molecules resulted to be “pan”-HDAC inhibitors, while others are class I selective. In the meantime, the knowledge of HDAC biology has continuously progressed. Key advances in the structural biology of various isozymes, reliable molecular homology models as well as suitable biological assays have provided new tools for drug discovery activities. This Minireview aims at surveying these recent developments as well as the design, synthesis and biological characterization of isoform-selective derivatives.

Abstract
Several epidemiological studies have reported an association between arsenic exposure and increased rates of psychiatric disorders, including depression, in exposed populations. We have previously demonstrated that developmental exposure to low amounts of arsenic induces depression in adulthood along with several morphological and molecular aberrations, particularly associated with the hippocampus and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The extent and potential reversibility of this toxin-induced damage has not been characterized to date. In this study, we assessed the effects of fluoxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressant, on adult animals exposed to arsenic during development. Perinatal arsenic exposure (PAE) induced depressive-like symptoms in a mild learned helplessness task and in the forced swim task after acute exposure to a predator odor (2,4,5-trimethylthiazoline, TMT). Chronic fluoxetine treatment prevented these behaviors in both tasks in arsenic-exposed animals and ameliorated arsenic-induced blunted stress responses, as measured by corticosterone (CORT) levels before and after TMT exposure. Morphologically, chronic fluoxetine treatment reversed deficits in adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) after PAE, specifically differentiation and survival of neural progenitor cells. Protein expression of BDNF, CREB, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), and HDAC2 was significantly increased in the dentate gyrus of arsenic animals after fluoxetine treatment. This study demonstrates that damage induced by perinatal arsenic exposure is reversible with chronic fluoxetine treatment resulting in restored resiliency to depression via a neurogenic mechanism.

Abstract
Lysine acetyltransferases (KATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important epigenetic modifiers and dynamically cycled on active gene promoters to regulate transcription. Although HDACs are recruited to gene promoters and DNA hypersensitive sites through interactions with DNA binding factors, HDAC activities are also found globally in intergenic regions where DNA binding factors are not present. It is suggested that HDACs are recruited to those regions through other distinct, yet undefined mechanisms. Here we show that HDACs can be directly recruited to chromatin in the absence of other factors through direct interactions with both DNA and core histone subunits. HDACs interact with DNA in a non-sequence specific manner. HDAC1 and p300 directly bind to the overlapping regions of the histone H3 tail and compete for histone binding. Previously we show that p300 can acetylate HDAC1 to attenuate deacetylase activity. Here we have further mapped two distinct regions of HDAC1 that interact with p300. Interestingly, these regions of HDAC1 also associate with histone H3. More importantly, p300 and HDAC1 compete for chromatin binding both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, the mutually exclusive associations of HDAC1/p300, p300/histone, and HDAC1/histone on chromatin contribute to the dynamic regulation of histone acetylation by balancing HDAC or KAT activity present at histones to reorganize chromatin structure and regulate transcription.

Abstract
Lysine deacetylases have been known to regulate nuclear receptor function for many years. In the unliganded state, nuclear receptors that form heterodimers with retinoid X receptors, such as the retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptors, associate with deacetylases to repress target genes. In the case of steroid receptors, binding of an antagonist ligand was initially reported to induce association of deacetylases to prevent activation of target genes. Since then, deacetylases have been shown to have diverse functions in steroid receptor signaling, from regulating interactions with molecular chaperones to facilitating their ability to activate transcription. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent studies on the role of deacetylases in steroid receptor signaling, which show deacetylases to be highly versatile regulators of steroid receptor function.

Abstract
Protein lysine deacetylases (KDACs), including the classic Zn(2+) -dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs) and the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+) )-requiring sirtuins, are enzymes that play critical roles in numerous biological processes, particularly the epigenetic regulation of global gene expression programs in response to internal and external cues. Dysregulation of KDACs is characteristic of several human diseases, including chronic metabolic, neurodegenerative, and cardiovascular diseases and many cancers. This has led to the development of KDAC modulators, two of which (HDAC inhibitors vorinostat and romidepsin) have been approved for the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. By their nature, existing KDAC modulators are relatively nonspecific, leading to pan-KDAC changes and undesired side effects. Given that KDACs are regulated at many levels, including transcriptional, post-translational, subcellular localization, and through their complexation with other proteins, it should be possible to affect specific KDAC activity through manipulation of endogenous signaling pathways. In this Minireview, we discuss our present knowledge of the cellular controls of KDAC activity and examples of their pharmacologic regulation.

Abstract
The Rpd3-like members of the class I lysine deacetylase family are important regulators of chromatin structure and gene expression and have pivotal functions in the control of proliferation, differentiation and development. The highly related class I deacetylases HDAC1 and HDAC2 have partially overlapping but also isoform-specific roles in diverse biological processes, whereas HDAC3 and HDAC8 have unique functions. This review describes the role of class I KDACs in the regulation of transcription as well as their non-transcriptional functions, in particular their contributions to splicing, mitosis/meiosis, replication and DNA repair. During the past years, a number of mouse loss-of-function studies provided new insights into the individual roles of class I deacetylases in cell cycle control, differentiation and tumorigenesis. Simultaneous ablation of HDAC1 and HDAC2 or single deletion of Hdac3 severely impairs cell cycle progression in all proliferating cell types indicating that these class I deacetylases are promising targets for small molecule inhibitors as anti-tumor drugs.

Abstract
The African lungfish, Protopterus annectens, can undergo aestivation during drought. Aestivation has three phases: induction, maintenance and arousal. The objective of this study was to examine the differential gene expression in the brain of P. annectens during the induction (6 days) and maintenance (6 months) phases of aestivation as compared with the freshwater control using suppression subtractive hybridization. During the induction phase of aestivation, the mRNA expression of prolactin (prl) and growth hormone were up-regulated in the brain of P. annectens, which indicate for the first time the possible induction role of these two hormones in aestivation. Also, the up-regulation of mRNA expression of tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein γ polypeptide and the down-regulation of phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein, suggest that there could be a reduction in biological and neuronal activities in the brain. The mRNA expression of cold inducible RNA-binding protein and glucose regulated protein 58 were also up-regulated in the brain, probably to enhance their cytoprotective effects. Furthermore, the down-regulation of prothymosin α expression suggests that there could be a suppression of transcription and cell proliferation in preparation for the maintenance phase. In general, the induction phase appeared to be characterized by reduction in glycolytic capacity and metabolic activity, suppression of protein synthesis and degradation, and an increase in defense against ammonia toxicity. In contrast, there was a down-regulation in the mRNA expression of prl in the brain of P. annectens during the maintenance phase of aestivation. In addition, there could be an increase in oxidative defense capacity, and up-regulation of transcription, translation, and glycolytic capacities in preparation for arousal. Overall, our results signify the importance of reconstruction of protein structures and regulation of energy expenditure during the induction phase, and the needs to suppress protein degradation and conserve metabolic fuel stores during the maintenance phase of aestivation.

Abstract
Nuclear receptors use lysine acetyltransferases and lysine deacetylases (KDACs) in regulating transcription through histone acetylation. Lysine acetyltransferases interact with steroid receptors upon binding of an agonist and are recruited to target genes. KDACs have been shown to interact with steroid receptors upon binding to an antagonist. We have shown previously that KDAC inhibitors (KDACis) potently repress the mouse mammary tumor virus promoter through transcriptional mechanisms and impair the ability of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to activate it, suggesting that KDACs can play a positive role in GR transactivation. In the current study, we extended this analysis to the entire GR transcriptome and found that the KDACi valproic acid impairs the ability of agonist-bound GR to activate about 50% of its target genes. This inhibition is largely due to impaired transcription rather than defective GR processing and was also observed using a structurally distinct KDACi. Depletion of KDAC1 expression mimicked the effects of KDACi in over half of the genes found to be impaired in GR transactivation. Simultaneous depletion of KDACs 1 and 2 caused full or partial impairment of several more GR target genes. Altogether we found that Class I KDAC activity facilitates GR-mediated activation at a sizable fraction of GR-activated target genes and that KDAC1 alone or in coordination with KDAC2 is required for efficient GR transactivation at many of these target genes. Finally, our work demonstrates that KDACi exposure has a significant impact on GR signaling and thus has ramifications for the clinical use of these drugs.

Abstract
Defects in DNA repair have been linked to cognitive decline with age and neurodegenerative disease, yet the mechanisms that protect neurons from genotoxic stress remain largely obscure. We sought to characterize the roles of the NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 in the neuronal response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). We found that SIRT1 was rapidly recruited to DSBs in postmitotic neurons, where it showed a synergistic relationship with ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM). SIRT1 recruitment to breaks was ATM dependent; however, SIRT1 also stimulated ATM autophosphorylation and activity and stabilized ATM at DSB sites. After DSB induction, SIRT1 also bound the neuroprotective class I histone deacetylase HDAC1. We found that SIRT1 deacetylated HDAC1 and stimulated its enzymatic activity, which was necessary for DSB repair through the nonhomologous end-joining pathway. HDAC1 mutations that mimic a constitutively acetylated state rendered neurons more susceptible to DNA damage, whereas pharmacological SIRT1 activators that promoted HDAC1 deacetylation also reduced DNA damage in two mouse models of neurodegeneration. We propose that SIRT1 is an apical transducer of the DSB response and that SIRT1 activation offers an important therapeutic avenue in neurodegeneration.

Abstract
The lamina serves to maintain the nuclear structure and stiffness while acting as a scaffold for heterochromatin and many transcriptional proteins. Its role in endothelial mechanotransduction, specifically how nuclear mechanics impact gene regulation under shear stress, is not fully understood. In this study, we successfully silenced lamin A/C in bovine aortic endothelial cells to determine its role in both glucocorticoid receptor (GR) nuclear translocation and glucocorticoid response element (GRE) transcriptional activation in response to dexamethasone and shear stress. Nuclear translocation of GR, an anti-inflammatory nuclear receptor, in response to dexamethasone or shear stress (5, 10, and 25 dyn/cm(2)) was observed via time-lapse cell imaging and quantified using a Bayesian image analysis algorithm. Transcriptional activity of the GRE promoter was assessed using a dual-luciferase reporter plasmid. We found no dependence on nuclear lamina for GR translocation from the cytoplasm into the nucleus. However, the absence of lamin A/C led to significantly increased expression of luciferase under dexamethasone and shear stress induction as well as changes in histone protein function. PCR results for NF-κB inhibitor alpha (NF-κBIA) and dual specificity phosphatase 1 (DUSP1) genes further supported our luciferase data with increased expression in the absence of lamin. Our results suggest that absence of lamin A/C does not hinder passage of GR into the nucleus, but nuclear lamina is important to properly regulate GRE transcription. Nuclear lamina, rather than histone deacetylase (HDAC), is a more significant mediator of shear stress-induced transcriptional activity, while dexamethasone-initiated transcription is more HDAC dependent. Our findings provide more insights into the molecular pathways involved in nuclear mechanotransduction.

Abstract
Maspin, a class II tumor suppressor, is often downregulated during tumor progression and its depletion from the nucleus is associated with poor prognosis. Recently, we reported that reintroduction of maspin is sufficient for redifferentiation of prostate cancer cells to epithelial phenotype, a reversal of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. We have linked this effect of maspin with its ability to directly inhibit HDAC1, thereby influencing the acetylation state of transcription factors and other proteins. Maspin overexpression leads to changes in the expression level of a large number of proteins and these changes are often microenvironment specific. In this review, we summarize the epigenetic effects of maspin and provide comprehensive bioinformatic analysis of microarray-derived gene expression changes caused by maspin in different microenvironments. The analysis was performed on multiple levels, including identification of statistically enriched gene ontology groups, detection of overreprepresented transcription factors binding sites in promoters of differentially expressed genes, followed by searching for key nodes of regulatory networks controlling these transcription factors. The results are consistent with our hypothesis that maspin serves as an endogenous regulator of HDAC activity and suggest that the effect of maspin is primarily mediated by TGFβ, β-catenin/E-cadherin pathways, and network key nodes such as Abl kinase, p62, IL1, and caspases 6 and 8.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and HDAC2 are components of corepressor complexes that are involved in chromatin remodeling and regulation of gene expression by regulating dynamic protein acetylation. HDAC1 and -2 form homo- and heterodimers, and their activity is dependent upon dimer formation. Phosphorylation of HDAC1 and/or HDAC2 in interphase cells is required for the formation of HDAC corepressor complexes. In this study, we show that during mitosis, HDAC2 and, to a lesser extent, HDAC1 phosphorylation levels dramatically increase. When HDAC1 and -2 are displaced from the chromosome during metaphase, they dissociate from each other, but each enzyme remains in association with components of the HDAC corepressor complexes Sin3, NuRD, and CoREST as homodimers. Enzyme inhibition studies and mutational analyses demonstrated that protein kinase CK2-catalyzed phosphorylation of HDAC1 and -2 is crucial for the dissociation of these two enzymes. These results suggest that corepressor complexes, including HDAC1 or HDAC2 homodimers, might target different cellular proteins during mitosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Class I histone deacetylases (HDACs) are often overexpressed in cancer, and their inhibition typically leads cancer cells, but not normal cells, to apoptosis. Hence, the field of cancer therapy has experienced a continued surge in the development of HDAC inhibitors. AREAS COVERED Class I comprises of HDAC1, 2, 3 and 8. HDAC1, 2 and 3 are active as subunits of multiprotein complexes while an HDAC8 complex has not been identified. Besides being a major contributor to poor prognosis in childhood neuroblastoma, little is known of HDAC8 functions and substrates. The targeting and activities of HDAC1 - 3 are modulated by post-translational modifications and association with numerous proteins. The composition of the various HDAC complexes is cell type dependent and fluctuates with intra- and intercellular stimuli. These HDAC complexes play roles at multiple levels in gene expression and genome stability. The application of isoform-specific HDAC inhibitors has met with varying success in clinical trials. EXPERT OPINION To elucidate the mechanism and cellular impact of HDAC inhibitors, we need to identify the spectrum of class I HDAC complexes and their functions. In the cases of HDAC1 - 3, selectivity of HDAC inhibitors should be directed against relevant complexes. HDAC8 active site unique features facilitate the design of selective inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HDAC1-containing NuRD complex is required for GATA-1-mediated repression and activation. RESULTS GATA-1 associated with acetylated HDAC1-containing NuRD complex, which has no deacetylase activity, for gene activation. CONCLUSION Acetylated HDAC1 converts NuRD complex from a repressor to an activator during GATA-1-directed erythroid differentiation program. SIGNIFICANCE HDAC1 acetylation may function as a master regulator for the activity of HDAC1 containing complexes. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play important roles in regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. The HDAC1-containing NuRD complex is generally considered as a corepressor complex and is required for GATA-1-mediated repression. However, recent studies also show that the NuRD complex is involved in GATA-1-mediated gene activation. We tested whether the GATA-1-associated NuRD complex loses its deacetylase activity and commits the GATA-1 complex to become an activator during erythropoiesis. We found that GATA-1-associated deacetylase activity gradually decreased upon induction of erythroid differentiation. GATA-1-associated HDAC1 is increasingly acetylated after differentiation. It has been demonstrated earlier that acetylated HDAC1 has no deacetylase activity. Indeed, overexpression of an HDAC1 mutant, which mimics acetylated HDAC1, promotes GATA-1-mediated transcription and erythroid differentiation. Furthermore, during erythroid differentiation, acetylated HDAC1 recruitment is increased at GATA-1-activated genes, whereas it is significantly decreased at GATA-1-repressed genes. Interestingly, deacetylase activity is not required for Mi2 remodeling activity, suggesting that remodeling activity may be required for both activation and repression. Thus, our data suggest that NuRD can function as a coactivator or repressor and that acetylated HDAC1 converts the NuRD complex from a repressor to an activator during GATA-1-directed erythroid differentiation.
