Abstract
Protein lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is one conserved form of posttranslational modifications of proteins, which plays an important role in a series of cellular physiological and pathological processes. Lysine ε-amino groups are the primary sites of such modification, resulting in four-carbon planar lysine crotonylation that is structurally and functionally distinct from the acetylation of these residues. High levels of Kcr modifications have been identified on both histone and non-histone proteins. The present review offers an update on the research progression regarding protein Kcr modifications in biomedical contexts and provides a discussion of the mechanisms whereby Kcr modification governs a range of biological processes. In addition, given the importance of protein Kcr modification in disease onset and progression, the potential viability of Kcr regulators as therapeutic targets is elucidated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical, chemical, and biological factors in the environment constantly influence in vivo and in vitro biological processes, including diverse histone modifications involved in cancer and metabolism. However, the intricate mechanisms of acetylation regulation remain poorly elucidated. In mammalian spermatogenesis, acetylation plays a crucial role in repairing double-strand DNA breaks, regulating gene transcription, and modulating various signaling pathways. RESULTS This review summarizes the histone acetylation sites in the mouse testis and provides a comprehensive overview of how histone acetylation is involved in different stages of spermatogenesis under the regulation by histone deacetylases. The regulatory functions of various class histone deacetylases during spermatogenesis and the crossroad between histone acetylation and other histone modifications are highlighted. It is imperative to understand the mechanisms of histone acetylation regulated by histone deacetylases in spermatogenesis, which facilitates to prevent and treat infertility-related diseases.

P300 regulates histone crotonylation and preimplantation embryo development. Nat Commun 2024; 15:6418.

Abstract
Histone lysine crotonylation, an evolutionarily conserved modification differing from acetylation, exerts pivotal control over diverse biological processes. Among these are gene transcriptional regulation, spermatogenesis, and cell cycle processes. However, the dynamic changes and functions of histone crotonylation in preimplantation embryonic development in mammals remain unclear. Here, we show that the transcription coactivator P300 functions as a writer of histone crotonylation during embryonic development. Depletion of P300 results in significant developmental defects and dysregulation of the transcriptome of embryos. Importantly, we demonstrate that P300 catalyzes the crotonylation of histone, directly stimulating transcription and regulating gene expression, thereby ensuring successful progression of embryo development up to the blastocyst stage. Moreover, the modification of histone H3 lysine 18 crotonylation (H3K18cr) is primarily localized to active promoter regions. This modification serves as a distinctive epigenetic indicator of crucial transcriptional regulators, facilitating the activation of gene transcription. Together, our results propose a model wherein P300-mediated histone crotonylation plays a crucial role in regulating the fate of embryonic development.

Abstract
Light serves as a crucial external zeitgeber for maintaining and restoring physiological homeostasis in most organisms. Disrupting of light rhythms often leads to abnormal immune function, characterized by excessive inflammatory responses. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms behind this phenomenon remain unclear. To address this concern, we use in vivo imaging to establish inflammation models in zebrafish, allowing us to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of light disruption on neutrophil recruitment. Our findings reveal that under sustained light conditions (LL), neutrophil recruitment in response to caudal fin injury and otic vesicle inflammation is significantly increased. This is accompanied by elevated levels of histone (H3K18) lactylation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) content. Through ChIP-sequencing and ChIP‒qPCR analysis, we discover that H3K18 lactylation regulates the transcriptional activation of the duox gene, leading to ROS production. In turn, ROS further promote H3K18 lactylation, forming a positive feedback loop. This loop, driven by H3K18 lactylation-ROS, ultimately results in the over recruitment of neutrophils to inflammatory sites in LL conditions. Collectively, our study provides evidence of a mutual loop between histone lactylation and ROS, exacerbating neutrophil recruitment in light disorder conditions, emphasizing the significance of maintaining a proper light-dark cycle to optimize immune function.

Abstract
Tumour immunotherapy is an effective and essential treatment for cancer. However, the heterogeneity of tumours and the complex and changeable tumour immune microenvironment (TME) creates many uncertainties in the clinical application of immunotherapy, such as different responses to tumour immunotherapy and significant differences in individual efficacy. It makes anti-tumour immunotherapy face many challenges. Immunometabolism is a critical determinant of immune cell response to specific immune effector molecules, significantly affecting the effects of tumour immunotherapy. It is attributed mainly to the fact that metabolites can regulate the function of immune cells and immune-related molecules through the protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) pathway. This study systematically summarizes a variety of novel protein PTMs including acetylation, propionylation, butyrylation, succinylation, crotonylation, malonylation, glutarylation, 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation, β-hydroxybutyrylation, benzoylation, lactylation and isonicotinylation in the field of tumour immune regulation and immunotherapy. In particular, we elaborate on how different PTMs in the TME can affect the function of immune cells and lead to immune evasion in cancer. Lastly, we highlight the potential treatment with the combined application of target-inhibited protein modification and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for improved immunotherapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Pan-vascular diseases, based on systems biology theory, explore the commonalities and individualities of important target organs such as cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and peripheral blood vessels, starting from the systemic and holistic aspects of vascular diseases. The purpose is to understand the interrelationships and results between them, achieve vascular health or sub-health, and comprehensively improve the physical and mental health of the entire population. Post-translational modification (PTM) is an important part of epigenetics, including phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, methylation, etc., playing a crucial role in the pan-vascular system. Crotonylation is a novel type of PTM that has made significant progress in the research of pan-vascular related diseases in recent years. Based on the review of previous studies, this article summarises the various regulatory factors of crotonylation, physiological functions and the mechanisms of histone and non-histone crotonylation in regulating pan-vascular related diseases to explore the possibility of precise regulation of crotonylation sites as potential targets for disease treatment and the value of clinical translation.

Abstract
The histone acetyltransferase HBO1, also known as KAT7, is a major chromatin modifying enzyme responsible for H3 and H4 acetylation. It is found within two distinct tetrameric complexes, the JADE subunit-containing complex and BRPF subunit-containing complex. The HBO1-JADE complex acetylates lysine 5, 8 and 12 of histone H4, and the HBO1-BRPF complex acetylates lysine 14 of histone H3. HBO1 regulates gene transcription, DNA replication, DNA damage repair, and centromere function. It is involved in diverse signaling pathways and plays crucial roles in development and stem cell biology. Recent work has established a strong relationship of HBO1 with the histone methyltransferase MLL/KMT2A in acute myeloid leukemia. Here, we discuss functional and pathological links of HBO1 to cancer, highlighting the underlying mechanisms that may pave the way to the development of novel anti-cancer therapies.

Abstract
TGF-β signaling family plays an essential role to regulate fate decisions in pluripotency and lineage specification. How the action of TGF-β family signaling is intrinsically executed remains not fully elucidated. Here, we show that HBO1, a MYST histone acetyltransferase (HAT) is an essential cell intrinsic determinant for TGF-β signaling in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). HBO1-/- hESCs fail to response to TGF-β signaling to maintain pluripotency and spontaneously differentiate into neuroectoderm. Moreover, HBO1 deficient hESCs show complete defect in mesendoderm specification in BMP4-triggered gastruloids or teratomas. Molecularly, HBO1 interacts with SMAD4 and co-binds the open chromatin labeled by H3K14ac and H3K4me3 in undifferentiated hESCs. Upon differentiation, HBO1/SMAD4 co-bind and maintain the mesoderm genes in BMP4-triggered mesoderm cells while lose chromatin occupancy in neural cells induced by dual-SMAD inhibition. Our data reveal an essential role of HBO1, a chromatin factor to determine the action of SMAD in both human pluripotency and mesendoderm specification.

HBO1 catalyzes lysine lactylation and mediates histone H3K9la to regulate gene transcription. Nat Commun 2024; 15:3561. [PMID: 38670996 PMCID: PMC11053077 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-47900-6] [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: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Lysine lactylation (Kla) links metabolism and gene regulation and plays a key role in multiple biological processes. However, the regulatory mechanism and functional consequence of Kla remain to be explored. Here, we report that HBO1 functions as a lysine lactyltransferase to regulate transcription. We show that HBO1 catalyzes the addition of Kla in vitro and intracellularly, and E508 is a key site for the lactyltransferase activity of HBO1. Quantitative proteomic analysis further reveals 95 endogenous Kla sites targeted by HBO1, with the majority located on histones. Using site-specific antibodies, we find that HBO1 may preferentially catalyze histone H3K9la and scaffold proteins including JADE1 and BRPF2 can promote the enzymatic activity for histone Kla. Notably, CUT&Tag assays demonstrate that HBO1 is required for histone H3K9la on transcription start sites (TSSs). Besides, the regulated Kla can promote key signaling pathways and tumorigenesis, which is further supported by evaluating the malignant behaviors of HBO1- knockout (KO) tumor cells, as well as the level of histone H3K9la in clinical tissues. Our study reveals HBO1 serves as a lactyltransferase to mediate a histone Kla-dependent gene transcription.

Abstract
Lysine acylation, a type of posttranslational protein modification sensitive to cellular metabolic states, influences the functions of target proteins involved in diverse cellular processes. Particularly, lysine butyrylation, crotonylation, β-hydroxybutyrylation, and 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation, four types of four-carbon acylations, are modulated by intracellular concentrations of their respective acyl-CoAs and sensitive to alterations of nutrient metabolism induced by cellular and/or environmental signals. In this review, we discussed the metabolic pathways producing these four-carbon acyl-CoAs, the regulation of lysine acylation and deacylation, and the functions of individual lysine acylation.

Abstract
Lysine acetyltransferases (KATs) are a family of epigenetic enzymes involved in the regulation of gene expression; they represent a promising class of emerging drug targets. The frequent molecular dysregulation of these enzymes, as well as their mechanistic links to biological functions that are crucial to cancer, have led to exploration around the development of small-molecule inhibitors against KATs. Despite early challenges, recent advances have led to the development of potent and selective enzymatic and bromodomain (BRD) KAT inhibitors. In this review we discuss the discovery and development of new KAT inhibitors and their application as oncology therapeutics. Additionally, new chemically induced proximity approaches are presented, offering opportunities for unique target selectivity profiles and tissue-specific targeting of KATs. Emerging clinical data for CREB binding protein (CREBBP)/EP300 BRD inhibitors and KAT6 catalytic inhibitors indicate the promise of this target class in cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is a lethal malignancy with elevated replication stress (RS) levels and defective RS and RS-associated DNA damage responses. Here we demonstrate that the bromodomain-containing protein BRD1 is a RS suppressing protein that forms a replication origin regulatory complex with the histone acetyltransferase HBO1, the BRCA1 tumor suppressor, and BARD1, ORigin FIring Under Stress (ORFIUS). BRD1 and HBO1 promote eventual origin firing by supporting localization of the origin licensing protein ORC2 at origins. In the absence of BRD1 and/or HBO1, both origin firing and nuclei with ORC2 foci are reduced. BRCA1 regulates BRD1, HBO1, and ORC2 localization at replication origins. In the absence of BRCA1, both origin firing and nuclei with BRD1, HBO1, and ORC2 foci are increased. In normal and non-HGSC ovarian cancer cells, the ORFIUS complex responds to ATR and CDC7 origin regulatory signaling and disengages from origins during RS. In BRCA1-mutant and sporadic HGSC cells, BRD1, HBO1, and ORC2 remain associated with replication origins, and unresponsive to RS, DNA damage, or origin regulatory kinase inhibition. ORFIUS complex dysregulation may promote HGSC cell survival by allowing for upregulated origin firing and cell cycle progression despite accumulating DNA damage, and may be a RS target.

Abstract
In mammalian brain development, WNT signaling balances proliferation and differentiation of neural progenitor cells, and is essential for the maintenance of regular brain development. JADE1 is a candidate transcription co-factor essential for DNA replication, cell division, and cell cycle regulation. In 293T cells, JADE1 is stabilized by von Hippel-Lindau protein pVHL, promotes the β-catenin ubiquitination and thus blunts canonical WNT signaling. Furthermore, JADE1 inhibits β-catenin-induced ectopic axis formation in Xenopus embryos. However, JADE1's role in mammalian brain development remains unknown. Here, we generated a new Jade1 knockout mouse line using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. We found that JADE1 null resulted in decreased survival rate, reduced body weight and brain weight in mice. However, histological analysis revealed a normal brain development. Furthermore, Jade1 null neural progenitor cells proliferated normally in vivo and in vitro. RNA-seq analysis further showed that JADE1 loss did not affect the cerebral cortex gene expression. Our findings indicate that JADE1 is dispensable for developing the cerebral cortex in mice.

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
Post-translational modifications (PTM) are covalent modifications of proteins or peptides caused by proteolytic cleavage or the attachment of moieties to one or more amino acids. PTMs play essential roles in biological function and regulation and have been linked with several diseases. Modifications of protein acylation (Kac), a type of PTM, are known to induce epigenetic regulatory processes that promote various diseases. Thus, an increasing number of studies focusing on acylation modifications are being undertaken. Butyrylation (Kbu) is a new acylation process found in animals and plants. Kbu has been recently linked to the onset and progression of several diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and vascular dementia. Moreover, the mode of action of certain drugs used in the treatment of lymphoma and colon cancer is based on the regulation of butyrylation levels, suggesting that butyrylation may play a therapeutic role in these diseases. In addition, butyrylation is also commonly involved in rice gene expression and thus plays an important role in the growth, development, and metabolism of rice. The tools and analytical methods that could be utilized for the prediction and detection of lysine butyrylation have also been investigated. This study reviews the potential role of histone Kbu, as well as the mechanisms underlying this process. It also summarizes various enzymes and analytical methods associated with Kbu, with the goal of providing new insights into the role of Kbu in gene regulation and diseases.

Abstract
PARP inhibitors (PARPi) kill cancer cells by stalling DNA replication and preventing DNA repair, resulting in a critical accumulation of DNA damage. Resistance to PARPi is a growing clinical problem in the treatment of high grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). Acetylation of histone H3 lysine 14 (H3K14ac) and associated histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and epigenetic readers have known functions in DNA repair and replication. Our objectives are to examine their expression and activities in the context of PARPi-resistant HGSOC, and to determine if targeting H3K14ac or associated proteins has therapeutic potential. Using mass spectrometry profiling of histone modifications, we observed increased H3K14ac enrichment in PARPi-resistant HGSOC cells relative to isogenic PARPi-sensitive lines. By reverse-transcriptase quantitative PCR and RNA-seq, we also observed altered expression of numerous HATs in PARPi-resistant HGSOC cells and a PARPi-resistant PDX model. Knockdown of HATs only modestly altered PARPi response, although knockdown and inhibition of PCAF significantly increased resistance. Pharmacologic inhibition of HBO1 depleted H3K14ac but did not affect PARPi response. However, knockdown and inhibition of BRPF3, a bromodomain and PHD-finger containing protein that is known to interact in a complex with HBO1, did reduce PARPi resistance. This study demonstrates that depletion of H3K14ac does not affect PARPi response in HGSOC. Our data suggest that the bromodomain function of HAT proteins, such as PCAF, or accessory proteins, such as BRPF3, may play a more direct role compared to direct HATs function in PARPi response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Breast cancers constitute heterogeneous tumor groups and their categorization in subtypes based on the expression of the estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR) and HER2 receptors has advanced therapeutics. Claudin-low breast cancer has been proposed as an additional subtype which is mostly ER, PR and HER2 negative, but its identification has not led to corresponding specific treatments yet. MATERIALS AND METHODS Breast cancer cell lines from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) were assessed for mRNA suppression of claudins and mRNA expression of ER and ERBB2 (the gene encoding HER2). The set of identified claudin-low cell lines were compared with representative ER-/ERBB2- cell lines for associated molecular alterations, gene dependencies through CRISPR and microRNA arrays and in vitro drug sensitivities using the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) project. RESULTS Claudin-low cell lines display up-regulation of mRNA expression of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) regulators. Methylation sensitive genes are down-regulated in claudin-low lines compared with other cell lines, without associated up-regulation of DNA methyltransferases. Dependency screen microarrays reveal dependencies of claudin-low cell lines on components of the cytoskeleton but no consistent dependencies in known oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Potential drug sensitivities revealed in the drug screens included sensitivities to WNT pathway modulators, tyrosine kinase cascade inhibitors and BET inhibitors. On the other hand, claudin-low cell lines showed resistance to deacetylase inhibitors. CONCLUSION Claudin-low cell line models duplicate features of claudin-low breast cancers and may serve as guides for identification of drugs worth exploring for further development.

Abstract
DNA damage caused by internal or external factors lead to increased genomic instability and various diseases. The DNA damage response (DDR) is a crucial mechanism that maintaining genomic stability through detecting and repairing DNA damage timely. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play significant roles in regulation of DDR. Among the present PTMs, crotonylation has emerged as a novel identified modification that is involved in a wide range of biological processes including gene expression, spermatogenesis, cell cycle, and the development of diverse diseases. In the past decade, numerous crotonylation sites have been identified in histone and non-histone proteins, leading to a more comprehensive and deep understanding of the function and mechanisms in protein crotonylation. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the regulatory mechanisms of protein crotonylation and the effect of crotonylation in DDR. Furthermore, the effect of protein crotonylation in tumor development and progression is presented, to inspire and explore the novel strategies for tumor therapy.

Abstract
CD8+ tissue-resident memory T (Trm) cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) regulate tumor immunity and immune surveillance. Characterization of Trm cells and TILs could help identify potential strategies to boost antitumor immunity. Here, we found that the transcription factor SCML4 was required for the progression and polyfunctionality of Trm cells and was associated with a better prognosis in patients with cancer. Moreover, SCML4 maintained multiple functions of TILs. Increased expression of SCML4 in CD8+ cells significantly reduced the growth of multiple types of tumors in mice, while deletion of SCML4 reduced antitumor immunity and promoted CD8+ T-cell exhaustion. Mechanistically, SCML4 recruited the HBO1-BRPF2-ING4 complex to reprogram the expression of T cell-specific genes, thereby enhancing the survival and effector functions of Trm cells and TILs. SCML4 expression was promoted by fatty acid metabolism through mTOR-IRF4-PRDM1 signaling, and fatty acid metabolism-induced epigenetic modifications that promoted tissue-resident and multifunctional gene expression in Trm cells and TILs. SCML4 increased the therapeutic effect of anti-PD-1 treatment by elevating the expression of effector molecules in TILs and inhibiting the apoptosis of TILs, which could be further enhanced by adding an inhibitor of H3K14ac deacetylation. These results provide a mechanistic perspective of functional regulation of tumor-localized Trm cells and TILs and identify an important activation target for tumor immunotherapy. SIGNIFICANCE SCML4 upregulation in CD8+ Trm cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes induced by fatty acid metabolism enhances antitumor immune responses, providing an immunometabolic axis to target for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Histone lysine crotonylation was first identified as a new type of post-translational modification in 2011. In recent years, prominent progress has been made in the study of histone and nonhistone crotonylation in reproduction, development, and disease. Although the regulatory enzyme systems and targets of crotonylation partially overlap with those of acetylation, the peculiar CC bond structure of crotonylation suggests that crotonylation may have specific biological functions. In this review, we summarize the latest research progress regarding crotonylation, especially its regulatory factors and relationship with diseases, which suggest further research directions for crotonylation and provide new ideas for developing disease intervention and treatment regimens.

Abstract
Lysine succinylation is one of the major post-translational modifications occurring on histones and is believed to have significant roles in regulating chromatin structure and function. Currently, histone desuccinylation is widely believed to be catalyzed by members of the SIRT family deacetylases. Here, we report that histone desuccinylation is in fact primarily catalyzed by the class I HDAC1/2/3. Inhibition or depletion of HDAC1/2/3 resulted in a marked increase of global histone succinylation, whereas ectopic expression of HDAC1/2/3 but not their deacetylase inactive mutants downregulated global histone succinylation. We demonstrated that the class I HDAC1/2/3 complexes have robust histone desuccinylase activity in vitro. Genomic landscape analysis revealed that histone succinylation is highly enriched at gene promoters and inhibition of HDAC activity results in marked elevation of promoter histone succinylation. Furthermore, our integrated analysis revealed that promoter histone succinylation positively correlates with gene transcriptional activity. Collectively, we demonstrate that the class I HDAC1/2/3 but not the SIRT family proteins are the major histone desuccinylases particularly important for promoter histone desuccinylation. Our study thus sheds new light on the role of histone succinylation in transcriptional regulation.

Abstract
Histones are DNA-binding basic proteins found in chromosomes. After the histone translation, its amino tail undergoes various modifications, such as methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, malonylation, propionylation, butyrylation, crotonylation, and lactylation, which together constitute the "histone code." The relationship between their combination and biological function can be used as an important epigenetic marker. Methylation and demethylation of the same histone residue, acetylation and deacetylation, phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, and even methylation and acetylation between different histone residues cooperate or antagonize with each other, forming a complex network. Histone-modifying enzymes, which cause numerous histone codes, have become a hot topic in the research on cancer therapeutic targets. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the role of histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) in cell life activities is very important for preventing and treating human diseases. In this review, several most thoroughly studied and newly discovered histone PTMs are introduced. Furthermore, we focus on the histone-modifying enzymes with carcinogenic potential, their abnormal modification sites in various tumors, and multiple essential molecular regulation mechanism. Finally, we summarize the missing areas of the current research and point out the direction of future research. We hope to provide a comprehensive understanding and promote further research in this field.

Abstract
Legionella pneumophila replicates intracellularly by secreting effectors via a type IV secretion system. One of these effectors is a eukaryotic methyltransferase (RomA) that methylates K14 of histone H3 (H3K14me3) to counteract host immune responses. However, it is not known how L. pneumophila infection catalyses H3K14 methylation as this residue is usually acetylated. Here we show that L. pneumophila secretes a eukaryotic-like histone deacetylase (LphD) that specifically targets H3K14ac and works in synergy with RomA. Both effectors target host chromatin and bind the HBO1 histone acetyltransferase complex that acetylates H3K14. Full activity of RomA is dependent on the presence of LphD as H3K14 methylation levels are significantly decreased in a ∆lphD mutant. The dependency of these two chromatin-modifying effectors on each other is further substantiated by mutational and virulence assays revealing that the presence of only one of these two effectors impairs intracellular replication, while a double knockout (∆lphD∆romA) can restore intracellular replication. Uniquely, we present evidence for "para-effectors", an effector pair, that actively and coordinately modify host histones to hijack the host response. The identification of epigenetic marks modulated by pathogens has the potential to lead to the development of innovative therapeutic strategies to counteract bacterial infection and strengthening host defences.

Abstract
Accurate and integral cellular DNA replication is modulated by multiple replication-associated proteins, which is fundamental to preserve genome stability. Furthermore, replication proteins cooperate with multiple DNA damage factors to deal with replication stress through mechanisms beyond their role in replication. Cancer cells with chronic replication stress exhibit aberrant DNA replication and DNA damage response, providing an exploitable therapeutic target in tumors. Numerous evidence has indicated that posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of replication proteins present distinct functions in DNA replication and respond to replication stress. In addition, abundant replication proteins are involved in tumorigenesis and development, which act as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in some tumors, implying these proteins act as therapeutic targets in clinical. Replication-target cancer therapy emerges as the times require. In this context, we outline the current investigation of the DNA replication mechanism, and simultaneously enumerate the aberrant expression of replication proteins as hallmark for various diseases, revealing their therapeutic potential for target therapy. Meanwhile, we also discuss current observations that the novel PTM of replication proteins in response to replication stress, which seems to be a promising strategy to eliminate diseases.

HBO1 as an Important Target for the Treatment of CCL4-Induced Liver Fibrosis and Aged-Related Liver Aging and Fibrosis. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:1881519.

Abstract
The liver is the largest digestive organ in the human body. The increasing incidence of chronic liver fibrosis is one of the major health challenges in the world. Liver fibrosis is a wound-healing response to acute or chronic cellular damage of liver tissue. At present, despite a series of research progress on the pathophysiological mechanism of fibrosis that has been made, there is still a gap in identifying antifibrotic targets and converting them into effective treatments. Therefore, it is extremely important to seek a molecular target that can alleviate or reverse liver fibrosis, which has important scientific and clinical significance. In the current study, to evaluate the therapeutic effect of HBO1 as a molecular target on liver aging and fibrosis, naturally-aged mice and CCL4-induced liver fibrosis mice were used as animal models, and multiple experiments were performed. Experimental results showed that HBO1 knockdown could strongly mitigate the accumulation of hepatic collagen by Masson and Sirius Red staining. Further study showed that HBO1 knockdown reduced the expression of fibrosis-related marker molecules (α-SMA, collagen type I (ColI), and fibronectin). Further work showed that HBO1 knockdown could significantly alleviate HSC activation. On this basis, we analyzed the underlying mechanism by which HBO1 alleviates liver fibrosis. It was found that HBO1 knockdown may modulate liver fibrosis by regulating the processes of EMT, inflammation, and oxidative stress. We further studied the effect of HBO1 knockdown on liver aging and aging-related liver fibrosis, and the results showed that HBO1 knockdown could significantly reduce the level of aging-related liver fibrosis and relieve liver aging. In conclusion, we systematically investigated the potential of HBO1 as a therapeutic target to attenuate liver fibrosis and liver aging. The current study found a crucial target for liver fibrosis and liver-aging therapy, which has laid a solid foundation for the liver fibrosis-related research.

Abstract
AbstractMetabolites are intermediate products of cellular metabolism catalysed by various enzymes. Metabolic remodelling, as a biochemical fingerprint of cancer cells, causes abnormal metabolite accumulation. These metabolites mainly generate energy or serve as signal transduction mediators via noncovalent interactions. After the development of highly sensitive mass spectrometry technology, various metabolites were shown to covalently modify proteins via forms of lysine acylation, including lysine acetylation, crotonylation, lactylation, succinylation, propionylation, butyrylation, malonylation, glutarylation, 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation and β-hydroxybutyrylation. These modifications can regulate gene expression and intracellular signalling pathways, highlighting the extensive roles of metabolites. Lysine acetylation is not discussed in detail in this review since it has been broadly investigated. We focus on the nine aforementioned novel lysine acylations beyond acetylation, which can be classified into two categories: histone acylations and nonhistone acylations. We summarize the characteristics and common functions of these acylation types and, most importantly, provide a glimpse into their fine-tuned control of tumorigenesis and potential value in tumour diagnosis, monitoring and therapy.

Abstract
The enzyme p300, besides having acetyltransferase activity, can also catalyze other acylation modifications, whose physiological implications are still being investigated. Here, we report that the level of histone butyrylation increases globally as well as locally in the promoters of pro-adipogenic genes during adipogenesis. To delineate the role of p300-catalyzed butyrylation from acetylation in adipogenesis, we identified a semisynthetic derivative (LTK-14A) of garcinol, which specifically inhibited histone butyrylation without affecting acetylation. Treatment of 3T3L1 cells with LTK-14A abolished adipogenesis with downregulation of pro-adipogenic genes along with inhibition of H4K5 butyrylation. Administering LTK-14A to high-fat diet-fed and genetically obese db/db mice led to attenuation/decrease in their weight gain. The reduced obesity could be partially attributed to the inhibition of H4K5 butyrylation in adipocytes and liver. This report therefore not only, for the first time, causally links histone butyrylation with adipogenesis but also presents a probable candidate for anti-obesity therapeutics.
