    Abstract:
    Myc is a transcription factor that features prominently in cancer. The oncogenicity of Myc stems from its ability to regulate expression of genes required for cell growth and proliferation. Although the mechanisms through which Myc activates transcription have been extensively studied, less is known about how Myc represses transcription. Recently, we reported that a conserved element within Myc-MbIII- is important for transcriptional repression. Here, we investigate the mechanism through which MbIII contributes to repression. We show that Myc represses transcription of target genes Id2 and Gadd153 by a process that involves histone deacetylation. We show that MbIII is important for repression of these genes and present evidence that this element contributes to repression by recruiting the histone deacetylase HDAC3 to the Id2 and Gadd153 promoters. These results describe a mechanistic role for MbIII in transcription, and reveal that recruitment of HDAC3 is a process by which Myc represses gene activity.

    Transcriptional repression mediated by corepressors N-CoR and SMRT is a critical function of nuclear hormone receptors, and is dysregulated in human myeloid leukemias. At the present time, these corepressors are thought to act exclusively through an mSin3/HDAC1 complex. Surprisingly, however, numerous biochemical studies have not detected N-CoR or SMRT in mSin3- and HDAC1-containing complexes. Each corepressor contains multiple repression domains (RDs), the significance of which is unknown. Here we show that these RDs are nonredundant, and that one RD, which is conserved in N-CoR and SMRT, represses transcription by interacting directly with class II HDAC4 and HDAC5. Endogenous N-CoR and SMRT each associate with HDAC4 in a complex that does not contain mSin3A or HDAC1. This is the first example of a single corepressor utilizing distinct domains to engage multiple HDAC complexes. The alternative HDAC complexes may mediate specific repression pathways in normal as well as leukemic cells.

    Abstract Histone deacetylases (HDACs) deacetylate both histones and nonhistone proteins and play a key role in the regulation of physiologic and aberrant gene expression. Inhibition of HDACs has emerged as a promising therapeutic target for cancer and neurologic diseases. In this study we investigated the osteogenic effect and mechanism of action of MS-275, a class I HDAC inhibitor with preference for HDAC1. Both local and systemic administration of MS-275 stimulated bone regeneration in animal models. MS-275 stimulated mRNA expression and activity of the early osteogenic marker tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) in bone tissue and osteogenic cells. By using a series of TNAP promoter deletion constructs and a DNA affinity precipitation assay, we identified DExH-box helicase Dhx36 as a factor that binds to the MS-275 response element in the TNAP promoter. We also found that Dhx36 binding to the MS-275 response element is crucial for MS-275 induction of TNAP transcription. Dhx36 physically interacted with a subset of HDACs (HDAC1 and -4) whose protein levels were downregulated by MS-275, and forced expression of these HDACs blunted the stimulatory effects of MS-275 by a deacetylase activity–independent mechanism(s). Taken together, the results of our study show that MS-275 induces TNAP transcription by decreasing the interaction of HDAC1/4 with Dhx36, which can at least in part contribute to the bone anabolic effects of MS-275. © 2011 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research

    Ligand- and structure-based virtual screening methods were employed to identify novel non-hydroxamate histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors. Based on the newly identified hit compound 17a, three series of compounds were synthesized and evaluated for both HDAC1 inhibitory activity and cytotoxicity. Binding modes of representative structures were analyzed using the docking method to explain the observed disparity in HDAC1 inhibitory activities.

    Ferroptosis is a unique type of cell death, characterized by its reliance on iron dependency and lipid peroxidation (LPO). Consequently, small-molecule ferroptosis modulators have garnered substantial interest as a promising avenue for cancer therapy. Herein, we explored the ferroptosis sensitivity of epigenetic modulators and found that the antiproliferative effects of class I histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are significantly reliant on ferroptosis. Subsequently, we developed a novel series of HDAC inhibitors, identifying HL-5s with robust inhibitory activity against class I HDACs, particularly HDAC1. Notably, HL-5s induces ferroptosis by augmenting LPO production. Mechanistically, HL-5s increased the YB-1 acetylation and inhibited the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. Furthermore, HL-5s not only significantly suppresses tumor growth in the PC-9 xenograft model but also remodels the tumor microenvironment in the LLC allograft model. Our study has unveiled that class I HDAC inhibitors can exert antitumor effects by triggering ferroptosis, and HL-5s may serve as a promising candidate for future cancer treatment.

    Treatment of mammalian cells with small molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors induces changes in the transcription of specific genes. These changes correlate directly with an increase in the acetylation levels of all four core histones in vivo . Antibodies directed against endogenous HDAC1, HDAC2, or HDAC3 immunoprecipitate histone deacetylase activity that is inhibited in vitro by the small molecule trapoxin (TPX), and all three HDACs are retained by a TPX-affinity matrix. HDAC1 and HDAC2 are associated in HeLa cells in a complex that is predominantly separate from an HDAC3 immune complex. Both Jurkat HDAC1 and HeLa HDAC1/2 immune complexes deacetylate all four core histones and recombinant HDAC1 deacetylates free and nucleosomal histones in vitro . Purified recombinant HDAC1 deacetylates core histones in the absence of protein cofactors. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to identify residues required for the enzymatic and structural integrity of HDAC1. Mutation of any one of four conserved residues causes deleterious effects on deacetylase activity and a reduced ability to bind a TPX-affinity matrix. A subset of these mutations also cause a decreased interaction with the HDAC1-associated proteins RbAp48 and mSin3A. Disruption of histone deacetylase activity either by TPX or by direct mutation of a histidine presumed to be in the active site abrogates HDAC1-mediated transcriptional repression of a targeted reporter gene in vivo .
