Abstract
Cytosolic histone deacetylase-10 (HDAC10) specifically deacetylates the modified polyamine N8-acetylspermidine (N8-AcSpd). Although intracellular concentrations of N8-AcSpd are low, extracellular sources can be abundant, particularly in the colonic lumen. Extracellular polyamines, including those from the diet and microbiota, can support tumor growth both locally and at distant sites. However, the contribution of N8-AcSpd in this context is unknown. We hypothesized that HDAC10, by converting N8- AcSpd to spermidine, may provide a source of this growth-supporting polyamine in circumstances of reduced polyamine biosynthesis, such as in polyamine-targeting anticancer therapies. Inhibitors of polyamine biosynthesis, including α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), inhibit tumor growth, but compensatory uptake of extracellular polyamines has limited their clinical success. Combining DFMO with inhibitors of polyamine uptake have improved the antitumor response. However, acetylated polyamines may use different transport machinery than the parent molecules. Here, we use CRISPR/Cas9-mediated HDAC10-knockout cell lines and HDAC10-specific inhibitors to investigate the contribution of HDAC10 in maintaining tumor cell proliferation. We demonstrate inhibition of cell growth by DFMO-associated polyamine depletion is successfully rescued by exogenous N8-AcSpd (at physiological concentrations), which is converted to spermidine and spermine, only in cell lines with HDAC10 activity. Furthermore, we show loss of HDAC10 prevents both restoration of polyamine levels and growth rescue, implicating HDAC10 in supporting polyamine-associated tumor growth. These data suggest the utility of HDAC10-specific inhibitors as an antitumor strategy that may have value in improving the response to polyamine-blocking therapies. Additionally, the cell-based assay developed in this study provides an inexpensive, high-throughput method of screening potentially selective HDAC10 inhibitors.

Abstract
The class I histone deacetylases are essential regulators of cell fate decisions in health and disease. While pan- and class-specific HDAC inhibitors are available, these drugs do not allow a comprehensive understanding of individual HDAC function, or the therapeutic potential of isoform-specific targeting. To systematically compare the impact of individual catalytic functions of HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC3, we generated human HAP1 cell lines expressing catalytically inactive HDAC enzymes. Using this genetic toolbox we compare the effect of individual HDAC inhibition with the effects of class I specific inhibitors on cell viability, protein acetylation and gene expression. Individual inactivation of HDAC1 or HDAC2 has only mild effects on cell viability, while HDAC3 inactivation or loss results in DNA damage and apoptosis. Inactivation of HDAC1/HDAC2 led to increased acetylation of components of the COREST co-repressor complex, reduced deacetylase activity associated with this complex and derepression of neuronal genes. HDAC3 controls the acetylation of nuclear hormone receptor associated proteins and the expression of nuclear hormone receptor regulated genes. Acetylation of specific histone acetyltransferases and HDACs is sensitive to inactivation of HDAC1/HDAC2. Over a wide range of assays, we determined that in particular HDAC1 or HDAC2 catalytic inactivation mimics class I specific HDAC inhibitors. Importantly, we further demonstrate that catalytic inactivation of HDAC1 or HDAC2 sensitizes cells to specific cancer drugs. In summary, our systematic study revealed isoform-specific roles of HDAC1/2/3 catalytic functions. We suggest that targeted genetic inactivation of particular isoforms effectively mimics pharmacological HDAC inhibition allowing the identification of relevant HDACs as targets for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important players in a variety of physiological and pathological conditions. Few studies have addressed HDAC expressions in human adipose tissue in obese individuals, and their association with pro-inflammatory cytokines. Here, we compared 20 non-obese and 20 obese women to investigate possible changes in gene expressions of HDAC2, 4, 5, and 6 in the subcutaneous adipose tissues (SAT) and visceral adipose tissues (VAT) of these individuals. Our findings showed decreased HDAC5 expression in SAT and elevated HDAC4 expression in VAT from the obese group compared with the non-obese group. Our analyses showed negative correlations between HDAC2, 5, and 6 and the obesity indices and positive correlations between HDAC4 and obesity indices. HDAC2 showed a positive correlation with pro-inflammatory cytokines whereas HDAC4, 5, and 6 were negatively correlated with pro-inflammatory cytokines. Our findings provide new evidence that implicates the important roles of HDACs in obesity and obesity-associated inflammation.

Abstract
The juvenile-to-adult vegetative phase change in flowering plants is mediated by a decrease in miR156 levels. Downregulation of MIR156A/MIR156C, the two major sources of miR156, is accompanied by a decrease in acetylation of histone 3 lysine 27 (H3K27ac) and an increase in trimethylation of H3K27 (H3K27me3) at MIR156A/MIR156C in Arabidopsis. Here, we show that histone deacetylase 9 (HDA9) is recruited to MIR156A/MIR156C during the juvenile phase and associates with the CHD3 chromatin remodeler PICKLE (PKL) to erase H3K27ac at MIR156A/MIR156C. H2Aub and H3K27me3 become enriched at MIR156A/MIR156C, and the recruitment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) to MIR156A/MIR156C is partially dependent on the activities of PKL and HDA9. Our results suggest that PKL associates with histone deacetylases to erase H3K27ac and promote PRC1 and PRC2 activities to mediate vegetative phase change and maintain plants in the adult phase after the phase transition.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are involved in many processes including tumor cell growth and proliferation and regulation of gene expression. To clarify the role of class IIa HDACs in the metastasis of colon adenocarcinoma, we used the class IIa HDAC inhibitor TMP269 and found that it effectively inhibited the migration ability of colon adenocarcinoma cells. Next, we silenced the member of class IIa HDACs and confirmed that the migratory ability of colon adenocarcinoma cells was significantly inhibited by silencing HDAC5 or HDAC7. HDAC5 plays a variety of roles in human cancers. Here, we examined the role of HDAC5 in colon adenocarcinoma. The results indicated that HDAC5 was highly expressed in tumor tissues and negatively correlated with the expression of miR-148a-3p. Moreover, the expression of HDAC5 was correlated with tumor progression. HDAC5 markedly increased the invasion and migration of cancer cells in vitro, an effect that could be inhibited by overexpression of miR-148a-3p. Following an intraperitoneal injection of colon adenocarcinoma cells in athymic nude mice, HDAC5 promoted tumor implant. Together, these findings showed that HDAC5 overexpression in colon adenocarcinoma is consistent with tumor progression and tumor cell migration and the impact of HDAC5 overexpression is reduced by miR-148a-3p.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Histone deacetylases, especially zinc-dependent deacetylases HDACs, are among attractive drug targets for treating cancer in recent years. AIM To explore the expression level of HDACs in several human cancer cell lines and examine the possible association between their expression and the sensitivity/resistance to the selective- or pan-HDAC inhibitors. MATERIALS AND METHODS The RNA expression of 11 HDACs isoforms was assayed in HeLa, HepG2, AV3, HEK293, A549, and K562 cells by semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The sensitivity/resistance of these cell lines to the pan- or selective- HDAC inhibitors was estimated by MTS assay. RESULTS The relative transcription of HDACs genes demonstrated that members of Class I HDAC (HDAC1, 2 and 3) and members of Class II HDAC (HDAC4, 5, 6 and 7) had slight to significant levels of expression in cell lines under study with no dominant HDAC-subtype gene transcription. pan-HDAC inhibitor demonstrated superior antitumor activity compared to HDAC isoform-selective inhibitor. CONCLUSION The absence of the dominant HDAC-subtype gene transcription in different human cancer cell lines explains the inferior efficacy of HDAC isoform-selective inhibitors as compared to pan-HDAC inhibitors.

Abstract
Myogenesis is an essential process that can affect the yield and quality of beef. Transcriptional studies have shown that histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) was differentially expressed in muscle tissues of 6 and 18 month old Longlin cattle, but its role in the regulation of myogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the role of HDAC11 in the proliferation and differentiation of bovine muscle stem cells (MuSCs). HDAC11 promoted MuSC proliferation by activating Notch signaling and inhibited myoblast differentiation by reducing MyoD1 transcription. In addition, overexpression of HDAC11 inhibited the repair regeneration process of muscle in mice. HDAC11 was found to be a novel key target for the control of myogenesis, and this is a theoretical basis for the development of HDAC11-specific modulators as a new strategy to regulate myogenesis.

Abstract
Leaf senescence is controlled by a complex regulatory network in which robustness is ensured by the activity of transcription factors and epigenetic regulators. However, how these coordinate the process of leaf senescence remains poorly understood. We found that WHIRLY1 interacts with Histone Deacetylase (HDA)15, a Reduced Potassium Dependence3 (RPD3)/HDA1-type HDA, by using green fluorescent protein-nanotrap-mass spectrum assays. The development-dependent interaction between WHIRLY1 and HDA15 was further confirmed by bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays and co-immunoprecipitation assays in Arabidopsis. Multi-omics genome-wide transcriptome and H3K9 acetylome enrichment analysis showed that HDA15 delays leaf senescence and flowering by repressing the expression of the positive regulators of leaf senescence and flowering, such as LOX2 and LARP1C, and reducing H3K9ac levels at these loci; WHIRLY1 and HDA15 co-target to the region near the transcription start site of a subset of nutrient recycling-related genes (e.g., Glutathione S-transferases 10, non-coding RNA, and photosystem II protein D1 synthesizer attenuator PDIL1-2), as well as WRKY53 and ELF4, and co-repress their expression by removing H3K9 acetylation. Our study revealed a key transcription regulatory node of nutrient recycling and senescence-associated genes involved in leaf senescence and flowering via the recruitment of HDA15 by the single-stranded DNA/RNA-binding protein WHIRLY1.

Abstract
Anthocyanin accumulation is a hallmark response to nitrogen (N) deficiency in Arabidopsis. Although the regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis has been extensively studied, the roles of chromatin modification in this process are largely unknown. In this study we show that anthocyanin accumulation induced by N deficiency is modulated by HISTONE DEACETYLASE15 (HDA15) in Arabidopsis seedlings. The hda15-1 T-DNA insertion mutant accumulated more anthocyanins than the wild-type when the N supply was limited, and this was caused by up-regulation of anthocyanin biosynthetic and regulatory genes in the mutant. The up-regulated genes also had increased levels of histone acetylation in the mutant. The accumulation of anthocyanins induced by sucrose and methyl jasmonate, but not that induced by H2O2 and phosphate starvation, was also greater in the hda15-1 mutant. While sucrose increased histone acetylation in the hda15-1 mutant in genes in a similar manner to that caused by N deficiency, methyl jasmonate only enhanced histone acetylation in the genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis. Our results suggest that different stresses act through distinct regulatory modules to activate anthocyanin biosynthesis, and that HDA15-mediated histone modification modulates the expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic and regulatory genes to avoid overaccumulation in response to N deficiency and other stresses.

Abstract
Cohesin structures the genome through the formation of chromatin loops and by holding together the sister chromatids. The acetylation of cohesin's SMC3 subunit is a dynamic process that involves the acetyltransferase ESCO1 and deacetylase HDAC8. Here we show that this cohesin acetylation cycle controls the three-dimensional genome in human cells. ESCO1 restricts the length of chromatin loops, and of architectural stripes emanating from CTCF sites. HDAC8 conversely promotes the extension of such loops and stripes. This role in controlling loop length turns out to be distinct from the canonical role of cohesin acetylation that protects against WAPL-mediated DNA release. We reveal that acetylation controls the interaction of cohesin with PDS5A to restrict chromatin loop length. Our data support a model in which this PDS5A-bound state acts as a brake that enables the pausing and restart of loop enlargement. The cohesin acetylation cycle hereby provides punctuation in the process of genome folding.

Abstract
The immune system plays a vital role in maintaining the delicate balance between immune recognition and tumor development. Regardless, it is not uncommon that cancerous cells can intelligently acquire abilities to bypass the antitumor immune responses, thus allowing continuous tumor growth and development. Immune evasion has emerged as a significant factor contributing to the progression and immune resistance of pancreatic cancer. Compared with other cancers, pancreatic cancer has a tumor microenvironment that can resist most treatment modalities, including emerging immunotherapy. Sadly, the use of immunotherapy has yet to bring significant clinical breakthrough among pancreatic cancer patients, suggesting that pancreatic cancer has successfully evaded immunomodulation. In this review, we summarize the impact of genetic alteration and epigenetic modification (especially histone deacetylases, HDAC) on immune evasion in pancreatic cancer. HDAC overexpression significantly suppresses tumor suppressor genes, contributing to tumor growth and progression. We review the evidence on HDAC inhibitors in tumor eradication, improving T cells activation, restoring tumor immunogenicity, and modulating programmed death 1 interaction. We provide our perspective in targeting HDAC as a strategy to reverse immune evasion in pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Salt tolerance during seed germination is essential for seedling establishment under salt stress. Sirtuin-like proteins, NAD+ -dependent histone deacetylases, are involved in plant responses to abiotic stresses; however, the regulatory mechanism remains unknown. We elucidated the mechanism underlying AtSRT2 (a sirtuin-like protein)-mediated regulation of salt tolerance during seed germination in Arabidopsis. The AtSRT2 mutant srt2 exhibited significantly reduced seed germination percentages under salt stress; its targets were identified via chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with ultra-high-throughput parallel DNA sequencing (ChIP-Seq) assay. Epistasis analysis was performed to identify AtSRT2-related pathways. Overexpression of SRT2.7, an AtSRT2 splice variant, rescued the salt-sensitive phenotype of mutant srt2. AtSRT2 histone deacetylation activity was important for salt tolerance during seed germination. The acetylation level of histone H4K8 locus in srt2-1 increased significantly under salt treatment. Vesicle-associated membrane protein 714 (VAMP714), a negative regulator of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 )-containing vesicle trafficking in cells, was identified as a target of AtSRT2. AtSRT2 regulated histone acetylation in the promoter region of VAMP714 and inhibited VAMP714 transcription under salt treatment. Seed germination percentage of double-mutant srt2-1vamp714 was close to that of single-mutant vamp714, and higher than that of single-mutant srt2 under salt stress. Hydrogen peroxide content and DNA damage increased after salt treatment in srt2 during seed germination. AtSRT2 regulates salt tolerance during seed germination through VAMP714 in Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Oncogenic transcription factors lacking enzymatic activity or targetable binding pockets are typically considered "undruggable". An example is provided by the EWS-FLI1 oncoprotein, whose continuous expression and activity as transcription factor are critically required for Ewing sarcoma tumor formation, maintenance, and proliferation. Because neither upstream nor downstream targets have so far disabled its oncogenic potential, we performed a high-throughput drug screen (HTS), enriched for FDA-approved drugs, coupled to a Global Protein Stability (GPS) approach to identify novel compounds capable to destabilize EWS-FLI1 protein by enhancing its degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The protein stability screen revealed the dual histone deacetylase (HDAC) and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor called fimepinostat (CUDC-907) as top candidate to modulate EWS-FLI1 stability. Fimepinostat strongly reduced EWS-FLI1 protein abundance, reduced viability of several Ewing sarcoma cell lines and PDX-derived primary cells and delayed tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model, whereas it did not significantly affect healthy cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that EWS-FLI1 protein levels were mainly regulated by fimepinostat's HDAC activity. Our study demonstrates that HTS combined to GPS is a reliable approach to identify drug candidates able to modulate stability of EWS-FLI1 and lays new ground for the development of novel therapeutic strategies aimed to reduce Ewing sarcoma tumor progression.

Abstract
Background Histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) is a member of the HDAC gene family that plays essential roles in the organization of transcriptional regulation by catalyzing deacetylation of histone proteins. However, the effects of HDAC9 on osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) have not been investigated. The present study aimed to reveal whether histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) regulated osteogenic differentiation. Methods A lentiviral knockdown HDAC9 model was established in hBMSCs. Osteoblast-specific gene expression, such as Runx2, OCN was examined by qRT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Though transcriptome sequencing and enrichment analysis, related signal pathways caused by down-regulation of HDAC9 were screened. The effect of HDAC9 on MAPK signaling pathway was determined by Western blot. Eventually, tert-Butylhydroquinone (tBHQ) was used to examine the effect of MAPK activation on osteogenesis in HDAC9 knockdown hBMSCs. Results A lentiviral knockdown HDAC9 model was successfully established in hBMSCs. HDAC9 knockdown significantly inhibited osteoblast-specific gene expression, such as runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteocalcin (OCN) and mineral deposition in vitro. Moreover, a total of 950 DEGs were identified in HDAC9-knockdown hBMSCs. We discovered that the MAPK signaling pathway might be related to this process by pathway enrichment analysis. HDAC9 knockdown significantly reduced the expression level of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (pERK1/2). Finally, the decreased osteogenesis due to HDAC9 knockdown was partly rescued by a MAPK signaling pathway activator. Conclusion Taken together, these results suggest that HDAC9 knockdown inhibits osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs, partially through the MAPK signaling pathway. HDAC9 may serve as a potential target for the treatment of ONFH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), differentially expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC), on 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) chemoresistance has not been fully explained. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical significance of ATF4-mediated microRNA-145 (miR-145)/histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4)/p53 axis in CRC. METHODS Initially, the expression of ATF4, miR-145, HDAC4, and p53 in CRC tissues and cells was quantified by RT-qPCR and immunoblotting. Next, luciferase activity and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were performed to verify the binding affinity among miR-145, ATF4, and HDAC4. Moreover, proliferation, clone formation, and apoptosis in CRC cells treated with 5-FU were assessed after gain- or loss-of-function of ATF4, miR-145, and/or HDAC4. Furthermore, the tumorigenicity and chemoresistance of CRC cells in mice were assayed for validating the in vitro findings. RESULTS ATF4 and HDAC4 were highly expressed, while miR-145 and p53 were poorly expressed in CRC tissues and cells. miR-145 targeted and negatively regulated HDAC4 to activate p53, and miR-145 expression was suppressed by ATF4. Of note, ATF4 facilitated cell proliferation and clone formation ability and repressed apoptosis to promote autophagy and chemoresistance of CRC cells by regulating the miR-145/HDAC4/p53 axis. In vivo experiment elucidated that ATF4-mediated miR-145/HDAC4/p53 axis enhanced tumorigenesis and resistance of CRC cells to 5-FU. CONCLUSION In conclusion, ATF4-mediated miR-145 inhibition accelerated autophagy of CRC cells and boosted their resistance to 5-FU via the HDAC4/p53 axis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cancer stem-like cells (CSLCs) are closely associated with tumor recurrence, metastasis, and drug-resistance. PHD-finger domain protein 5A (PHF5A) is related to tumorigenesis and development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The role and regulatory mechanism of PHF5A in CSLCs of NSCLC remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the biological characteristics of CSLCs and the role of PHF5A in maintaining stemness of NSCLC. METHODS H1299-spheres and A549-spheres were obtained by oncosphere-forming assay and CSLCs by flow cytometry. Expression of CD133, aldehyde dehydrogenase isoform 1, E-cadherin, vimentin, PHF5A, and histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) was tested using immunofluorescence staining, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting. CCK-8 and Transwell assays were employed to determine proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of CSLCs and adherent monolayer cells in NSCLC. We regulated PHF5A expression and HDAC activity in CSLCs to explore the mechanism of PHF5A in stemness maintenance and analyzed expression of target proteins in NSCLC tissues. RESULTS Compared with monolayer cells, CSLCs showed a decreased response to cisplatin-mediated inhibition of proliferation, increased migration and invasion, and high expression of PHF5A and HDAC8, accompanied by EMT marker alterations. Targeted knockdown of PHF5A in CSLCs of NSCLC resulted in diminished stemness phenotypes and HDAC8 expression, whereas inhibition of HDAC activity affected stemness maintenance. Moreover, the expression of target proteins showed consistent changes in NSCLC tissues. CONCLUSIONS Compared with monolayer cells, cancer stem-like phenotype properties of NSCLC were altered, PHF5A was involved in stemness maintenance of CSLCs, and this process may be related to the activation of HDAC8.

Abstract
Fruit development and ripening is a complicated biological process, that is not only regulated by plant hormones and transcription factors, but also affected by epigenetic modifications. Histone deacetylation is an important way of epigenetic modification, and little information about it is available. In this study, an RNAi vector was constructed and transferred successfully into wild-type tomato for further research on the detailed functions of the histone deacetylation gene SlHDT1. The expression level of PSY1 was upregulated, and the transcription levels of LCY-B, LCY-E and CYC-B were downregulated, which was consistent with the increased accumulation of carotenoids. In addition, the expression levels of ethylene biosynthetic genes (ACS2, ACS4 and ACO1, ACO3), ripening-associated genes (RIN, E4, E8, PG, Pti4 and LOXB) and fruit cell wall metabolism genes (HEX, MAN, TBG4, XTH5 and XYL) were significantly upregulated further strengthening the results, including an increased ethylene content, advanced fruit ripening time and a shortened shelf life of tomato fruits. In addition, the increased total histone H3 acetylation level also provides evidence of a connection between epigenetic regulation by histone deacetylation and fruit development and ripening. Hence, SlHDT1 is a negative regulator and plays an essential role in regulating ethylene and carotenoid biosynthesis during fruit ripening through influences on the acetylation level.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications of histones by histone demethylases plays an important role in the regulation of gene transcription and are implicated in cancers. Castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is often driven by constitutively active androgen receptor and commonly becomes resistant to established hormonal therapy strategies such as enzalutamide as a result. However, the role of KDM1B involved in next generation anti-enzalutamide resistance and the mechanisms of KDM1B regulation are poorly defined. Here, we show that KDM1B is upregulated and correlated with prostate cancer progression and poor prognosis. Downregulation of miR-215 is correlated with overexpression of KDM1B in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cells, which promotes AR-dependent AGR2 transcription and regulates the sensitivity to next generation AR-targeted therapy. Inhibition of KDM1B significantly inhibits prostate tumor growth and improves enzalutamide treatments through AGR2 suppression. Our studies demonstrate inhibition of KDM1B can offer a viable therapeutic option to overcome enzalutamide resistance in tumors with deregulated miR-215-KDM1B-AR-AGR2 signaling axis.

Abstract
As a serious and elusive syndrome caused by infection, sepsis causes a high rate of mortality around the world. Our investigation aims at exploring the role and possible mechanism of specificity protein-1 (SP1) in the development of sepsis. A mouse model of sepsis was established by cecal ligation perforation, and a cellular model was stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), followed by determination of the SP1 expression. It was determined that SP1 was poorly expressed in the intestinal tissues of septic mice and LPS-treated cells. Next, we examined the interactions among SP1, histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4), and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and found that SP1 bound to the HDAC4 promoter to upregulate its expression, thereby promoting the deacetylation of HMGB1. Meanwhile, gain- or loss-of-function approaches were applied to evaluate the intestinal barrier dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response. Overexpression of SP1 or underexpression of HMGB1 was observed to reduce intestinal barrier dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammatory injury. Collectively, these experimental data provide evidence reporting that SP1 could promote the HDAC4-mediated HMGB1 deacetylation to reduce intestinal barrier dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response induced by sepsis, providing a novel therapeutic target for sepsis prevention and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Jasmonates (JAs) mediate trade-off between responses to both biotic and abiotic stress and growth in plants. The Arabidopsis thaliana HISTONE DEACETYLASE 6 is part of the CORONATINE INSENSITIVE1 receptor complex, co-repressing the HDA6/COI1-dependent acetic acid-JA pathway that confers plant drought tolerance. The decrease in HDA6 binding to target DNA mirrors histone H4 acetylation (H4Ac) changes during JA-mediated drought response, and mutations in HDA6 also cause depletion in the constitutive repressive marker H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3). However, the genome-wide effect of HDA6 on H4Ac and much of the impact of JAs on histone modifications and chromatin remodelling remain elusive. RESULTS We performed high-throughput ChIP-Seq on the HDA6 mutant, axe1-5, and wild-type plants with or without methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment to assess changes in active H4ac and repressive H3K27me3 histone markers. Transcriptional regulation was investigated in parallel by microarray analysis in the same conditions. MeJA- and HDA6-dependent histone modifications on genes for specialized metabolism; linolenic acid and phenylpropanoid pathways; and abiotic and biotic stress responses were identified. H4ac and H3K27me3 enrichment also differentially affects JAs and HDA6-mediated genome integrity and gene regulatory networks, substantiating the role of HDA6 interacting with specific families of transposable elements in planta and highlighting further specificity of action as well as novel targets of HDA6 in the context of JA signalling for abiotic and biotic stress responses. CONCLUSIONS The findings demonstrate functional overlap for MeJA and HDA6 in tuning plant developmental plasticity and response to stress at the histone modification level. MeJA and HDA6, nonetheless, maintain distinct activities on histone modifications to modulate genetic variability and to allow adaptation to environmental challenges.

Abstract
Establishment of the interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral state provides a crucial initial line of defense against viral infection. Numerous genes that contribute to this antiviral state remain to be identified. Using a loss-of-function strategy, we screened an original library of 1156 siRNAs targeting 386 individual curated human genes in stimulated microglial cells infected with Zika virus (ZIKV), an emerging RNA virus that belongs to the flavivirus genus. The screen recovered twenty-one potential host proteins that modulate ZIKV replication in an IFN-dependent manner, including the previously known IFITM3 and LY6E. Further characterization contributed to delineate the spectrum of action of these genes towards other pathogenic RNA viruses, including Hepatitis C virus and SARS-CoV-2. Our data revealed that APOL3 acts as a proviral factor for ZIKV and several other related and unrelated RNA viruses. In addition, we showed that MTA2, a chromatin remodeling factor, possesses potent flavivirus-specific antiviral functions induced by IFN. Our work identified previously unrecognized genes that modulate the replication of RNA viruses in an IFN-dependent manner, opening new perspectives to target weakness points in the life cycle of these viruses.

Abstract
Ethylene response factors (ERFs) are downstream components of ethylene-signaling pathways known to play critical roles in ethylene-controlled climacteric fruit ripening, yet little is known about the molecular mechanism underlying their mode of action. Here, we demonstrate that SlERF.F12, a member of the ERF.F subfamily containing Ethylene-responsive element-binding factor-associated Amphiphilic Repression (EAR) motifs, negatively regulates the onset of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening by recruiting the co-repressor TOPLESS 2 (TPL2) and the histone deacetylases (HDAs) HDA1/HDA3 to repress the transcription of ripening-related genes. The SlERF.F12-mediated transcriptional repression of key ripening-related genes 1-AMINO-CYCLOPROPANE-1-CARBOXYLATE SYNTHASE 2 (ACS2), ACS4, POLYGALACTURONASE 2a, and PECTATE LYASE is dependent on the presence of its C-terminal EAR motif. We show that SlERF.F12 interacts with the co-repressor TPL2 via the C-terminal EAR motif and recruits HDAs SlHDA1 and SlHDA3 to form a tripartite complex in vivo that actively represses transcription of ripening genes by decreasing the level of the permissive histone acetylation marks H3K9Ac and H3K27Ac at their promoter regions. These findings provide new insights into the ripening regulatory network and uncover a direct link between repressor ERFs and histone modifiers in modulating the transition to ripening of climacteric fruit.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase enzymes participate in the regulation of many aspects of plant development. However, the genome-level targets of histone deacetylation during apple (Malus domestica) fruit development have not been resolved in detail, and the mechanisms of regulation of such a process are unknown. We previously showed that the complex of ethylene response factor 4 (MdERF4) and the TOPLESS co-repressor (MdTPL4; MdERF4-MdTPL4) is constitutively active during apple fruit development (Hu et al., 2020), but whether this transcriptional repression complex is coupled to chromatin modification is unknown. Here, we show that a histone deacetylase (MdHDA19) is recruited to the MdERF4-MdTPL4 complex, thereby impacting fruit ethylene biosynthesis. Transient suppression of MdHDA19 expression promoted fruit ripening and ethylene production. To identify potential downstream target genes regulated by MdHDA19, we conducted chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing of H3K9 and ChIP-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays. We found that MdHDA19 affects ethylene production by facilitating H3K9 deacetylation and forms a complex with MdERF4-MdTPL4 to directly repress MdACS3a expression by decreasing the degree of acetylation. We demonstrate that an early-maturing-specific acetylation H3K9ac peak in MdACS3a and expression of MdACS3a were specifically up-regulated in fruit of an early-maturing, but not a late-maturing, cultivar. We provide evidence that a C-to-G mutation in the ethylene-responsive element binding factor-associated amphiphilic repression motif of MdERF4 reduces the repression of MdACS3a by the MdERF4-MdTPL4-MdHDA19 complex. Taken together, our results reveal that the MdERF4-MdTPL-MdHDA19 repressor complex participates in the epigenetic regulation of apple fruit ripening.

Abstract
Background Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) plays an important role in the development and progression of a variety of cancers, but its regulatory mechanism in acute myeloid leukemia (LAML) is not entirely understood. Methods We analyzed the expression of HDAC3 in normal and cancerous tissues using Oncomine, UALCAN, and GEO databases. Changes of the HDAC3 gene were analyzed by cBioPortal. The genes coexpressed with HDAC3 were analyzed by WebGestalt, and the predicted signaling pathways in KEGG were discussed. Results We discovered that the expression of HDAC3 was elevated in some types of acute myeloid leukemia. The HDAC3 gene has a strong positive correlation with SLC25A5, NDUFA2, Cox4I1, and EIF3K, which regulate cell growth and development. HDAC3 transcription is higher in patients with FLT3 mutation than in healthy people. HDAC3 can be directly involved in regulating the thyroid hormone signaling pathway. MEF2D is directly involved in the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, and the HDAC3 gene has a strong synergistic relationship with MEF2D. HDAC3 is indirectly involved in the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, thereby indirectly regulating the expression levels of p53 and p21 genes in patients with LAML. Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) database analysis revealed that the application of the HDAC3 inhibitor can inhibit the proliferation of leukemia cells. Conclusions Therefore, our data suggest that HDAC3 may be a possible therapeutic target for acute myeloid leukemia.

Abstract
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) has a remarkable regenerative capacity in comparison to the central nervous system (CNS), a phenomenon that is impaired during ageing. The ability of PNS axons to regenerate after injury is due to Schwann cells (SC) being reprogrammed into a repair phenotype called Repair Schwann cells. These repair SCs are crucial for supporting axonal growth after injury, myelin degradation in a process known as myelinophagy, neurotropic factor secretion, and axonal growth guidance through the formation of Büngner bands. After regeneration, repair SCs can remyelinate newly regenerated axons and support nonmyelinated axons. Increasing evidence points to an epigenetic component in the regulation of repair SC gene expression changes, which is necessary for SC reprogramming and regeneration. One of these epigenetic regulations is histone acetylation by histone acetyl transferases (HATs) or histone deacetylation by histone deacetylases (HDACs). In this review, we have focused particularly on three HDAC classes (I, II, and IV) that are Zn2+-dependent deacetylases. These HDACs are important in repair SC biology and remyelination after PNS injury. Another key aspect explored in this review is HDAC genetic compensation in SCs and novel HDAC inhibitors that are being studied to improve nerve regeneration.

Abstract
The SET3 complex (SET3C) is a seven-subunit histone deacetylase complex that is capable of transcriptional regulation. Methylated histone 3 marks recruit SET3C to the nucleosome, and the SET3C catalytic subunits deacetylate the histone 3 and 4 tails. There is very limited structural knowledge of the SET3C subunits, with most subunits having unknown structures or functions. Here, a catalytically active SET3 complex was endogenously purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and utilized for negative-stain electron microscopy (EM) to determine an apo model for the holo complex. The negative-stain EM 3D model revealed a three-lobe architecture, with each lobe extending from a central point.

Abstract
Histone acetylation is one of the epigenetic modifications. Histone acetylation, which is catalyzed by histone acetyltransferases and negatively regulated by histone deacetylases, plays an important role in a variety of cellular physiological and pathophysiological processes. Recent studies have shown that histone deacetylases are involved in a variety of pathophysiological responses to acute kidney injury, such as apoptosis, dedifferentiation, proliferation and regeneration. This article reviews the role and underlying mechanism of histone deacetylases in acute kidney injury induced by ischemia reperfusion, nephrotoxicants, sepsis and rhabdomyolysis.

Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a major health problem worldwide. The lack of efficacy of existing therapies for AD is because of diagnosis at late stages of the disease, limited knowledge of biomarkers, and molecular mechanisms of AD pathology, as well as conventional drugs that are focused on symptomatic rather than mechanistic features of the disease. The connection between epigenetics and AD, however, may be useful for the development of novel therapeutics or diagnostic biomarkers for AD. The aim of this study was to investigate a pathogenic role for epigenetics and other biomarkers in the male APP/BIN1/COPS5 triple-transgenic (3xTg) mouse model of AD. In the APP/BIN1/COPS5 3xTg-AD mouse hippocampus, sirtuin expression and activity decreased, HDAC3 expression and activity increased, PSEN1 mRNA levels were unchanged, PSEN2 and APOE expression was reduced, and levels of the pro-inflammatory marker IL-6 increased; levels of pro-inflammatory COX-2 and TNFα and apoptotic (NOS3) markers increased slightly, but these were non-significant. In fixed mouse-brain slices, immunoreactivity for CD11b and β-amyloid immunostaining increased. APP/BIN1/COPS5 3xTg-AD mice are a suitable model for evaluating epigenetic changes in AD, the discovery of new epigenetic-related biomarkers for AD diagnosis, and new epidrugs for the treatment of this neurodegenerative disease.

Abstract
Microduplication of the human 16p11.2 gene locus is associated with a range of neurodevelopmental outcomes, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Mice carrying heterozygous 16p11.2 duplication (16p11.2dp/+) display social deficits, which is attributable to impaired GABAergic synaptic function in prefrontal cortex (PFC) driven by downregulation of Npas4, an activity-dependent transcription factor that regulates GABA synapse formation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the diminished transcription of Npas4 in 16p11.2 duplication remain unknown. Npas4 is one of the target genes regulated by histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5), an epigenetic enzyme repressing gene expression via removal of transcription-permissive acetyl groups from histones. Here we report that HDAC5 expression is elevated and histone acetylation is reduced at the Npas4 promoter in PFC of 16p11.2dp/+ mice. Treatment with the HDAC5 inhibitor LMK235 normalizes histone acetylation, restores GABAergic signaling in PFC, and significantly improves social preference in 16p11.2dp/+ mice. These findings suggest that HDAC5 inhibition is a promising therapeutic avenue to alleviate genetic, synaptic and behavioral deficits in 16p11.2 duplication conditions.

Abstract
MULTICOPY SUPPRESSOR OF IRA1 (MSI1) is a conserved subunit of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), which mediates gene silencing by histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27Me3). Here, we demonstrated that MSI1 interacts with the RPD3-like histone deacetylase HDA6 both in vitro and in vivo. MSI1 and HDA6 are involved in flowering and repress the expression of FLC, MAF4, and MAF5 by removing H3K9 acetylation but adding H3K27Me3. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis showed that HDA6 and MSI1 interdependently bind to the chromatin of FLC, MAF4, and MAF5. Furthermore, H3K9 deacetylation mediated by HDA6 is dependent on MSI1, while H3K27Me3 mediated by PRC2 containing MSI1 is also dependent on HDA6. Taken together, these data indicate that MSI1 and HDA6 act interdependently to repress the expression of FLC, MAF4, and MAF5 through histone modifications. Our findings reveal that the HDA6-MSI1 module mediates the interaction between histone H3 deacetylation and H3K27Me3 to repress gene expression involved in flowering time control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cigarette smoking is an established risk factor for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In this project, we investigated the effect of smoking and the role of histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) in PDAC invasion and metastasis. METHODS Cells were treated with 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone and cigarette smoke extract and the mRNA levels of HDACs were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Invasion was measured using the Matrigel Invasion Assay. Syngeneic PDAC mice were treated with 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone and metastasis measured. Human PDAC primary and metastatic tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Levels of HDAC4 mRNA were increased by smoking. Smoking compounds significantly promoted invasion of cancer cells and promoted metastasis of PDAC cells to different organs, including the liver and the lung, whereas inhibition of HDAC4 prevented this effect. The effect of HDAC4 inhibition on preventing smoking-induced metastasis was greater in the liver compared with the lung. We found that HDAC4 is highly expressed in primary and metastatic PDAC tumors. CONCLUSIONS We found that HDAC4 is the only HDAC induced by smoking among all HDACs analyzed. We found that smoking promotes invasion and metastasis of PDAC cells through a mechanism that involves HDAC4 and that HDAC4 is a promising target for preventing PDAC metastasis.

Abstract
Rationale: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease with a dismal 5-year survival less than 10%. Most patients with PDAC exhibit poor response to single-agent immunotherapy. Multimodal therapies targeting mechanisms of resistance to immunotherapy are urgently needed. We found that the class IIa histone deacetylase (HDAC) member, HDAC5 is downregulated in multiple solid tumors and its level were associated with favorable prognosis in PDAC patients. Upregulated genes in patients harboring HDAC5 deletions were enriched in adaptive immune responses and lymphocyte-mediated immunity in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) pancreatic cancer dataset. Methods: Tissue microarray of pancreatic cancer were used to analysis the correlation between HDAC5 and PD-L1. RNA-seq, transcription factor motif analysis, drug screening and molecular biology assays were performed to identify the mechanism of HDAC5's repression on PD-L1. Allografts of pancreatic cancer in mouse were applied to test the efficiency of HDAC5 inhibition and anti-PD1 co-treatment. Results: HDAC5 regulated PD-L1 expression by directly interacting with NF-κB p65; this interaction was suppressed by p65 phosphorylation at serine-311. Additionally, HDAC5 diminished p65 acetylation at lysine-310, which is essential for the transcriptional activity of p65. Importantly, we demonstrated that HDAC5 silencing or inhibition sensitized PDAC tumors to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy in syngeneic mouse model and KPC mouse derived PDAC model. Conclusion: Our findings revealed a previously unknown role of HDAC5 in regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway and antitumor immune responses. These findings provide a strong rationale for augment the antitumor effects of ICB in immunotherapy-resistant PDAC by inhibiting HDAC5.

Abstract
The class IIa histone deacetylases (HDACs) have pivotal roles in the development of different tissues. Of this family, Schwann cells express Hdac4, 5, and 7 but not Hdac9. Here, we show that a transcription factor regulated genetic compensatory mechanism within this family of proteins, blocks negative regulators of myelination ensuring peripheral nerve developmental myelination and remyelination after injury. Thus, when Hdac4 and 5 are knocked-out from Schwann cells in mice, a JUN-dependent mechanism induces the compensatory overexpression of Hdac7 permitting, although with a delay, the formation of the myelin sheath. When Hdac4, 5, and 7 are simultaneously removed, the myocyte-specific enhancer-factor d (MEF2D) binds to the promoter and induces the de novo expression of Hdac9, and although several melanocytic lineage genes are misexpressed and Remak bundle structure is disrupted, myelination proceeds after a long delay. Thus, our data unveil a finely tuned compensatory mechanism within the class IIa Hdac family, coordinated by distinct transcription factors, that guarantees the ability of Schwann cells to myelinate during development and remyelinate after nerve injury.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising approach to combat immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) for improved cancer treatment. FDA approval for the clinical use of programmed death receptor 1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors revolutionized T cell-based immunotherapy. Although only a few cancer patients respond to this treatment due to several factors including the accumulation of immunosuppressive cells in the TME. Several immunosuppressive cells within the TME such as regulatory T cells, myeloid cells, and cancer-associated fibroblast inhibit the activation and function of T cells to promote tumor progression. The roles of epigenetic modifiers such as histone deacetylase (HDAC) in cancer have long been investigated but little is known about their impact on immune cells. Recent studies showed inhibiting HDAC expression on myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) promoted their differentiation to less suppressive cells and reduced their immunosuppressive effect in the TME. HDAC inhibitors upregulated PD-1 or PD-L1 expression level on tumor or immune cells sensitizing tumor-bearing mice to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies. Herein we discuss how inhibiting HDAC expression on MDSCs could circumvent drawbacks to immune checkpoint inhibitors and improve cancer immunotherapy. Furthermore, we highlighted current challenges and future perspectives of HDAC inhibitors in regulating MDSCs function for effective cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Cold storage/rewarming is an inevitable process for kidney transplantation from deceased donors, which correlates closely with renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and the occurrence of delayed graft function. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) are important epigenetic regulators, but their involvement in cold storage/rewarming injury in kidney transplantation is unclear. In the present study, we showed a dynamic change of HDAC3 in a mouse model of kidney cold storage followed by transplantation. We then demonstrated that the selective HDAC3 inhibitor RGFP966 could reduce acute tubular injury and cell death after prolonged cold storage with transplantation. RGFP966 also improved renal function, kidney repair and tubular integrity when the transplanted kidney became the sole life-supporting graft in the recipient mouse. In vitro, cold storage of proximal tubular cells followed by rewarming induced remarkable cell death, which was suppressed by RGFP966 or knockdown of HDAC3 with shRNA. Inhibition of HDAC3 decreased the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis and preserved mitochondrial membrane potential. Collectively, HDAC3 plays a pathogenic role in cold storage/rewarming injury in kidney transplantation, and its inhibition may be a therapeutic option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play an important role in the regulation of gene expression, which is indispensable in plant growth, development, and responses to environmental stresses. In Arabidopsis and rice, the molecular functions of HDACs have been well-described. However, systematic analysis of the HDAC gene family and gene expression in response to biotic and abiotic stresses has not been reported for sorghum. RESULTS We conducted a systematic analysis of the sorghum HDAC gene family and identified 19 SbHDACs mainly distributed on eight chromosomes. Phylogenetic tree analysis of SbHDACs showed that the gene family was divided into three subfamilies: RPD3/HDA1, SIR2, and HD2. Tissue-specific expression results showed that SbHDACs displayed different expression patterns in different tissues, indicating that these genes may perform different functions in growth and development. The expression pattern of SbHDACs under different stresses (high and low temperature, drought, osmotic and salt) and pathogen-associated molecular model (PAMPs) elf18, chitin, and flg22) indicated that SbHDAC genes may participate in adversity responses and biological stress defenses. Overexpression of SbHDA1, SbHDA3, SbHDT2 and SbSRT2 in Escherichia coli promoted the growth of recombinant cells under abiotic stress. Interestingly, we also showed that the sorghum acetylation level was enhanced when plants were under cold, heat, drought, osmotic and salt stresses. The findings will help us to understand the HDAC gene family in sorghum, and illuminate the molecular mechanism of the responses to abiotic and biotic stresses. CONCLUSION We have identified and classified 19 HDAC genes in sorghum. Our data provides insights into the evolution of the HDAC gene family and further support the hypothesis that these genes are important for the plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Abstract
Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) is an emerging transcriptional co-regulator and was found to be aberrantly expressed in different types of cancers. MTA1 has been reported to regulate multiple cancer-related signalling pathways leading to tumour progression and metastasis. Recently, MTA1 was also implicated in cancer metabolism, where it was found to regulate the 'Warburg effect' to drive breast cancer cell invasion. Overall, the functional dynamism of MTA1 can be attributed to its dual co-regulatory effects in regulating a diverse array of target genes involved in cell proliferation, DNA damage repair, angiogenesis, invasion, migration, metastasis, and metabolism in different types of cancers. In this review, we have attempted to provide a brief summary of MTA1 as a modulator of the hallmarks of cancer.

Abstract
The accurate repair of genomic damage mediated by ionizing radiation (IR), chemo- or radiomimetic drugs, or other exogenous agents, is necessary for maintenance of genome integrity, preservation of cellular viability and prevention of oncogenic transformation. Eukaryotes have conserved mechanisms designed to perceive and repair the damaged DNA quite efficiently. Among the different types of DNA damage, double strand breaks (DSB) are the most detrimental. The cellular DNA DSB response is a hierarchical signaling network that integrates damage sensing and repair with chromatin structural changes that involve a range of pre-existing and induced covalent modifications. Recent studies have revealed that pre-existing histone modifications are important contributors within this signaling/repair network. This chapter discusses the role of a critical histone acetyl transferase (HAT) known as MOF (males absent on the first) and the histone deacetylases (HDACs) Sirtuins on histone H4K16 acetylation (H4K16ac) and DNA damage repair. We also discuss the role of this important histone modification in light of metabolic rewiring and its role in regulating human pathophysiologic states.

Abstract
Epidemiological investigations have shown that individuals treated with dexamethasone during pregnancy have an increased risk of osteoporosis after birth. Our studies reported that peak bone mass was decreased in the prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) offspring before chronic stress, while further decrease was observed after chronic stress. Simultaneously, increase of bone local active corticosterone was observed in the PDE offspring, while further increase was also observed after chronic stress. Moreover, the histone H3 lysine 9 acetylation (H3K9ac) level of 11-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11β-HSD2) and its expression in bone tissue of PDE offspring rats remained lower than the control before and after birth. Injection of 11β-HSD2 overexpression lentivirus into the bone marrow cavity could partially alleviate the accumulation of bone local active corticosterone and bone loss induced by PDE. In vitro, dexamethasone inhibited the expression of 11β-HSD2 and aggravated the inhibitory effect of corticosterone on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Overexpression of 11β-HSD2 partially alleviated the inhibitory effect of corticosterone. Moreover, dexamethasone promoted the nuclear translocation of glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which resulted in the stimulation of 11β-HSD2 expression due to the binding of GR to the 11β-HSD2 promoter region directly, as well as increasing H3K9ac level in the 11β-HSD2 promoter region by recruiting histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11). Our results indicated that low expression of 11β-HSD2 in bone tissue is an important mediator for the high susceptibility to osteoporosis in PDE adult offspring.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is the seventh leading cause of cancer death worldwide, with a low 5-year survival rate. Novel agents are urgently necessary to treat the main pathological type, known as pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDAC). The dysregulation of histone deacetylases (HDACs) has been identified in association with PDAC, which can be more easily targeted by small molecular inhibitors than gene mutations and may represent a therapeutic breakthrough for PDAC. However, the contributions of HDACs to PDAC remain controversial, and pharmacokinetic challenges have limited the application of HDAC inhibitors (HDACis) in PDAC. This review summarizes the mechanisms associated with success and failure of HDACis in PDAC and discusses the recent progress made in HDACi development and application, such as combination therapies designed to enhance efficacy. More precise strategies involving HDACis might eventually improve the outcomes of PDAC treatment.

Abstract
Protein acetylation is a reversible post-translational modification, and is involved in many biological processes in cells, such as transcriptional regulation, DNA damage repair, and energy metabolism, which is an important molecular event and is associated with a wide range of diseases such as cancers. Protein acetylation is dynamically regulated by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs) in homeostasis. The abnormal acetylation level might lead to the occurrence and deterioration of a cancer, and is closely related to various pathophysiological characteristics of a cancer, such as malignant phenotypes, and promotes cancer cells to adapt to tumor microenvironment. Therapeutic modalities targeting protein acetylation are a potential therapeutic strategy. This article discussed the roles of protein acetylation in tumor pathology and therapeutic drugs targeting protein acetylation, which offers the contributions of protein acetylation in clarification of carcinogenesis, and discovery of therapeutic drugs for cancers, and lays the foundation for precision medicine in oncology.

Abstract
We describe an infant female with a syndromic neurodevelopmental clinical phenotype and increased chromosome instability as cellular phenotype. Genotype characterization revealed heterozygous variants in genes directly or indirectly linked to DNA repair: a de novo X-linked HDAC8 pathogenic variant, a paternally inherited FANCG pathogenic variant and a maternally inherited BRCA2 variant of uncertain significance. The full spectrum of the phenotype cannot be explained by any of the heterozygous variants on their own; thus, a synergic contribution is proposed. Complementation studies showed that the FANCG gene from the Fanconi Anaemia/BRCA (FA/BRCA) DNA repair pathway was impaired, indicating that the variant in FANCG contributes to the cellular phenotype. The patient’s chromosome instability represents the first report where heterozygous variant(s) in the FA/BRCA pathway are implicated in the cellular phenotype. We propose that a multigenic contribution of heterozygous variants in HDAC8 and the FA/BRCA pathway might have a role in the phenotype of this neurodevelopmental disorder. The importance of these findings may have repercussion in the clinical management of other cases with a similar synergic contribution of heterozygous variants, allowing the establishment of new genotype–phenotype correlations and motivating the biochemical study of the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Molecular signal transduction networks which conduct transcription at the G1 to S phase transition of the eukaryotic cell division cycle have been identified in diverse taxa from mammals to baker´s yeast with analogous functional organization. However, regarding some network components, such as the transcriptional regulators STB1 and WHI5, only few orthologs exist which are confined to individual Saccharomycotina species. While Whi5 has been characterized as yeast analog of human Rb protein, in the particular case of Stb1 (Sin three binding protein 1) identification of functional analogs emerges as difficult because to date its exact functionality still remains obscured. By aiming to resolve Stb1´s enigmatic role this Perspectives article especially surveys works covering relations between Cyclin/CDKs, the heteromeric transcription factor complexes SBF (Swi4/Swi6) and MBF (Mbp1/Swi6), as well as additional coregulators (Whi5, Sin3, Rpd3, Nrm1) which are collectively associated with the orderly transcription at 'Start' of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle. In this context, interaction capacities of the Sin3-scaffold protein are widely surveyed because its four PAH domains (Paired Amphiphatic Helix) represent a 'recruitment-code' for gene-specific targeting of repressive histone deacetylase activity (Rpd3) via different transcription factors. Here Stb1 plays a role in Sin3´s action on transcription at the G1/S-boundary. Through bioinformatic analyses a potential Sin3-interaction domain (SID) was detected in Stb1, and beyond that, connections within the G1/S-regulatory network are discussed in structural and evolutionary context thereby providing conceptual perspectives.

Abstract
Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) is frequently overexpressed in cancer, but the role of MELK in cancer is still poorly understood. MELK was shown to have roles in many cancer-associated processes including tumor growth, chemotherapy resistance, and tumor recurrence. To determine whether the frequent overexpression of MELK can be exploited in therapy, we performed a high-throughput screen using a library of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants to identify genes whose functions become essential when MELK is overexpressed. We identified two such genes: LAG2 and HDA3. LAG2 encodes an inhibitor of the Skp, Cullin, F-box containing (SCF) ubiquitin-ligase complex, while HDA3 encodes a subunit of the HDA1 histone deacetylase complex. We find that one of these synthetic lethal interactions is conserved in mammalian cells, as inhibition of a human homolog of HDA3 (Histone Deacetylase 4, HDAC4) is synthetically toxic in MELK overexpression cells. Altogether, our work identified a novel potential drug target for tumors that overexpress MELK.

Abstract
Salicylic acid (SA) plays an important role for plant immunity, especially resistance against biotrophic pathogens. SA quickly accumulates after pathogen attack to activate downstream immunity events and is normally associated with a tradeoff in plant growth. Therefore, the SA level in plants has to be strictly controlled when pathogens are absent, but how this occurs is not well understood. Previously we found that in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), HISTONE DEACETYLASE 6 (HDA6), a negative regulator of gene expression, plays an essential role in plant immunity since its mutation allele shining 5 (shi5) exhibits autoimmune phenotypes. Here we report that this role is mainly through suppression of SA biosynthesis: first, the autoimmune phenotypes and higher resistance to Pst DC3000 of shi5 mutants depended on SA; second, SA significantly accumulated in shi5 mutants; third, HDA6 repressed SA biosynthesis by directly controlling the expression of CALMODULIN BINDING PROTEIN 60g (CBP60g) and SYSTEMIC ACQUIRED RESISTANCE DEFICIENT 1 (SARD1). HDA6 bound to the chromatin of CBP60g and SARD1 promoter regions, and histone H3 acetylation was highly enriched within these regions. Furthermore, the transcriptome of shi5 mutants mimicked that of plants treated with exogenous SA or attacked by pathogens. All these data suggest that HDA6 is vital for plants in finely controlling the SA level to regulate plant immunity.

Abstract
After antigenic activation, quiescent naive CD4+ T cells alter their metabolism to proliferate. This metabolic shift increases production of nucleotides, amino acids, fatty acids, and sterols. Here, we show that histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is critical for activation of murine peripheral CD4+ T cells. HDAC3-deficient CD4+ T cells failed to proliferate and blast after in vitro TCR/CD28 stimulation. Upon T-cell activation, genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis are upregulated while genes that promote cholesterol efflux are repressed. HDAC3-deficient CD4+ T cells had reduced levels of cellular cholesterol both before and after activation. HDAC3-deficient cells upregulate cholesterol synthesis appropriately after activation, but fail to repress cholesterol efflux; notably, they overexpress cholesterol efflux transporters ABCA1 and ABCG1. Repression of these genes is the primary function for HDAC3 in peripheral CD4+ T cells, as addition of exogenous cholesterol restored proliferative capacity. Collectively, these findings demonstrate HDAC3 is essential during CD4+ T-cell activation to repress cholesterol efflux.

Abstract
Nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs) at gene promoters support initiation of RNA polymerase II transcription. Interestingly, transcription often initiates in both directions, resulting in an mRNA and a divergent non-coding (DNC) transcript of unclear purpose. Here, we characterized the genetic architecture and molecular mechanism of DNC transcription in budding yeast. Using high-throughput reverse genetic screens based on quantitative single-cell fluorescence measurements, we identified the Hda1 histone deacetylase complex (Hda1C) as a repressor of DNC transcription. Nascent transcription profiling showed a genome-wide role of Hda1C in repression of DNC transcription. Live-cell imaging of transcription revealed that mutations in the Hda3 subunit increased the frequency of DNC transcription. Hda1C contributed to decreased acetylation of histone H3 in DNC transcription regions, supporting DNC transcription repression by histone deacetylation. Our data support the interpretation that DNC transcription results as a consequence of the NDR-based architecture of eukaryotic promoters, but that it is governed by locus-specific repression to maintain genome fidelity.

Abstract
Background Schistosoma mansoni histone deacetylase 8 (SmHDAC8) has elicited considerable interest as a target for drug discovery. Invalidation of its transcripts by RNAi leads to impaired survival of the worms in infected mice and its inhibition causes cell apoptosis and death. To determine why it is a promising therapeutic target the study of the currently unknown cellular signaling pathways involving this enzyme is essential. Protein partners of SmHDAC8 were previously identified by yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) cDNA library screening and by mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. Among these partners we characterized SmRho1, the schistosome orthologue of human RhoA GTPase, which is involved in the regulation of the cytoskeleton. In this work, we validated the interaction between SmHDAC8 and SmRho1 and explored the role of the lysine deacetylase in cytoskeletal regulation. Methodology/principal findings We characterized two isoforms of SmRho1, SmRho1.1 and SmRho1.2. Co- immunoprecipitation (Co-IP)/Mass Spectrometry (MS) analysis identified SmRho1 partner proteins and we used two heterologous expression systems (Y2H assay and Xenopus laevis oocytes) to study interactions between SmHDAC8 and SmRho1 isoforms. To confirm SmHDAC8 and SmRho1 interaction in adult worms and schistosomula, we performed Co-IP experiments and additionally demonstrated SmRho1 acetylation using a Nano LC-MS/MS approach. A major impact of SmHDAC8 in cytoskeleton organization was documented by treating adult worms and schistosomula with a selective SmHDAC8 inhibitor or using RNAi followed by confocal microscopy. Conclusions/significance Our results suggest that SmHDAC8 is involved in cytoskeleton organization via its interaction with the SmRho1.1 isoform. The SmRho1.2 isoform failed to interact with SmHDAC8, but did specifically interact with SmDia suggesting the existence of two distinct signaling pathways regulating S. mansoni cytoskeleton organization via the two SmRho1 isoforms. A specific interaction between SmHDAC8 and the C-terminal moiety of SmRho1.1 was demonstrated, and we showed that SmRho1 is acetylated on K136. SmHDAC8 inhibition or knockdown using RNAi caused extensive disruption of schistosomula actin cytoskeleton. Schistosoma mansoni is the major parasitic platyhelminth species causing intestinal schistosomiasis. Currently one drug, praziquantel, is the treatment of choice but its use in mass treatment programs means that the development of resistance is likely and renders imperative the development of new therapeutic agents. As new potential targets we have focused on lysine deacetylases, and in particular S. mansoni histone deacetylase 8 (SmHDAC8). Previous studies showed that reduction in the level of transcripts of SmHDAC8 by RNAi led to the impaired survival of the worms after the infection of mice. The analysis of the 3D structure of SmHDAC8 by X-ray crystallography showed that the catalytic domain structure diverges significantly from that of human HDAC8 and this was exploited to develop novel potential anti-schistosomal drugs. The biological roles of SmHDAC8 are unknown. For this reason, we previously characterized its protein binding partners and identified the schistosome orthologue of the human RhoA GTPase, suggesting the involvement of SmHDAC8 in the modulation of cytoskeleton organization. Here we investigated the interaction between SmHDAC8 and SmRho1 and identified two SmRho1 isoforms (SmRho1.1 and SmRho1.2). Our study showed that SmHDAC8 is involved in schistosome cytoskeleton organization.
