Targeting the chromatin structural changes of antitumor immunity. J Pharm Anal 2024; 14:100905. [PMID: 38665224 PMCID: PMC11043877 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpha.2023.11.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Epigenomic imbalance drives abnormal transcriptional processes, promoting the onset and progression of cancer. Although defective gene regulation generally affects carcinogenesis and tumor suppression networks, tumor immunogenicity and immune cells involved in antitumor responses may also be affected by epigenomic changes, which may have significant implications for the development and application of epigenetic therapy, cancer immunotherapy, and their combinations. Herein, we focus on the impact of epigenetic regulation on tumor immune cell function and the role of key abnormal epigenetic processes, DNA methylation, histone post-translational modification, and chromatin structure in tumor immunogenicity, and introduce these epigenetic research methods. We emphasize the value of small-molecule inhibitors of epigenetic modulators in enhancing antitumor immune responses and discuss the challenges of developing treatment plans that combine epigenetic therapy and immunotherapy through the complex interaction between cancer epigenetics and cancer immunology.

[PMID: 34209077 PMCID: PMC8307146 DOI: 10.3390/nano11071725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2021] [Revised: 06/26/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Bottom-up micropatterning or nanopatterning can be viewed as the localization of target molecules to the desired area of a surface. A majority of these processes rely on the physical adsorption of ink-like molecules to the paper-like surface, resulting in unstable immobilization of the target molecules owing to their noncovalent linkage to the surface. Herein, successive single nick-sealing facilitated the covalent immobilization of individual DNA molecules at defined positions on a dendron-coated silicon surface using atomic force microscopy. The covalently-patterned ssDNA was visualized when the streptavidin-coated gold nanoparticles bound to the biotinylated DNA. The successive covalent positioning of the target DNA under ambient conditions may facilitate the bottom-up construction of DNA-based durable nanostructures, nanorobots, or memory system.
