Abstract
Pulmonary disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension are the leading cause of deaths. More importantly, lung diseases are on the rise and environmental factors induced epigenetic modifications are major players on this increased prevalence. It has been reported that dysregulation of genes involved in epigenetic regulation such as the histone deacetylase (HDACs) and histone acetyltransferase (HATs) play important role in lung health and pulmonary disease pathogenesis. Inflammation is an essential component of respiratory diseases. Injury and inflammation trigger release of extracellular vesicles that can act as epigenetic modifiers through transfer of epigenetic regulators such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), proteins and lipids, from one cell to another. The immune dysregulations caused by the cargo contents are important contributors of respiratory disease pathogenesis. N6 methylation of RNA is also emerging to be a critical mechanism of epigenetic alteration and upregulation of immune responses to environmental stressors. Epigenetic changes such as DNA methylation are stable and often long term and cause onset of chronic lung conditions. These epigenetic pathways are also being utilized for therapeutic intervention in several lung conditions.

Abstract
Epigenetic dysregulation is a common feature of a myriad of human diseases, particularly cancer. Defining the epigenetic defects associated with malignant tumors has become a focus of cancer research resulting in the gradual elucidation of cancer cell epigenetic regulation. In fact, most stages of tumor progression, including tumorigenesis, promotion, progression, and recurrence are accompanied by epigenetic alterations, some of which can be reversed by epigenetic drugs. The main objective of epigenetic therapy in the era of personalized precision medicine is to detect cancer biomarkers to improve risk assessment, diagnosis, and targeted treatment interventions. Rapid technological advancements streamlining the characterization of molecular epigenetic changes associated with cancers have propelled epigenetic drug research and development. This review summarizes the main mechanisms of epigenetic dysregulation and discusses past and present examples of epigenetic inhibitors in cancer diagnosis and treatment, with an emphasis on the development of epigenetic enzyme inhibitors or drugs. In the final part, the prospect of precise diagnosis and treatment is considered based on a better understanding of epigenetic abnormalities in cancer.

Abstract
In the family of histone-deacetylases, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) stands out. The cytoplasmic class IIb histone deacetylase (HDAC) family is essential for many cellular functions. It plays a crucial and debatable regulatory role in innate antiviral immunity. This review summarises the current state of our understanding of HDAC6's structure and function in light of the three mechanisms by which it controls DNA and RNA virus infection: cytoskeleton regulation, host innate immune response, and autophagy degradation of host or viral proteins. In addition, we summed up how HDAC6 inhibitors are used to treat a wide range of diseases, and how its upstream signaling plays a role in the antiviral mechanism. Together, the findings of this review highlight HDAC6's importance as a new therapeutic target in antiviral immunity, innate immune response, and some diseases, all of which offer promising new avenues for the development of drugs targeting the immune response.

Abstract
Prominin-1 (PROM1), also called CD133, is a penta-span transmembrane protein that is localized in membrane protrusions, such as microvilli and filopodia. It is known to be expressed in cancer stem cells and various progenitor cells of bone marrow, liver, kidney, and intestine. Accumulating evidence has revealed that PROM1 has multiple functions in various organs, such as eye, tooth, peripheral nerve, and liver, associating with various molecular protein partners. PROM1 regulates PKA-induced gluconeogenesis, TGFβ-induced fibrosis, and IL-6-induced regeneration in the liver, associating with Radixin, SMAD7, and GP130, respectively. In addition, PROM1 is necessary to maintain cancer stem cell properties by activating PI3K and β-Catenin. PROM1-deficienct mice also show distinct phenotypes in eyes, brain, peripheral nerves, and tooth. Here, we discuss recent findings of PROM1-mediated signal transduction.

Abstract
Gliomas are the most aggressive primary brain tumors. However, no significant improvement in survival has been achieved with the addition of temozolomide (TMZ) or radiation as initial therapy, although many clinical efforts have been carried out to target various signaling pathways or putative driver mutations. Here, we report that glycosyltransferase 8 domain containing 1 (GLT8D1), induced by HIF-1α under a hypoxic niche, significantly correlates with a higher grade of glioma, and a worse clinical outcome. Depletion of GLT8D1 inhibits self-renewal of glioma stem cell (GSC) in vitro and represses tumor growth in glioma mouse models. GLT8D1 knockdown promotes cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and cellular apoptosis with or without TMZ treatment. We reveal that GLT8D1 impedes CD133 degradation through the endosomal-lysosomal pathway by N-linked glycosylation and protein-protein interaction. Directly blocking the GLT8D1/CD133 complex formation by CD133N1~108 (referred to as FECD133), or inhibiting GLT8D1 expression by lercanidipine, suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signaling dependent tumorigenesis both in vitro and in patient-derived xenografts mouse model. Collectively, these findings offer mechanistic insights into how hypoxia promotes GLT8D1/CD133/Wnt/β-catenin signaling during glioma progression, and identify GLT8D1 as a potential therapeutic target in the future.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate gene expression through the epigenetic modification of chromatin structure. HDAC6, unlike many other HDACs, is present in the cytoplasm. Its deacetylates non-histone proteins and plays diverse roles in cancer cell initiation, proliferation, autophagy, and anti-cancer drug resistance. The development of HDAC6-specific inhibitors has been relatively successful. Mechanisms of HDAC6-promoted anti-cancer drug resistance, cancer cell proliferation, and autophagy are discussed. The relationship between autophagy and anti-cancer drug resistance is discussed. The effects of combination therapy, which includes HDAC6 inhibitors, on the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapeutics and immune checkpoint blockade are presented. A summary of clinical trials involving HDAC6-specific inhibitors is also presented. This review presents HDAC6 as a valuable target for developing anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
Patients diagnosed with metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM) have a poor survival prognosis. Unfortunately for this rare disease, there is no known cure and suitable therapeutic options are limited. HDAC6 inhibitors (HDAC6i) are currently in clinical trials for other cancers and show potential beneficial effects against tumor cell survival in vitro and in vivo. In MUM cells, HDAC6i show an anti-proliferative effect in vitro and in preclinical xenograft models. The use of HDAC6 inhibitors as a treatment option for MUM should be explored further. Therefore, this review discusses (1) what is known about HDAC6i in MUM and (2) whether HDAC6 inhibitors offer a potential therapeutic option for MUM.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) targeting drugs have entered the pharmacopoeia in the 2000s. However, some enigmatic phenotypes suggest off-target engagement. Here, we developed a quantitative chemical proteomics assay using immobilized HDAC inhibitors and mass spectrometry that we deployed to establish the target landscape of 53 drugs. The assay covers 9 of the 11 human zinc-dependent HDACs, questions the reported selectivity of some widely-used molecules, notably for HDAC6, and delineates how the composition of HDAC complexes influences drug potency. Unexpectedly, metallo-beta-lactamase domain-containing protein 2 (MBLAC2) featured as a frequent off-target of hydroxamate drugs. This poorly characterized palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase is inhibited by 24 HDAC inhibitors at low nM potency. MBLAC2 enzymatic inhibition and knock down led to the accumulation of extracellular vesicles. Given the importance of extracellular vesicle biology in neurological diseases and cancer, this HDAC-independent drug effect may qualify MBLAC2 as a target for drug discovery.

Abstract
Worldwide, cancer is the second leading cause of mortality after cardiovascular diseases. Among the numerous malignant tumors in human, digestive system cancers are the primary cause of morbidity and mortality. Acetylation and deacetylation are crucially involved in cancer occurrence and development; in addition, the deacetylation process is regulated by histone deacetylases (HDACs). Among the 18 human HDACs that have been reported, HDAC6 has been widely studied. There is upregulated HDAC6 expression in numerous types of tumor tissues and is closely associated with clinicopathological characteristics. Moreover, several HDAC6 inhibitors have been identified; furthermore, there has been extensive research on their ability to inhibit the growth of many tumors. This review summarizes the roles of HDAC6 in different primary digestive system malignancies.

Abstract
Different types of cells, such as endothelial cells, tumor-associated fibroblasts, pericytes, and immune cells, release extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the tumor microenvironment. The components of EVs include proteins, DNA, RNA, and microRNA. One of the most important functions of EVs is the transfer of aforementioned bioactive molecules, which in cancer cells may affect tumor growth, progression, angiogenesis, and metastatic spread. Furthermore, EVs affect the presentation of antigens to immune cells via the transfer of nucleic acids, peptides, and proteins to recipient cells. Recent studies have also explored the potential application of EVs in cancer treatment. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which EVs regulate melanoma development, progression, and their potentials to be applied in therapy. We initially describe vesicle components; discuss their effects on proliferation, anti-melanoma immunity, and drug resistance; and finally focus on the effects of EV-derived microRNAs on melanoma pathobiology. This work aims to facilitate our understanding of the influence of EVs on melanoma biology and initiate ideas for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are involved in the metastatic process, the resistance of many types of cancer to therapeutic treatments and consequently the onset of recurrences. The CSC concept therefore significantly extends our understanding of melanoma biology. More recently, melanoma stem cells (MSCs) have been described in melanoma as expressing specific biomarkers. These primitive melanoma cells are not only capable of self-renewal and differentiation plasticity, but may also confer virulence via immune evasion and multidrug resistance, and potentially, via vasculogenic mimicry and transition to migratory and metastasizing derivatives. This review will present the specific biomarkers of MSCs, including CD133, ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 5, CD271, CD20 and aldehyde dehydrogenase, which can regulate the transduction of tumor-related signals. These signal molecules can reversely act on tumor cells and regulate tumor angiogenesis, leading to the occurrence of melanoma metastasis. Targeting these specific biomarkers could inhibit the progression of melanoma and may help the development of novel therapeutic strategies for melanoma.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a heterogeneous group of membrane-limited vesicles and multi-signal messengers loaded with biomolecules. Exosomes and ectosomes are two different types of EVs generated by all cell types. Their formation depends on local microdomains assembled in endocytic membranes for exosomes and in the plasma membrane for ectosomes. Further, EV release is a fundamental process required for intercellular communication in both normal physiology and pathological conditions to transmit/exchange bioactive molecules to recipient cells and the extracellular environment. The unique structure and composition of EVs enable them to serve as natural nanocarriers, and their physicochemical properties and biological functions can be used to develop next-generation nano and precision medicine. Knowledge of the cellular processes that govern EVs biology and membrane trafficking is essential for their clinical applications. However, in this rapidly expanding field, much remains unknown regarding EV origin, biogenesis, cargo sorting, and secretion, as well as EV-based theranostic platform generation. Hence, we present a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in biogenesis, membrane trafficking, and functions of EVs, highlighting the impact of nanoparticles and oxidative stress on EVs biogenesis and release and finally emphasizing the role of EVs as nanotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
The recent introduction of the “precision medicine” concept in oncology pushed cancer research to focus on dynamic measurable biomarkers able to predict responses to novel anticancer therapies in order to improve clinical outcomes. Recently, the involvement of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in cancer pathophysiology has been described, and given their release from all cell types under specific stimuli, EVs have also been proposed as potential biomarkers in cancer. Among the techniques used to study EVs, flow cytometry has a high clinical potential. Here, we have applied a recently developed and simplified flow cytometry method for circulating EV enumeration, subtyping, and isolation from a large cohort of metastatic and locally advanced nonhaematological cancer patients (N = 106); samples from gender- and age-matched healthy volunteers were also analysed. A large spectrum of cancer-related markers was used to analyse differences in terms of peripheral blood circulating EV phenotypes between patients and healthy volunteers, as well as their correlation to clinical outcomes. Finally, EVs from patients and controls were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and their protein cargoes were analysed by proteomics. Results demonstrated that EV counts were significantly higher in cancer patients than in healthy volunteers, as previously reported. More interestingly, results also demonstrated that cancer patients presented higher concentrations of circulating CD31+ endothelial-derived and tumour cancer stem cell-derived CD133 + CD326- EVs, when compared to healthy volunteers. Furthermore, higher levels of CD133 + CD326− EVs showed a significant correlation with a poor overall survival. Additionally, proteomics analysis of EV cargoes demonstrated disparities in terms of protein content and function between circulating EVs in cancer patients and healthy controls. Overall, our data strongly suggest that blood circulating cancer stem cell-derived EVs may have a role as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in cancer.

Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the expression of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in colon cancer and its role in colon cancer cell growth and migration. Materials and methods: We detected the expression of HDAC6 in a colon cancer tissue chip using immunochemical staining, and analyzed the difference in HDAC6 expression between cancer and adjacent noncancerous tissues. Then, we explored the relationship between HDAC6 expression and patients’ clinicopathological characteristics and prognoses. In adidition, the role of HDAC6 in colon cancer cell growth and migration, as well as its potential related signal pathway, through HDAC6 knockdown was explored. Results: The immunochemical score of HDAC6 expression was higher in cancer tissue than in the adjacent noncancerous tissue (4.54 vs 3.08, P<0.005); similarly, as well as the rate of high HDAC6 expression was higher in cancer tissue than in the adjacent noncancerous tissue (71.1% vs 40.9%, P<0.001). Patients showing high HDAC6 expression had a shorter overall survival time. Additionally, Cox regression analysis showed that high HDAC6 expression was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis. HDAC6 knockdown decreased cell viability, colony formation, and number of migrated colon cancer cells (HCT116 and HT29); the expression of p-MEK, p-ERK, and p-AKT was also decreased, but had no influence on MEK, ERK, and AKT expression. Conclusion: HDAC6 is highly expressed in colon cancer and associated with a poor prognosis. HDAC6 knockdown inhibits colon cancer cell growth and migration, partly through the MAPK/ERK pathway.

Abstract
CD133 is a widely used cell surface marker of cancer stem cells that plays an important role in tumor initiation and metastasis. Increasing evidence shows that CD133 is secreted to the extracellular space. However, the underlying mechanisms of CD133 secretion remain largely unknown. In this study, we report that secreted CD133 has a complex-type N-glycosylation and is modified by beta1,6GlcNAc N-glycan. We found that inhibition of CD133 complex-type N-glycosylation by swainsonine does not affect the membrane localization of CD133, but significantly reduces CD133 secretion and promotes its accumulation in early endosomes. Moreover, swainsonine reduces CD133 secretion by reducing its mono-ubiquitination and inhibiting the interaction between CD133 and Tsg101. These findings reveal a new mechanism of glycosylation-dependent secretion of CD133.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-enclosed structures secreted by cells. In the past decade, EVs have attracted substantial attention as carriers of complex intercellular information. They have been implicated in a wide variety of biological processes in health and disease. They are also considered to hold promise for future diagnostics and therapy. EVs are characterized by a previously underappreciated heterogeneity. The heterogeneity and molecular complexity of EVs necessitates high-throughput analytical platforms for detailed analysis. Recently, mass spectrometry, next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics tools have enabled detailed proteomic, transcriptomic, glycomic, lipidomic, metabolomic, and genomic analyses of EVs. Here, we provide an overview of systems biology experiments performed in the field of EVs. Furthermore, we provide examples of how in silico systems biology approaches can be used to identify correlations between genes involved in EV biogenesis and human diseases. Using a knowledge fusion system, we investigated whether certain groups of proteins implicated in the biogenesis/release of EVs were associated with diseases and phenotypes. Furthermore, we investigated whether these proteins were enriched in publicly available transcriptomic datasets using gene set enrichment analysis methods. We found associations between key EV biogenesis proteins and numerous diseases, which further emphasizes the key role of EVs in human health and disease.

Abstract
Background ACY1215 is a selective histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitor, and can suppress tumor growth for many human cancers. However, its role in colon cancer and its impact on the chemotherapeutic effect of 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) are largely unknown. The aim of the present study is to explore the effect of ACY1215 on cell growth, migration, invasion and apoptosis, along with its impact on the chemotherapeutic effect of 5-Fu in HCT116 cells. Methods HCT116 cells were treated with ACY1215 with or without 5-Fu, and cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis were explored. Results The cell viability, colony formation number, wound closure rate, and migrated cell numbers of HCT116 cells significantly decreased, while the apoptotic cells significantly increased with the increased concentration of ACY1215 (P<0.05). The combination of ACY1215 and 5-Fu was more potent than either drug alone, as indicated by an increase of apoptotic cells, and by a decrease of cell viability, colony formation number, wound closure rate and migrated cell numbers. The expression of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinases (pMEK) and phosphorylated extracellular-signal regulated protein kinase (pERK) were decreased when HCT116 cells were cultured with ACY1215. Conclusions Selective HDAC6 inhibitor, ACY1215, could inhibit the cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and induce apoptosis of HCT116 colon cancer cells. Furthermore, ACY1215 may enhance the chemotherapeutic effect of 5-Fu in HCT116 cells.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cachexia is a frequent feature of chronic diseases. This syndrome includes loss of body weight, depletion of skeletal muscle mass and altered metabolic homeostasis. Acceleration of protein and energy metabolism, impaired myogenesis, and systemic inflammation contribute to cachexia. Its occurrence impinges on treatment tolerance and on the quality of life of the patient, however, no effective therapy is available yet. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on the use of histone deacetylase inhibitors as pharmacological tools to prevent or delay cachexia, with reference to muscle wasting. EXPERT OPINION Novel histone deacetylase inhibitors could be considered as exercise mimetics and this supports their use as a treatment for muscle-wasting associated diseases, such as cachexia. The ability of some of these inhibitors to modulate the release of extracellular vesicles from tumor cells is a potential tool for restricting the development of cancer-induced muscle protein depletion. There are few clinical trials that are testing histone deacetylase inhibitors as a treatment for cachexia; this reflects the lack of robust experimental evidence of effectiveness. The determination of the pathogenic mechanisms of muscle wasting and the identification of suitable histone deacetylase inhibitors that target such mechanisms are necessary.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles contain various cellular components that are involved in tumor growth, metastasis, and immune escape. Extracellular vesicles are classified into 2 groups, namely, exosomes and microvesicles (MV). Although the formation and roles of exosomes have been studied, the exact functions of MVs and mechanisms underlying MV release are not fully understood. We found that epidermal growth factor accelerates the release of MVs from the plasma membrane by inducing NF-κB activation and CD133 expression. The amount and sizes of budding MVs were found to be dependent on the expression level of CD133, which regulates the activities of the small guanosine 5'-triphosphatases RhoA and Rac1. CD133-containing MVs released from KRAS mutant colon cancer cells delivered KRAS mutant to adjacent nontumorigenic cells and activated KRAS downstream signaling. CD133-containing MVs were found to promote the migration and invasion of adjacent cells. CD133-containing MVs induced the development of chemoresistance by abolishing the inhibitory effects of anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) drugs on cell proliferation and motility in colon cancer. These results suggest that CD133 acts as a novel modulator in MV release and in oncoprotein trafficking. CD133 can serve as a therapeutic target for treatment of anti-EGFR drug-resistant colon cancer.-Kang, M., Kim, S., Ko, J.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle possesses a high ability to regenerate after an insult or in pathological conditions, relying on satellite cells, the skeletal muscle stem cells. Satellite cell behavior is tightly regulated by the surrounding microenvironment, which provides multiple signals derived from local cells and systemic factors. Among epigenetic mechanisms, histone deacetylation has been proved to affect muscle regeneration. Indeed, pan-histone deacetylase inhibitors were found to improve muscle regeneration, while deletion of histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) in satellite cells inhibits their proliferation and differentiation, leading to compromised muscle regeneration. In this study, we delineated the HDAC4 function in adult skeletal muscle, following injury, by using a tissue-specific null mouse line. We showed that HDAC4 is crucial for skeletal muscle regeneration by mediating soluble factors that influence muscle-derived cell proliferation and differentiation. These findings add new biological functions to HDAC4 in skeletal muscle that need considering when administering histone deacetylase inhibitors.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) is amplified, translocated or mutated in a number of different human cancer types, but most commonly in bladder cancers. We previously found that the accumulation of FGFR3 is dependent on histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6). Here we show that HDAC6 loss or inhibition reduces FGFR3 accumulation in cells made tumorigenic by ectopic expression of a mutant activated version of FGFR3 together with the MYC oncoprotein and in a bladder cancer cell line whose tumorigenicity is dependent on expression of a translocated version of FGFR3. In tumor xenoplant assays, HDAC6 deficiency or small molecule inhibition by the selective HDAC6 inhibitors tubacin or tubastatin A was found to significantly impede tumor growth. However, tubacin was more effective at inhibiting tumor growth than tubastatin A or HDAC6 deficiency. The superior anti-tumor activity of tubacin was linked to its ability to not only inhibit accumulation of mutant FGFR3, but also to cause robust downregulation of MYC and cyclin D1, and to induce a DNA damage response and apoptosis. Neither HDAC6 deficiency nor treatment with tubastatin A altered MYC or cyclin D1 levels, and neither induced a DNA damage response or apoptosis. Thus while tubacin and tubastatin A inhibit HDAC6 with similar selectivity and potency, our results reveal unique HDAC6-independent activities of tubacin that likely contribute to its potent anti-tumor activity.
