Neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) has emerged to play parallel roles in both neurobiology and oncology. Apart from receptor-mediated signaling transduction pattern, serotonin can be covalently integrated into histone (the post-translational modification known as histone sero...

SOX2 is not only a pioneer transcription factor with critical roles in stem cell function and cell reprogramming but also a potent oncogene for a multitude of squamous cancers. How SOX2 exerts a potent oncogenic activity in squamous lineage is largely unknown. Here we uncovered SOX2 a p...

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) refers to nervous system damage caused by perinatal hypoxia, which is the major cause of long-term neuro-developmental disorders in surviving infants. However, the mechanisms still require further investigation. In this study, we found that the butan...

This work investigates epigenetic driven lipid metabolic reprogramming in gastric carcinoma. We characterize that histone H3K4me3 demethylase RBP2 transcriptionally activates PPARgama by binding to its promoter region,thereby promoting lipogenic gene expression and intracellular lipid accumulatio...

Cycloleucine (CL) is a methyl donor inhibitor. Our previous findings showed that CL could affect meiotic maturation and developmental potency of porcine oocytes by reducing nucleic acid N6-methyladenosine (m6A) epigenetic modification level. However, the effects of CL on porcine male reproduction...
