ALYREF enhances breast cancer progression by regulating EZH2. (PubMed, Heliyon)
ALYREF increased cell viability and anchorage-independent growth while decreasing apoptosis by regulating the mRNA expression and protein levels of enhancer of zeste 2 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit (EZH2), which promotes hormone receptor-positive breast cancer and CMTs via epigenetic modifications. This suggests that ALYREF may function as a contributing factor to malignant transformation in both CMT and human breast cancer.

Transient EZH2 suppression by Tazemetostat during in vitro expansion maintains T-cell stemness and improves adoptive T-cell therapy. (PubMed, Cancer Immunol Res)
In a murine melanoma model, T cells depleted of EZH2 induced poor tumor control, whereas adoptively transferred T cells pretreated with tazemetostat exhibited superior antitumor immunity, especially when used in combination with anti-PD-1 blockade. Collectively, these data highlight the potential of transient epigenetic reprogramming by EZH2 inhibition to enhance adoptive T-cell immunotherapy.

LncRNA MALAT1 Regulates USP22 Expression Through EZH2-Mediated H3K27me3 Modification to Accentuate Sepsis-Induced Myocardial Dysfunction. (PubMed, Cardiovasc Toxicol)
EZH2 elevation aggravated the cardiac injury in SIMD rats, while USP22 upregulation inhibited the effect of EZH2, which reduced the cardiac injury in SIMD rats. Taken together, MALAT1 decreased USP22 expression by interacting with EZH2, thereby worsening SIMD, highlighting an attractive therapeutic strategy for SIMD.

Together our results suggest that EZH2 has a tumor suppressor function in DMG and warrants caution in clinical translation of EZH2 inhibitors to treat patients with DMG.

[VIRTUAL] Predicting Resistance to the Combination of ATO and ATRA in APL Patients with PML-Rara Fusions, Using a Computational Biology Modeling Approach: Mycare-021-01 (ASH 2020)
The fusion confers a selective sensitivity to the targeted drugs, arsenic trioxide (ATO) and all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), with response rates over 90% (PMID: 31635329)...Predicting non-response to ATO and ATRA in patients with PML-RARA fusion up-front could prevent ineffective treatment, avoid unnecessary adverse events and reduce treatment costs. Additionally, computational modeling can identify new mechanisms of resistance and suggest alternative regimens for non-responding patients by targeting the patient-specific disease biomarkers unique to each.
