Prognostic value of immunohistochemical staining for H3K27me3 and EZH2 in astrocytoma, IDH-mutant. (PubMed, J Neurooncol)
Positivity for H3K27me3, especially double positivity for H3K27me3 and EZH2, could be a poor prognostic factor for astrocytoma, IDH-mutant. These results suggest the utility of H3K27me3 and EZH2 as candidate markers for estimating the malignancy of astrocytoma, IDH-mutant.

siRNA treatment targeting integrin α11 overexpressed via EZH2-driven axis inhibits drug-resistant breast cancer progression. (PubMed, Breast Cancer Res)
Our findings elucidate that integrin α11 is upregulated by EZH2, forming a positive feedback circuit involving FAK-GLI-1 and contributing to drug resistance, cancer stem cell survival and EMT. Taken together, the results suggest integrin α11 as a promising prognostic marker and a powerful therapeutic target for drug-resistant breast cancer.

EZH2 immunoexpression in pleomorphic adenoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma and clinicopathological features. (PubMed, Braz Oral Res)
The highest mean values of EZH2 were observed in cases with local metastasis, recurrence, perineural invasion, and predominantly cribriform growth pattern without solid areas. EZH2 is a potential marker of malignancy.

Regulation of EZH2 Expression by INPP4B in Normal Prostate and Primary Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Like PTEN, p53 protein expression and phosphorylation of Akt in Inpp4b murine prostates were elevated. Taken together, the loss of INPP4B in the prostate leads to overlapping and distinct changes in tumor suppressor and oncogenic downstream signaling.

EZH2 protein expression in early hormone receptor positive HER2 negative breast cancer with high recurrence score (SABCS 2023)
In this single institution cohort of pts with early HR+/HER2- BC and high RS, EZH2 protein expression and younger age were associated with development of distant metastases. This preliminary data suggests that determination of EZH2 expression levels may assist in risk stratification of pts with high RS. This should be investigated in a larger data set.

Phosphorylation of EZH2 differs HER2-positive breast cancer invasiveness in a site-specific manner. (PubMed, BMC Cancer)
Activation of phosphorylated EZH2-S21 site in nucleus would be a potential predictor of HER2-positve BC and poor efficacy of HER2-target therapy. These results point to a PRC2-independent non-epigenetic mechanism and therapeutic strategy of EZH2 in HER2-positive BC.

Analysis on EZH2: mechanism identification of related CeRNA and its immunoassay in hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, BMC Med Genomics)
This study revealed seven potential pathways of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2)-related ceRNA mechanisms: lncRNA (SNHG3, 6) -Mir-101-3P-ezh2; lncRNA (SNHG12, RNF216P1)-let-7c-5p-EZH2. We also analyzed the immunity and drug sensitivity of EZH2. Our study proves that EZH2 still has great research prospects in HCC.

An EZH2-NF-κB regulatory axis drives expression of pro-oncogenic gene signatures in triple negative breast cancer. (PubMed, iScience)
Interestingly, EZH2-NF-κB positive regulation of genes and stemness does not require PRC2. This study provides new insight into pro-oncogenic regulatory functions for EZH2 in breast cancer through PRC2-independent, and NF-κB-dependent regulatory mechanisms.

Evaluation of Immunohistochemical Expression of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) and Its Association With Clinicopathological Variables in Carcinoma Cervix. (PubMed, Cureus)
 The results of our study affirm that a significant association exists between immunohistochemical expression of EZH2 with tumor grade, histological subtype, lymphnode metastasis, and FIGO stage which can be utilized in future studies with larger sample size to further strengthen the association of EZH2 immunoexpression in cancer cervix patients that may aid in the development of the targeted therapy in near future.
