“…Enhancers are known as tissue-specific regulators of gene expression during cell differentiation and cancer development (33, 38, 40, 41). Enhancers are commonly identified as genomic elements enriched by histone modification (H3K27ac and different H3K4me isoforms), predominantly hypomethylated (42, 43), and occupied by various transcription factors, BRD4 (BET bromodomain protein, an activator of RNA polymerase II - PolII), MED1 (PolII transcription subunit) proteins, and PolII itself (33). H3K27ac enrichment at enhancer regions is recognized by BRD4, whose inhibition leads to a dysregulation in gene expression of oncogenes such as MYC, MYB, MMP9, BCL2, and CCND1 (40, 41, 44, 45).…”
