Abstract:SummaryEpithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) drives a loss of epithelial traits by neoplastic cells enabling metastasis and recurrence in cancer. HOTAIR emerged as one of the most renowned long noncoding RNAs promoting EMT mostly as a scaffold for PRC2 and repressive histone H3 Lys27 methylation at gene promoters. In addition to PRC2, HOTAIR interacts with the Lsd1 lysine demethylase, a known epigenetic regulator of cell fate during development and differentiation. However, Lsd1 role in HOTAIR function is… Show more
