S., Fray, R. G., Rakha, E. A., & Mongan, N. P. (2024). The role of the ALKBH5 RNA demethylase in invasive breast cancer. Discover Oncology, 15(1), Article 343. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12672-024-01205-8

Background: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal RNA modification and is involved in regulation of RNA and protein expression. AlkB family member 5 (ALKBH5) is a m6A demethylase. Given the important role of m6A in biological mechanism... Read More about The role of the ALKBH5 RNA demethylase in invasive breast cancer.

The KDM5B and KDM1A lysine demethylases cooperate in regulating androgen receptor expression and signalling in prostate cancer (2023)
Journal Article
Metzler, V. M., de Brot, S., Haigh, D. B., Woodcock, C. L., Lothion-Roy, J., Harris, A. E., …Jeyapalan, J. N. (2023). The KDM5B and KDM1A lysine demethylases cooperate in regulating androgen receptor expression and signalling in prostate cancer. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 11, Article 1116424. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2023.1116424

Histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation is key epigenetic mark associated with active transcription and is a substrate for the KDM1A/LSD1 and KDM5B/JARID1B lysine demethylases. Increased expression of KDM1A and KDM5B is implicated in many cancer types...
