Histone modifying enzymes confer epigenetic marks, directing the changes in gene expression required for diverse cellular processes. Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) functions as a transcriptional coregulator by demethylating histone H3 on lysine 4 and lysine 9. Analyzing transcriptomes on microarrays, we identified genes which represent inflammatory-related targets of LSD1. We demonstrate a repressive role of LSD1 in proinflammatory cytokine expression such as IL1α, IL1β, IL6 and IL8 and cl ...[more]
