DNA Methylation profiling in luminal breast cancer cells treated with a novel KDM5 inhibitor, 5-aza-2' Deoxycytidine, or both.

ABSTRACT: Recently, the H3K4 demethylase, KDM5B, was shown to be amplified and overexpressed in luminal breast cancer, suggesting it might constitute a potential cancer therapy target. Here, we characterize, in breast cancer cells, the molecular effects of a recently developed small-molecule inhibitor of the KDM5 family of proteins, either alone, or in combination with the DNA demethylating agent 5-aza-2’ deoxycytidine (DAC). Alone, the KDM5 inhibitor (KDM5i) increased expression of a small number of genes, but when combined with DAC, the drug enhanced the effects of the latter for increasing expression of hundreds of DAC responsive genes. To determine if this combinatorial action was the result of enhanced DNA demethylation, we profiled genome-wide DNA methylation in cells treated with KDM5i, DAC, or both. Methylation levels at approximately 450,000 unique CpG loci were detected using the Infinium Illumina HumanMethylation 450 array. We found that KDM5i did not significantly affect DNA methylation either alone, or in combination with DAC.
