malfunction | PHF8 knockdown induces DNA damage and apoptosis in lung cancer cells. miR-21 knockdown blocks the effects of PHF8 on proliferation and apoptosis of lung cancer cells. Cell proliferation and colonyforming activity are markedly reduced when PHF8 is knocked down in A-549, LC-AI, and NCI-H292 cells | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | PHF8 is a JmjC domain-containing protein and erases repressive histone marks including H4K20me1 and H3K9me1/2. It binds to H3K4me3, an active histone mark usually located at transcription start sites (TSSs), through its plant homeo-domain, and is thus recruited and enriched in gene promoters. PHF8 is involved in the development of several types of cancer, including leukemia, prostate cancer, and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. PHF8 promotes miR-21 expression in human lung cancer, and PHF8 promotes lung cancer cell growth and survival by regulating miR-21. PHF8 is an oncogenic protein in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is upregulated in human NSCLC tissues. PHF8 regulates lung cancer cell growth and transformation. High PHF8 expression predicts poor survival | Homo sapiens |
