Epigenetic regulation of innate immune cells in the tumor immune microenvironment.
Description
In natural killer (NK) cells, histone methyltransferases (ASH1L and JARID2) and histone demethylases (KDM6B and UTY) promote NK activation via upregulating activation-related gene expressions. By contrast, EZH2 and DNMTs suppress the expression of activating NK receptors, such as NKG2D. In macrophages, activation of monocyte (M0) is positively regulated by SETD4 and negatively regulated by ASH1L, SMYD2, and SMYD5, respectively.
