| Core Tip |
In this study, we have found that EPZ020411 suppresses the growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. Mechanistically, EPZ020411 downregulates transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) and inhibits the JNK/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling pathway. Notably, TGM2 overexpression partially reverses these effects, highlighting its critical role as a downstream mediator. Overall, this study identified a novel protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6)-TGM2-MAPK regulatory axis and provided a preliminary experimental basis for the potential of targeting PRMT6 in CRC, and new insights into the potential of targeting PRMT6 as a therapeutic strategy for CRC. |
