Abstract
Enhancers constitute a vital category of cis-regulatory elements with a Mediator complex within DNA sequences, orchestrating gene expression by activating promoters. In the development of T cells, some enhancers regulate the critical genes, which might also regulate T cell malignant lesions. This review is to comprehensively elucidate the contributions of enhancers in both normal T cell development and its malignant pathogenesis, proposing the idea that the precise subunits of the Mediator complex are the potential drug target for disrupting the specific gene enhancer for T cell malignant diseases.
增强子是 DNA 序列中具有 Mediator 复合物的一类重要顺式调控元件，通过激活启动子来协调基因表达。在T细胞的发育过程中，一些增强子调控着关键基因，也可能调控着T细胞的恶性病变。本综述旨在全面阐明增强子在正常T细胞发育及其恶性发病机制中的贡献，提出Mediator复合物的精确亚基是破坏特定基因增强子以治疗T细胞恶性疾病的潜在药物靶点的观点。
期刊介绍：
Cell Death Discovery is a multidisciplinary, international, online-only, open access journal, dedicated to publishing research at the intersection of medicine with biochemistry, pharmacology, immunology, cell biology and cell death, provided it is scientifically sound. The unrestricted access to research findings in Cell Death Discovery will foster a dynamic and highly productive dialogue between basic scientists and clinicians, as well as researchers in industry with a focus on cancer, neurobiology and inflammation research. As an official journal of the Cell Death Differentiation Association (ADMC), Cell Death Discovery will build upon the success of Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease in publishing important peer-reviewed original research, timely reviews and editorial commentary.
Cell Death Discovery is committed to increasing the reproducibility of research. To this end, in conjunction with its sister journals Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease, Cell Death Discovery provides a unique forum for scientists as well as clinicians and members of the pharmaceutical and biotechnical industry. It is committed to the rapid publication of high quality original papers that relate to these subjects, together with topical, usually solicited, reviews, editorial correspondence and occasional commentaries on controversial and scientifically informative issues.
