Targeting the epigenetic addiction of Merkel cell carcinoma.
EMBO Molecular Medicine 2020 November 7
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare but very aggressive neuroendocrine cancer of the skin, with very limited therapeutic options. Although immunotherapy is effective in some cases, there is an unmet need for new therapeutic approaches in MCCs. In this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine, Leiendecker et al identify a selective vulnerability of MCC for inhibitors of the lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (LSD1). LSD1 inhibitors promote differentiation of tumor cells toward normal Merkel cell fate, impairing tumor cell growth in vivo, and opening new avenues for the treatment of patients with MCC.
