摘 要:Digestive cancers are the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide and have high risks of morbidity and *** methylation,which is mediated mainly by lysine methyltransferases,lysine demethylases,and protein arginine methyltransferases,has emerged as an essential mechanism regulating pathological processes in digestive *** certain conditions,aberrant expression of these modifiers leads to abnormal histone methylation or demethylation in the corresponding cancer-related genes,which contributes to different processes and phenotypes,such as carcinogenesis,proliferation,metabolic reprogramming,epithelial–mesenchymal transition,invasion,and migration,during digestive cancer *** this review,we focus on the association between histone methylation regulation and the development of digestive cancers,including gastric cancer,liver cancer,pancreatic cancer,and colorectal cancer,as well as on its clinical application prospects,aiming to provide a new perspective on the management of digestive cancers.
