摘要:How cells sense and respond to environmental changes is still a key question.It has been identified that cellular metabolism is an important modifier of various epigenetic modifications,such as DNA methylation,histone methylation and acetylation and RNA N6-methyladenosine(m6A)methylation.This closely links the environmental nutrient availability to the maintenance of chromatin struc-ture and gene expression,and is crucial to regulate cellular homeostasis,cell growth and differentiation.Cancer meta-bolic reprogramming and epigenetic alterations are widely observed,and facilitate cancer development and progres-sion.In cancer cells,oncogenic signaling-driven metabolic reprogramming modifies the epigenetic landscape via changes in the key metabolite levels.In this review,we briefly summarized the current evidence that the abundance of key metabolites,such as S-adenosyl methionine(SAM),acetyl-CoA,α-ketoglutarate(α-KG),2-hydroxyglutarate(2-HG),uri-dine diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine(UDP-GlcNAc)and lactate,affected by metabolic reprogramming plays an important role in dynamically regulating epigenetic modifi-cations in cancer.An improved understanding of the roles of metabolic reprogramming in epigenetic regulation can contribute to uncover the underlying mechanisms of meta-bolic reprogramming in cancer development and identify the potential targets for cancer therapies.
