Overview of Gene Research
SMYD3, a member of the SMYD lysine methylase family, is a chromatin modifier. It methylates various histone (such as H3K4, H4K5, H4K20) and non-histone (like VEGFR, HER2, MAP3K2, ER) targets. It is involved in epigenetic regulation and signaling pathways, playing a significant role in carcinogenesis. Its upregulation has been proposed as a prognostic marker in various solid cancers [1,2].
SMYD3-associated regulatory pathways have been studied in different cancers. In liver and colon tumors, nuclear-localized SMYD3 acts as a transcriptional amplifier of oncogenes and genes related to cell proliferation and metastasis [3]. In lung and pancreatic cancer, cytoplasmic SMYD3 potentiates oncogenic Ras/ERK signaling via MAP3K2 methylation [3]. In small cell lung cancer, SMYD3 impedes sensitivity to alkylation damage through RNF113A methylation-phosphorylation cross-talk, and its inhibition restores vulnerability to chemotherapy [4]. In HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, SMYD3 represses the tumor-intrinsic interferon response, and its depletion increases sensitivity to anti-PD-1 therapy [5]. In prostate cancer, the SMYD3-MAP3K2 signaling axis promotes tumor aggressiveness and metastasis [6]. A meta-analysis showed that SMYD3 overexpression is significantly associated with poor overall survival, lymph node metastasis, larger tumor size, and advanced TNM stage in various cancers [7].
In conclusion, SMYD3 is a key regulator in cancer. Its functions in promoting tumorigenesis, metastasis, and chemoresistance across different cancer types are well-demonstrated through in vivo and clinical studies. Understanding the role of SMYD3 in these disease conditions, as revealed by functional studies including gene knockout-related models, may provide new therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment.
