Amongst the different types of DNA damage, double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most harmful type of lesion that attenuates cellular proliferation. DSBs are repaired by two major pathways—homologous recombination (HR), and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and in some cases by microhomology-mediated end-joining (MMEJ). Preference of the pathway depends on multiple parameters including site of the DNA damage, the cell cycle phase and topology of the DNA lesion. Deregulated repair response contributes to genomic instability resulting in a plethora of diseases including cancer. This review discusses the different molecular players of HR, NHEJ, and MMEJ pathways that control the switch among the different DSB repair pathways. We also highlight the various functions of chromatin modifications in modulating repair response and how deregulated DNA damage repair response may promote oncogenic transformation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50603,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Pharmacology","volume":"80 ","pages":"Article 102496"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142900094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Histones, core components of chromatin and substrates for chromatin-modifying enzymes, play crucial roles in oncogenesis when misregulated or mutated. This is particularly pronounced in pediatric hind brain cancers, some of which are driven primarily by the oncohistone H3K27M and the recently identified oncohistone-mimic protein CXorf67/EZHIP. Notably, H3K27M and EZHIP-driven cancers exhibit low mutation burdens, highlighting the enigmatic role of non-mutational epigenetic reprogramming in oncogenesis beyond traditional paradigms of oncogene activation and tumor suppressor loss. Here, we review the impact of H3K27M and EZHIP-driven cancer mechanisms on chromatin and transcriptional dysregulation leading to aberrant cell fate determination, and their potential influence beyond gene activity, affecting broader cellular pathways. Illuminating these mechanisms is crucial for advancing treatment options for pediatric brain cancers, where therapeutic regimens are poorly defined.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50603,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Pharmacology","volume":"81 ","pages":"Article 102505"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143061417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
