Histone lysine demethylase 4 (KDM4) enzymes are frequently overexpressed in cancer and are considered to be promising therapeutic targets. QC6352, which is widely used as a best-in-class KDM4 chemical probe, shows potent antitumor activity across cancer models. Using comprehensive chemical biology approaches in gliobla...

Homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 4 (HIPK4) remains an understudied member of the dark kinome. While genetic knockout studies suggest its involvement in spermiogenesis and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, whether these cellular functions can be recapitulated by pharmacological inhibition remains to be determin...
