Abstract
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer for which therapeutic options are very limited. A new study (Augert et al. Sci. Signal. 2019;12:eaau2922) shows that inhibition of the LSD1 demethylase can induce derepression of NOTCH receptor genes and subsequent activation of the NOTCH pathway, potently suppressing the growth of SCLC.Entities:
