GSE99175: Selectively targeting bromodomain and extraterminal proteins for degradation as a novel anti-glioblastoma strategy [RNA-seq]

Bulk RNA sequencing

Purpose: Characterization of mechanism and vulnerability of BET protein dependency in GBM cells. Methods: ChIP-seq and RNA-seq were performed on GBM cells at different time points following treatment with dBET6, a novel BET protein degrader. The transcriptome responses of parental and JQ1-resistant U87 cells to JQ1 and dBET6 were compared as well. Result: This study reveals crucial functions of BET proteins and provides the rationale and therapeutic merits of targeted degradation of BET proteins by dBET6 in GBM.
