Fig. 7From: SETD8, a frequently mutated gene in cervical cancer, enhances cisplatin sensitivity by impairing DNA repairSchematic diagram of SETD8 inhibition sensitizes cervical cancer cells to cisplatin treatment. Downregulation of SETD8 significantly reduces the mono-methylation level of H4K20 (H4K20me1) and double-methylation level of H4K20 (H4K20me2) in cervical cancer and further reduces the recruitment of the DNA damage repair factor 53BP1, inhibits the non-homologous end joining repair pathway (NHEJ), resulting in increased cisplatin-induced DNA damageBack to article page
