Usage Information
Abstract
Members of the type 2 histone lysine methyltransferase family (KMT2s) are key drivers of enhancer activation and are the most mutated group of epigenetic regulators in different cancer types. Within this family, KMT2C and KMT2D have the highest mutational incidence across various cancers. To evaluate their role in gastric cancer, Wang et al. developed a Pten deficiency–driven genetically engineered mouse model with inducible loss of Kmt2c and Kmt2d in gastric epithelial cells. Through extensive in vitro, in vivo, and in silico analyses, the authors revealed that the concomitant loss of Kmt2c and Kmt2d promotes gastric carcinogenesis while enhancing antigen presentation and sensitivity to immunotherapy and targeted approaches like mTOR inhibition, highlighting the tumor-suppressive roles of KMT2C/D in gastric cancer and uncovering a vulnerability for this dismal condition.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
