Abstract

Recently discovered epigenetic modification lysine lactylation contributes to tumor development and progression in several types of cancer. In addition to the tumor-intrinsic effects, histone lactylation may mediate tumor microenvironment remodeling and immune evasion. In this study, we observed elevated pan-lysine lactylation and histone H3 lysine 18 lactylation (H3K18la) levels in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues, which was positively correlated with poor patient prognosis. Interruption of glycolysis by 2-deoxy-D-glucose and oxamate treatment and silencing of lactate dehydrogenase A and lactate dehydrogenase B reduced H3K18la levels and circumvented immune evasion of NSCLC cells by enhancing CD8+…
