| Summary: | Abstract Autophagy dysfunction is associated with changes in autophagy-related genes. Various factors are connected to autophagy, and the mechanism regulating autophagy is highly complicated. Epigenetic changes, such as aberrant expression of histone demethylase, are actively associated not only with oncogenesis but also with inflammatory responses. Among post-translational modifications, histone lysine methylation holds significant importance. There are over 30 members of histone lysine demethylases (KDMs), which act as epigenetic regulators in physiological processes and diseases. Importantly, KDMs are abnormally expressed in the regulation of cellular autophagy and inflammation, representing a crucial mechanism affecting inflammation-related diseases. This article reviewed the function of KDMs proteins in autophagy and inflammation. Specifically, It focused on the specific regulatory mechanisms underlying the activation or inhibition of autophagy, as well as their abnormal expression in inflammatory responses. By analyzing each KDM in epigenetic modification, this review provides a reliable theoretical basis for clinical decision marking regarding autophagy abnormalities and inflammatory diseases. |
