Inhibitors of LSD1 target demethylase-independent activity to induce differentiation in acute myeloid leukemia [RNA-Seq experiments]. Homo sapiens

To determine whether changes in histone modifications directly correlate with changes in transcription, THP1 AML cells were treated with a potent and selective LSD1 inhibitor (OG86) and then subjected to concomitant RNA sequencing (RNAseq) and ChIP sequencing (ChIPseq) for monomethyl-, dimethyl- and trimethyl histone H3 modifications. Overall design: THP1 AML cells were treated with 250nM OG86 or DMSO vehicle for 24 hours in semi-solid culture. Two technical replicates were analysed for each sample.
