Epigenetic profiling of well differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcoma identifies H3K9me3 and Kruppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) as determinants of aggressiveness in sarcoma (expression)

Little is known about the epigenomics of liposarcoma (LPS). Here, we profiled the global expression of 9 epigenetic marks in well differentiated (WD) and dedifferentiated (DD) LPS from 151 patients and found increased H3K9me3 among DDLPS tumors. We performed ChIP-seqand gene expression profiling of patient derived cell lines to discover functionally significant regions of differential H3K9me3 enrichment between WDLPS and DDLPS associated with concomitant gene expression changes.
